1944 Price List of 
Fine Quality Strawberry Plants 
f Agricul 

For the season of 1944 we have to offer our 
customers some of the finest, new rooted 
plants we have ever sold, grown from hardy, 
vigorous stock. Our plants are carefully se- 
lected, well cared for, cultivated often, then 
hoed and weeded by hand. This makes long 
healthy roots. Plants such as we offer will be 
sure to produce an extra large crop of berries. 
All varieties we sell have been grown by us 
over a long period and have proved to be well 
adapted to our New England climate and 
heavy yielders of good quality berries suitable 
for market and home use. 
This year every garden should have enough 
strawberry plants so that the whole family 
can have an abundance of fresh fruit in sea- 
son. They are rich in healthful vitamins as 
well as delicious. With most foods rationed 
and prices exteremely high it becomes neces- 
sary for every farmer to plan as never be- 
fore to raise just as much food as he is able. 
It is a mistake to omit strawberries as they 
are easily grown, not bothered by insects and 
so require no spraying or dusting. Any surplus 
berries will find a ready market. 
HOWARD 17 OR PREMIER 
Howard 17 or Premier, as it is often called, 
is one of the best known varieties. It is a 
sure cropper of large firm berries. It is one 
of the earliest varieties we raise. The first 
berries are double; later ones are pointed. The 
crop they bear will surprise you.
