Seven years ago I began experimenting to see if it 
were possible to get an everbearing strawberry as 
large as the Gem or Mastadon and as sweet at the 
Wayzata, one that would set runners freely. Today 
we have several acres of such a berry. 
The Berries Are Large 
Yes, they are.as large as the Wayzata and Gem 
and ripen even all through the berry, no green tips 
or part green and part ripe. 
Early Ripening 
The first berry to get ripe on our place, and goes 
to work about 60 days after setting out plants. 
It doesn’t take long to stem a quart of ‘Brunes 
Marvel” as they are free-stem; no core left in the 
berry. Think what this means to the busy house- 
wife getiing berries ready to serve. 
Sweetness 
Saving of sugar in canning and serving, they take 
only % the sugar for canning, which is a big saving. 
Keeping Qualities 
Far ahead of other everbearers we have raised. 
Stand Dry Weather Better 
They go down for moisture as roots are exception- 
ally long. Some of them have measured 17 inches. 
Heavy Foliage for Protection 
Foliage is heavy enough on our new berry that it 
helps protect the berries against sunscald and frost.

The “Brunes Marvel” Is Different 
Often we have our customers come up to our 
berry stand and say, “Wish I could eat strawberries.” 
We ask them to try our new berry, and those that 
do come for more and say, “these berries don’t cause 
me any pain!’’ We have several of our tourist cus- 
tomers who haven't been able to eat strawberries 
for years. Queer as it seems, they can eat their 
fill of the “Brunes Marvel’ without distress.
