GEM-—Big Profits 
Two Crops a Year 
Plant this spring—pick all sum- 
mer—you’ll get back the price paid 
for the plants, and most important, 
a big profit besides. You’ll harvest 
another fine crop the following June 
—two crops in one year. Unlike 
most everbearers, this variety is an 
excellent plant maker. The plants 
are very healthy and vigorous, pro- 
ducing an abundance of runners, 
which bear fruit the first season. The 
berries are large, bright red, firm, 
roundish in shape, rather tart but of 
good flavor and quality. Good for 
dessert or culinary uses. Very at- 
tractive in appearance and sell well 
on the fresh fruit markets. Our orig- 
inal stock was secured direct from 
the originator. Price: 12 for $1.25; 
25 for $2.25; 50 for $3.75; 100 for 
$5.00; 250 for $11.00; 500 for 
$21.00. 
As weather 
conditions 
govern the 
digging of all 
strawberry plants, 
these will be shipped 
separate in most 
cases. Therefore, do 
not become alarmed 
if the balance of 
your order does not 
accompany—this will 
be shipped later, or 
visa versa. 


MINNESOTA No.1166. Everbearing 
This is the latest of the New Everbearing strawberries being 
offered. Those who have tried it, state they prefer this variety to 
any Everbearer introduced to date. It also bears 60 to 90 days after 
planting—berries all summer and fall, followed by a fine crop the i 
following June. Plants are hardy, and produces runners freely. Minnesota 
Berries are large, long and pointed—in appearance it looks like the No. 1166 
Missionary berry that is so well known in the South. Berries are 
dark in color and perfectly red clear through—no green tips. Fruit 
is firm and very sweet. As the supply of this variety is very limited, 
would advise placing your order early so as to avoid disappointment. 
Price: 12 for $1.50; 25 for $2.50; 50 for $4.35; 100 for $7.50; 250 
for $15.00.
