ADAMS 
A midseason to late variety, beginning to ripen its berries early in 
July and continuing bearing for five weeks. The bushes are hardy and 
healthy with an upright growth (5 to 6 ft). Berries are a deep blue- 
black, large (see picture above), attractive, with a good sweet 
flavor that everyone likes. 
How to Grow Cultivated Blueberries 
Garden Culture 
Set the bushes 4 feet apart (5 ft. better) 
in the row, spacing rows 5 feet apart. 
Better set at one end of garden or along 
walk or drive, or next to some building 
where they won't have to be disturbed for 
years. Dig the hole 24 inches across, 12 to 
16 inches deep and fill bottom half with a 
mixture of 1] part’ top soil and 2 parts 
Keith’s Acid Peat Humus. Leaf mold, soil 
from Huckleberry marsh, may be used if it 
is not acid enough, but we suggest our spe- 
cial Acid Peat Humus. Pack bottom mix- 
ture solid and set plant in middle of hole, 
fill in around roots, pack firm until hole is 
filled. Better leave a little depression on 
top to hold water during watering. Soak 
plant with lawn clippings, leaves, etc., after 
watering. Also read cultural directions in 
catalog. 
Field Culture 
Remember, the Blueberry must have an 
acid soil (pH 4.0 to 5.1) and plenty of 
water. Keep this in mind in selecting your 
soil for commercial plantings. A drained 
Blueberry (Huckleberry) marsh would be 
ideal. Growths of White Cedar, Leather- 
leaf, Red Maple, etc., are indications of a 
suitable soil. But to make sure always have 
the soil tested for acidity by your county 
agricultural agent. Some soils are found to 
be too acid and this can be corrected by the 
addition of lime. See your county agricul- 
tural agent. Low meadow lands are some- 
the soil and the job is done. Water there- 
after to keep the soil moist. Rainwater is 
best. To retain moisture, bank up around 














times suitable. Set the plants 5 feet in row, 
spacing rows 8 feet apart. Water table 
should be 30 to 48 inches below surface. 
Picking Cultivated Blueberries. 
This bush yielded 32 pints last 
summer. 


Blueberry Bushes 
Why wait 2 or 3 years for 
your Blueberries when you can 
set Keith’s 5-year, ready-to- 
bear bushes and have berries 
this July and August? These 
bushes have been grown and 
transplanted in our nursery rows 
for five years and are ready to 
fruit for you this summer. They 
will eliminate all that time 
and uncertainty when younger 
bushes are set. They will save 
you at least three years. Under 
favorable conditions they will 
fruit their third crcp of berries 
this summer. They come bundled 
in burlap with Keith’s Acid Peat 
Humus packed around their 
roots, which should be used in 
planting. Sent by express. 
Very Profitable 
The berries produced by Keith’s Cultivated Blue- 
berry bushes are so large and attractive that they 
readily sell for 60c to 7Oc per quart, and when 
mature bushes produce from 2,500 to 3,000 pints 
per acre (more often sold in pints than quarts), 
there is big money in growing them—$1,000.00 and 
up per acre. More profitable than Raspberries, 
Strawberries and other small fruits, when grown with 
care. 
Keith’s Acid Peat Humus 
Ideal for Blueberry Growing 
This Acid Peat Humus has the right 
acidity and contains the necessary organic 
matter and humus ideal for the successful 
growing of the Cultivated Blueberry. In it 
they will grow and produce their big, beau- 
tiful berries. We recommend it for this 
Purpose. It should be mixed 2 to 1 (in 
volume) with ordinary soil. The more acid 
and the more humus in your soil the less 
Keith’s Acid Peat Humus necessary. It is 
also very beneficial in building a lawn, en- 
riching your garden soil, and the soil around 
shrubs, roses, etc., and the growing of 
Strawberries. It’s a soil builder and makes 
plants grow. Price: 112-bu. bag, $1.50; 
4 or more at $1.35 each. Sent by express 
unless otherwise instructed. No discount, 
not prepaid.

RUBEL — The “Old Reliable Variety” 
Of all the Blueberry varieties that we have grown, the Rubel is the most sure 
to bear every year. It stands the most severe winter weather, has a long fruiting 
season (6 weeks), beginning with us in early July, and will bear more berries, one 
year with another, than most known varieties. Berries are large, uniform in size, 
with a pleasing Blueberry flavor. One of the best for pies, canning, preserves, etc. 
An early, constant bearer.
