Two Crops a Year 
The Berry that Really Produces 
Plant this spring—pick all summer—you’ll get back 
the price paid for the plants, and most important, a big 
profit besides. You’ll harvest another fine crop the fol- 
lowing June—two crops in one year. Plants set in May, 
1945, on August 15th are producing a wonderful crop 
of berries which are selling for $6.50 for a 24-pint crate 
on our local market. Will produce approxi- 
mately 100 crates per acre. Then, remem- 
ber, a big crop on the same plants next June. 
Unlike most everbearers, this variety is 
an excellent plant maker. The plants are 
very healthy and vigorous, producing 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 attractive in appear- 
ance and sell well on the fresh fruit markets. 
Our original stock was secured direct from 
the originator. Price: 25 for $1.25; 50 for 
$2.00; 100 for $3.50; 250 for $6.75; 500 for 
$11.50; 1,000 for $22.00; 2,000 for $40.00.

Mastodon 


Ripe Strawberries 
- 90 days after planting 
There is only one true Mastodon—the in- 
troducer’s original strain—we have it! 
Plants hardy and productive, producing 
runners freely for an everbearing variety. 
Berries large to very large, round, conic 
in shape, dark scarlet in color; flesh firm, 
excellent flavor. One of the largest, uniform 
size from beginning to end of season. Fruit 
continuously until freezing weather; bear 
full crop next spring after planting. 
Price: 1-Yr. plants, 25 for $1.50; 50 for $2.50; 
100 for $3.75; 250 for $8.75; 500 for 
$16.00; 1,000 for $30.00. 
Strong Clumps, 6 for 75c; 12 for $1.35; 25 
for $2.50. 
As weather conditions govern the digging of 
all strawberry plants, these will be shipped 
separate in most cases. Therefore, do not be- 
come alarmed if the balance of your order does 
not accompany—this will be shipped later, or 
vice versa.
