8 BRENTWooD BERRY GARDENS 

MISSIONARY STRAWBERRY 
This variety is sometimes called CAROLINA and on the Los Angeles market is 
known as “MISSION”. It has long been a commercial variety in Southern California 
and is a little earlier than Klondike on light soil. 
AROMA STRAWBERRY 
This is a late variety, large, very productive and a good shipper. Its first crop 
comes in at about the end of the first Klondike crop, thus filling in the gap between 
Klondike’s crops. Has been a successful commercial berry in Southern California for 
many years. 
PREMIER STRAWBERRY 
Premier has long been a standard variety in the East. Very early, it is said to 
be a great money maker with its early crop of berries, bringing top prices. Said to 
be very healthy and deep rooted, an excellent producer of large, bright red berries 
of firm texture. 
DUNLAP STRAWBERRY 
An old standby variety, still extensively planted in the East and regarded as 
one of the finest of strawberries. Berries of medium size, dark red and pointed in 
shape, highly flavored and ideal for canning. Plants said to be vigorous and tre- 
mendous yielders and resisting drouth and cold weather better than most varieties. 
COLEMAN'S PRESIDENT STRAWBERRY 
This new variety originated in Washington, where it is said to be in great demand 
for quick freezing, one processing firm, it is said, having contracted for 500,000 of the 
plants to distribute to its contract growers. 
Processors want a berry which, after freezing, will thaw out and be as much like 
a garden-fresh berry as possible. The new Coleman's President is said to meet these 
requirements better than any other berry on the market. After thawing it is said 
to be solid and firm, has a good color, and maintains its original sweetness and flavor. 
Shrinkage is practically nil, either from freezing or canning. 
We saw these berries growing at Fresno last spring, and the plants were simply 
loaded with blossoms and berries of all sizes from blossoms up to ripe berries. Mr. 
Sutton, the grower, writes that the main first crop lasted seven weeks, and they took 
off four tons from 34 acre, equal to 1000 trays of 12 baskets each. 
A Fresno man who bought four crates of these berries from Mr. Sutton for home 
freezing, wrote him: “We opened some of your frozen berries we have in the sharp 
room, and the RICH, SWEET FLAVOR, TASTE AND FIRM QUALITY COLEMAN'S 
PRESIDENT STRAWBERRIES HAVE, JUST CANNOT BE BEATEN.” 
Mr. Sutton wrote that they got 50c per tray over the market for these berries in 
Fresno.
