Acquainting \°, Keith's Cultivated Blueberries 

Larger Than Wild Blueberries 
- Keith's Cultivated Blueberries are at least five times 
larger than the wild Blueberry or ‘/Huckleberry.” 
Note the size of the berries on page 4 (three berries 
_ cover 2 inches) and on front cover. Just a few ber- 
ries fill a small teacup. Berries on these pages are 
natural size. 
Can Be Grown Anywhere 
We used to think Blueberries could ONLY be grown 
in marshes. We were wrong, for NOW, with Keith's 
Cultivated Blueberry bushes, they can be easily 
grown anywhere about your home place—in the 
garden, along your walks or drives, on your lawn— 
anywhere Roses, Shrubs, etc., are grown. (See page 
7.) 
Bear for 4 to 5 Weeks 
All the berries on Keith’s Cultivated Blueberry bushes 
DO NOT RIPEN at one time—they ripen continuously 
for 4 to 5 weeks. One cluster begins here, another 
there, all over the bush, and thus you can pick 
those big, ripe, tasty berries for weeks. 
Ideal for Your Summer Home 
Keith’s Cultivated Blueberries are ideal for your 
summer home for they ripen their berries at the 
time you are out there—July, August into September. 
And the bushes require so little 
care, and most of- this can be 
done during the time you are 
there. 
Light Blueberry 
Muffins 
4 cup butter or vegetable short- 
ening, 1/3 cup sugar, 1-egg, 
22/3 cups flour, 4 teaspoonfuls 
baking powder, 12 teaspoonful 
salt, 1 cup milk, 1 cup berries. 
Cream butter and sugar. Add 
beaten egg, sift dry ingredients 
and add alternately with milk. 
Reserve little of flour to mix 
with berries before adding to 
batter. Bake in hot oven, 375 
degrees. Blueberries can be 
added to any favorite muffin re- 
ceipt. 


. Cultivated Blueberries growing in a galvanized trough 24 by 24 
poche by 8 feet long, filled with prepared soil (see page 7). Planted two 
years. 5-year bushes used. Note height and spread, 4 to 6 feet tall. Lots 
of berries. ' 
One Planting Lasts For Years 
set Keith’s Cultivated Blueberry Bushes and you are 
through planting for years. No replacing the bushes 
every year or so as you would Raspkerries, etc. 
Bushes grow and produce almost a lifetime. Need 
very little care—just an occasional thinning out and 
cutting back of the older canes, and mulching about 
the base to keep the soil moist. 
Very Profitable to Grow 
The berries from Keith's Cultivated Blueberries are 
so large and attractive they readily sell for 35c to 
45c per pint, and when the mature bushes (some- 
times done by 9-yr. bushes) produce from 15,000 to 
20,000 pints per acre, there is big money in growing 
them—$4,000 and up per acre. 
Fine for Home Uses 
You'll be delighted by the mild sweet flavor of the 
Cultivated Blueberries. They are so sweet that many 
housewives find it unnecessary to use much sugar in 
serving them fresh or cooked. They are unsurpassed 
for making pies or muffins, and they “turn out’ 
grand in freezing. We have been placing them in 
our locker at the freezing plant for over three years, 
and each time they ‘’turn‘ out’ just fine—as tasty, 
firm, juicy and fresh as the day we put them in. 

Two favorite dishes for Blueberries. Mrs. Keith made these from frozen 
Blueberries (see package in back) just before Christmas. Oh boy! Weren’t . 
they good!
