How to Grow Them: 
Wherever you have a few feet of space in the garden you can plant 
Strawberries and feel well repaid by having an abundance of their delli- 
cious fruit in season. You will find that your home grown fruit, that can be picked absolutely fresh, has a 
much finer and sweeter flavor than the shipped fruit or that picked several days before being eaten. 
Any good rich soil will grow Strawberries. Plant them in rows about 1% ft. and 8 ft. apart. Keep the soil well 
cultivated and hoed the first year and when the ground 
freezes up in the fall put on a medium to light mulch 
of straw or leaves. Water the plants when setting. Additional watering is desirable during extreme dry periods. 
of the summer. Rich well decomposed manure is best fertilizer. If not available then make spring application 
of any good commercial fertilizer rich in Nitrogen.

® Everbearing Varieties ° 
Gemzata The Aristocrat of all Strawberries 
Gemzata is the new heavy yielding everbearing 
Strawberry of today. The plants are very vigorous 
growers and produce large fruit in quantity during 
the summer and fall months. It makes new runner 
plants which also produce fruit same fall. The Gem- 
zata plant itself, is attractive with large ripe fruit, 
green berries and blossoms all at the same time. It 
has proven successful on a wide range of soils and 
succeeds better than any other varieties in adverse 
conditions. The large size and distinct flavor of the 
berries are perfect for serving with cream and sugar 
and for canning. 
Gem Surpasses other Everbearing varieties in that 
it thrives on all soils and throws out plenty 
of ‘‘runner plants” thus making a heavy fruiting row 
which begins to bear fruit six months after planting. 
Gem berries are all well rounded in shape, a 
striking red in color, seeds few and the flavor is 
outstanding—sweet and juicy—lacking the acidity of 
most other everbearers.
