Daniels 
Certified Strawberries 
Sure to Grow—Sure to Bear 
Daniels hardy, northern grown straw- 
berry plants have been produced on 
specially selected and prepared soils to 
meet the needs of planters here in the 
Northwest. Strawberry plants are the 
most perishable of all fruit plants. Long 
shipments from distant points, with all 
too frequent delays, usually mean de- 
creased vitality. PLAY SAFE! Use 
Daniels fresh dug, carefully packed 
plants. THEY GIVE GROWING SAT- 
ISFACTION.

WE RECOMMEND GEM 
AS BEING THE MOST 
WIDELY SATISFACTORY 
EVERBEARING VARIETY 
FOR GENERAL USE. 
Strawberries have been so high priced the past two seasons that few people 
could afford them, even if they could find them. Shortage of labor and plants 
promise that this condition will continue for several seasons to come. 
MORAL: GROW YOUR OWN! 

Strawberries are easy to grow 
they may be grown in a very limited space— 
and they produce so quickly. Everbearers planted this Spring will give abundant 
fruit this same Summer and Fall. 
SO, Plant this Spring. But better order early as supplies are short. 
Strawberry Culture 
There are two distinct types 
of strawberry plants, based on 
their fruiting season, the Ever- 
bearing and the Junebearing. 
The Junebearing varieties pro- 
duce a single heavy crop each 
year starting about the 10th to 
15th of June here in the upper 
Mississippi valley. The first 
crop is produced the year fol- 
lowing planting. The everbearing produces two 
crops each year. The first one starts within two 
or three months after planting. The second 
season the everbearing produces the regular 
June crop and then after a brief rest period 
starts again to produce the fall crop. In most 
varieties the fall crop starts to ripen in late 
July or early August and continues until fall 
frosts have destroyed the blossoms. 
Planting—Strawberries should be set out only 
in the spring, preferably late in April or early 
in May. The plants should be set with the 
roots fully spread, the crown at the exact dis- 
tance at which it grew previously and moist 
soil thoroughly packed against the roots. 
Probably the most widely used planting 

distances are as follows: Everbearers, 15 to 18 
inches apart, fows 3 to 33 feet apart; Junebear- 
ers, 18 to 24 inches apart, rows 4 feet apart. In 
small areas where hand culture methods are 
used, these planting distances may be consider- 
ably reduced to meet the limitations of the 
garden size.
