ad FOR GROWING 
BLUEBERRIES 
Here’s a most valuable offer—three of our 6-Year, Bearing-Age Blueberry Bushes 
(2 Rubel and 1 Jersey), and a bag of Keith’s Acid Peat Humus, sufficient to properly 
plant them. They are 3 to 4 feet tall. Note large root system. 
Keith’s No. 1A Selected Blueberry Bushes 
(See picture above.) 
This is our Best Grade of Blueberry Bushes. Because of having more room to 
spread out in some places in the nursery row, these bushes are well branched, 
larger, have more fruiting buds and branches, and larger root systems than 
the No. 1 grade. They are SELECTED BUSHES. 
Why wait three or more years, as you would have to if you were to set 
younger bushes, when you can set Keith's 6-year bushes and have berries 
this coming July and August? These bushes have been transplanted and 
grown in our nursery rows for six years and are READY TO BEAR for you 
this summer. They eliminate all the time and uncertainty involved when 
younger bushes are set. They save you at least three years. They are from 
three to four years older than bushes offered in terms of height. In Keith's 
6-year Blueberry bushes you have AGE, BRANCHING, HEIGHT, PRODUCTION 
and LARGE ROOT SYSTEMS. The most saving and best buy for you. 
BLUEBERRIES 
Can Now be Grown in Your 
Garden or on Your Lawn 
Now you can grow all the Blueberries 
(often miscalled Huckleberries) you 
need right in your garden, along walks, 
next to the garage, any place you 
would grow shrubs or Roses. All you 
have to have is (1) an acid soil, (2) 
moist soil, and (3) liberal amount of 
humus in the soil. The kind of soil 
does not make so much difference as 
long as _ the above conditions are 
present. If your soil is not sufficiently 
acid (should be between 4.0 to 5.1 pH) 
it can be made so by adding Keith's 
Acid Peat Humus. It will also correct 
the humus deficiencies 
Pick Berries in Six Weeks 
All the berries on Keith's Cultivated 
Blueberry bushes do NOT RIPEN at one 
time—ripening continues for 4 to 5 
weeks. One cluster begins here, an- 
other there, over the bush, and thus 
you can pick ripe, tasty berries for 
weeks. To continue the season, set 
different varieties. 
Blueberries Ideal for Your 
Summer Home 
Keith's Cultivated Blueberries are 
ideal for your summer home, for they 
tipen their berries at the time you are 
out there—July and August, into Sep- 
tember. And the bushes require so 
little care. We highly recommend the 
Rubel variety for this purpose 
Grow Blueberries in 
Half Barrel 
Take a half barrel, or large tub and 
sink it in the soil even with the surface 
of the ground. Fill two-thirds full with 
a mixture of one part rich loam soil and 
two parts Keith’s Acid Peat Humus, 
pack firm, set bush in middle, and fill 
with mixture packed well. Keep the 
soil always moist with rain water. 
VERY PROFITABLE 
$1000 to $1500 Per Acre 
The berries produced by Keith's 
Cultivated Blueberry bushes are so 
large and attractive that they read- 
ily sell for 60c to 70c per quart, and 
when mature bushes produce from 
2500 to 3000 pints per acre (more 
often sold in pints than quarts), 
there is big money in growing them 
. .$1,000.00 and up per acre. More 
profitable than Raspberries, Straw- 
berries and other small fruits, when 
grown with care. 


There is nothing more 
pleasing to g:ow, pick 
and eat than Keith's 
Cultivated Blueberries 
RUBEL—The “Old Reliable’ Variety 
A midseason to late variety, beginning to ripen its berries early in 
July and continuing bearing for five weeks. The bushes are hardy 
and healthy with an upright growth (5 to 6 ft.). Berries are a deep 
blue-black, large (see picture above), attractive, with a good sweet 
flavor that everyone likes 
How to Grow Cultivated 
Blueberries 
Garden Culture 
Set the bushes 4 feet apart (5 ft. better) in the row, spacing 
rows 5 feet apart. Better set at one end of garden or along 
walk or drive, or next to some building where they won't have 
to be disturked for years. Dig the holes 24 inches across, 12 to 
16 inches deep ‘ind fiJ] bottom half with a mixture of 1 part 
top soil and 2 parts Keith's Acid Peat Humus. Leaf mold, soil 
from Huckleberry marsh, may be used if it is not acid enough, 
but we suggest our special Acid Peat Humus. Pack bottom 
mixture solid and set plant in middle of hole, fill in around 
roots, pack firm until hole is filled. Better leave a little 
depression on top to hold water during watering. Soak the 
soil and the job is done. Water thereafter to keep the soil 
moist, Rain water is best. To retain moisture, bank up around 
plant with lawn clippings, leaves, etc., after watering. Also 
read cultural directions on page 8. 
Field Culture 
Remember, the Blueberry must have an acid soil (pH 4.0 to 
5.1) and plenty of water. Keep this in mind in selecting your 
soil for commercial plantings. A drained Blueberry (Huckle- 
berry) marsh would be ideal. Growths of White Cedar, Leather- 
leaf, Red Maple, etc., are indications of a suitable soil. But to 
make sure always have the soil tested for acidity by your 
county agricultural agent. Some soils are found to be too acid 
and this can be corrected by the addition of lime. See your 
county agricultural agent. Low meadow lands are sometimes 
suitable. Set the plants 5 feet in row, spacing rows 8 feet 
apart. Water table should be 30 to 48 inches below surface.
