Blackberries 
Blackberries begin bearing the second year and under suit- 
able conditions may be depended upon for regular, profitable

ing the second year, increase as they become established, and

year.

Strawberries 
Strawberry plants are grown under irrigation at Sarcoxie. 
No other fruit gives such quick results as strawberries. 
Planted one spring, they give a full crop the next, and with 
proper care a patch lasts several years. Plant 2 ft. apart in 
the row, the rows 31/2 to 4 ft. apart; planted 2x4 ft. requires 
5,400 per acre. These plants are well rooted, properly cleaned 
and carefully packed. All varieties listed are perfect flow- 
ered and will bear alone.

riety in this section; very large; conical; glossy deep red,

ily; ships well; succeeds almost everywhere.

Grapes in the Home Garden 
Grapes often yield a few bunches the year after planting, 
and should give a fair crop the third year; with age they are 
very productive; in vineyard or garden, cultivated and pruned 
regularly, they yield larger bunches, but bear fair crops on 
fence, arbor or pergola. Scarcely any property is too small 
for a few vines. They succeed on almost any well drained 
soil of average fertility. Plant 8x8 or 8x10 ft. 
Concord. The most popular black grape; large, juicy, 
sweet; hardy, productive, vigorous;.mid to late August. 
Fredonia. Black; bunch and berries large; good flavor; pro- 
ductive; early; has given good results in Missouri. 
Moore Early. Ripens about 2 week before Concord; black; 
large; valued for size, hardiness, productiveness and season.
