We are always on the outlook for a 
better Strawberry, especially an ever- 
bearing variety. There are many very 
good varieties like Mastodon, Gem, 
Wayzata, and Minn. 1166 (Now named 
EVERMORE). They are all mighty 
good in every way. HOWEVER, we 
have never seen a more beautiful Straw- 
berry than the STREAMLINER. It’s 
almost round, with a small hull, and of 
enormous size. Even larger than the fa- 
mous Mastodon. The STREAMLINER 
will ripen up even, to the prettiest 
bright scarlet color, which will attract 
customers’ attention every time. Sweet 
as honey, with very little acid. 
BEARS 60 DAYS AFTER 
SET 
Set STREAMLINER plants during 
March, April or May, and you will be 
picking those big, sweet juicy beauties 
60 days later. Think of it—no waiting 
a whole year for berries. When late 
killing frosts come in October or No- 
vember the plants will still be loaded 
with green and ripe berries, and even 
blossoms. It will take a good hard frost 
to stop them. 
BEARS 3 CROPS IN 
18 MONTHS 
Then the folowing June, you will a- 
gain harvest a full crop, just like an 
ordinary Strawberry, and with good care 
they will keep on bearing till late into 
the fall. 
STRONG, HARDY 
GROWER 
STREAMLINER is a thrifty, strong, 
and hardy grower. Does well on most 
any soil, and seems to do well in both 
wet and dry seasons. Perfect flowering, 
and needs no other variety to pollenize 
it. You will just have to try this vari- 
ety to know how wonderful STREAM- 
LINER really is. STREAMLINER is 
not going to take the place of MINN. 
1166 (Evermore), but will be tough 
competition,
