STRAWBERRIES 
The ground should be worked ten or fifteen inches deep and be properly enriched as for any 
garden crop. Drainage is necessary in very wet soil. 
For family use plant fifteen to eighteen 
inches apart each way, and after a few, strong plants have been set from runners, then pinch 
off all runners as fast as they appear. 
Keep the ground free from weeds and frequently stirred 
with hoe or fork. Plants treated in this manner will produce more crowns and therefore double 
the amount of well developed fruit than when runners are left to grow. 
CAUTION: Be sure to cut off all fruit- 
stems the first year. This will cause the 
plants to make new runners and is what you 
want for next season’s crop. Everbearing 
Strawberries can be allowed to bear after 
July 15. 
PREMIER (Per.) This is the 
early strawberry of the day. The berries 
are very large, long pointed, light red in 
color and present a good appearance in the 
basket and in market. It produces such a 
quantity, that growers are simply carried 
away with it; no other early strawberry is 
anything near equal to it in productiveness. 
$1.50 per 100; 500, $6.00, postpaid.

LILACS 

Lilae, Persian 
PERSIAN LILAC (Purple). Blooms a good 
deal more than the common, and has smaller 
leaves. Does not sprout as much from the 
roots. I prefer the Persian for the flowers, 
but the leaves of the common are decidedly 
prettier all summer. Grows 6 to 8 feet high.
