Strawberries 
There are hundreds of varieties of 
Strawberries and most of them are good, 
with favorable conditions. Conforming 
with our policy of careful selection we 
have chosen only the best varieties that 
will flourish almost anywhere. Perfect 
flowering varieties planted alone will ma- 
ture a crop of truit. Imperfect varieties 
should have perfect varieties planted with 
them—at least one row of perfects for 
every two rows of imperfects to furnish 
pollen. All are perfect varieties and 
therefore can be planted alone.

Ambrosia Late. The latest and best late 
ripening Strawberry. Ripens about 
three weeks after other June bearing 
varieties are gone. Large semi-pointed 
fruit. Extremely hardy.

by U. S. Department of Agriculture, 
which has a record of 6,640 quarts to 
acre. An exceptionally heavy producer 
of very large, light red berries, which 
hold color, shape and taste long after 
picking, making them excellent for 
wholesale marketing.
