Strawberry Plante 
POPULAR JUNE-BEARING VARIETIES 
~ALL POT-GROWN 
Strawberry plants should be set out in rows 2 feet apart and 
the plants a foot apart. The varieties we offer are all perfect 
flowering and therefore need no association with any other variety 
for perfect fruiting. 
Shipping season lasts from July until October. We recommend 
early planting to enable the plants to get established before the 
advent of winter.

Aberdeen. Midseason. Produces immense crops of large, bright 
red berries. Perfect for home gardens. 
Blakemore. Very early. Mammoth berries, red clear through, 
rather tart, very firm, and most delicious. Early, solid and very 
productive; excellent for shipping. 
Catskill. Midseason. A heavy yielder of excellent fruit. Widely 
adapted to soil and climate. Perhaps the best of the midseason 
berries; continuous bearing through a long season. 
Chesapeake. Mideason to late. The berries are uniform m 
size and shape, mostly heart-shaped, bright crimson, and the 
flesh firm and of excellent quality. Still a favorite with all 
professional gardeners. 
Dorsett. Early. Largest in size, most attractive In appearance, 
heaviest in yield. Berries are bright red, shapely and of excel- 
lent flavor. Especially recommended for New Jersey and Hud- 
son River Valley, New York. Vigorous and productive. 
Fairfax. Ripening just after Dorsett, this remarkable berry 
rules the second-early market as decisively as Dorsett rules the 
early sorts. This is a “must”? among Strawberries. One of the 
best. 
Joe (Big Joe). A midseason to late variety, fully up to Chesa- 
peake in size. Of very easy culture. 
Marshall. Midseason. Vigorous in growth, with clean, healthy 
foliage. Very productive under high culture. One of the tastiest. 
Premier. Excelled by no early variety. Produces vast quantities 
of berries of good size; attractive, and excellent quality. Very 
hardy. Easy to grow. Carries over the most severe winters. 
The best variety for preserving. Practically frost proof. 
Redstar. Very late. The berries are large, glossy, bright red 
and do not turn dark. Considered more productive and a 
better quality than other late varieties. 
Royal Sovereign. Well-known English variety. Produces large, 
well-shaped berries abundantly. Delicious flavor. Excellent 
for glass culture.

Preparation of Soil. The bed for your plants should be dug 
and thoroughly cultivated to a depth of 12 to 14 inches. Incor- 
porate with the soil, rotted leaves or well-rotted manure of any 
kind (fresh manure should be avoided since it usually holds grub 
worms). After cultivating the bed, scatter a good commercial 
fertilizer at the rate of 50 pounds to each bed (15 x 50 feet), 
raking it well into the surface soil.
