EASIER TO GROW. Each year as we learn more 
and more about growing the HYBRID cultivated 
Blueberries, we find that they are not near as fussy 
about what kind of soil they will grow on, as we 
did a few years ago. Of course they prefer a rather 
moist acid soil, but we also find that they will grow 
on other soil too, by adding some peat moss, old 
leaves or saw dust with the soil. Sulphur and water 
them well during dry spells. 
The Cultivated Blueberry is a rather DWARF 
growing plant. A plant 15 years old will not be over 
6 ft. tall, but it will be the same size in cireumfer- 
a ence. They grow in a ball shape plant, and their 
roots are all very near the top of the soil, so they 
must be cultivated very shallow. Set the plants 5 ft. 
apart each way, and keep clean by frequent cultivation. Hoe all weeds away from the plants. We offer 2-yr., 3-yr. and 5-yr.-old plants. 
All of these sizes have some buds. You can expect 2 to 6 quarts of fruit from a 5-year-old plant the year after set, when it becomes well 
established. Even the 3-year-old plants will bear some fruit the same year set. 
We offer for sale JERSEY, RUBEL and RANCOCAS varieties. These are the three best ones. The RANCOCAS is early. Then comes 
RUBEL, and for late it’s JERSEY. JERSEY bears the largest berries. All are excellent quality, and go well together on account of 
pollenization, You may order by name or leave it up to us to select the varieties for best pollenization. If you order only two plants 
we will ship you two varieties.

EXTREMELY HARDY. ALFRED can be grown anywhere without 
winter protection, having withstood 30 degrees below zero, and not a 
single tip of a branch injured, while our other varieties were frozen to 
EARLY SEASON. It ripens a week to ten days earlier than Eldor- 
ado and in productiveness it is in a class by itself. We have seen them 
bear a second crop. We picked many cases this year in September.
