BLUEBERRIES 
Possibly no fruit has undergone within the past few 
years greater improvement than the Blueberry. Improved, 
named varieties now offered are the result of cross breeding 
the native, wild Blueberries, which are now miniature 
berries compared with the new hybrids, which grow in 
large clusters; are plump, tender, and practically seed- 
less. The demand for this new fruit —fresh, frozen, or 
canned —is tremendous. 
In addition to bearing a br oatable crop, the Blueberry 
is an attractive ornamental shrub which may be planted 
on the lawn. 
Blueberries require an acid humus soil. If your soil 
is deficient in humus and acid, we recommend making a 
heavy application of peat moss, rotted sawdust, de- 
cayed leaves, or something of that nature, plus a 1 to 
2 lb. application of Rho-Za-Grow, depending upon 
size of plants.

Boysenberries 
THE NEW MONEY-MAKER 
THE SENSATIONAL NEW HYBRID FRUIT 
Enormous Size, Excellent Quality, and Prolific 
Produces As Much As Six Tons per Acre 
DELICIOUS SERVED FRESH, FROM THE FROZEN FOOD LOCKER, 
CANNED, OR IN JAM 
Within the past few years wonders have been accomplished in cross breeding and 
selecting outstanding specimens of fruits. Among the greatest accomplishments in cross 
breeding is the Famous Boysenberry, often referred to as the Wonder Berrys= Produced 
by crossing Raspberry, Blackberry and Loganberry; larger and sweeter than éither. The 
ideal berry for freezing, retaining its natural flavor and sweetness. Sells for top prices on 
the market but a little soft for long shipments. Immense in size and whe n you taste it, 
you will agree that in flavor it stands supreme. Berries measure as much as 2 inches in length. 
Commercially outsells all berries, but its greatest value is its qualities adapting it to home 
use. Delicious when served fre osh, with sugar and cream Wonderful for canning. Makes 
excellent pies when fresh, ca anned, or frozen; makes good jam, which is quite conspicuous 
because of the absence of many of the seeds found in other berries as the Boysenberry is 
almost seedless. Color a pleasing purplish wine. July. 
We recommend planting Boysenberries 6 feet apart in rows 8 feet wide, requiring 
)07 plants per acre. They may be trained to wires or left on the ground. 
ee The original type, the vines of which have 
STANDARD BOYSENBERRY somewhat objectionable thorns like the Dew- 
berry. However, it is desirable in combination plantings with the Thornless Boysenberry 
as the Standard ripens 10 days later, extending the Boysenberry season. 
Differs from the Standard Boysenberry 
THORNLESS BOYSENBERRY only by the vines being thorlcss 
and the fruit ripening 10 days earlier.
