Onder Early! 
Hold on there! We don’t mean that you 
have to order while you are still a child. 
But we do mean that you should order 
early in the season, while we still have a full 
stock of all varieties. January and February 
are none too early for spring ordering, and 
as soon as your order is in, the plants will be 
reserved for you from our estimated supplies. 
Orders will then be properly filed for ship- 
ment at the best planting time for your lo- 
cality. 
We subscribe to daily U. S. Government 
weather reports, and are able to watch the 
progress of spring where you live, hence can 
ship accurately. So don’t delay. Order now. 


In cold climates, mulching is necessary to 
protect the plants during alternate freezing 
and thawing. If they are not mulched the re- 
sulting expansion and contraction breaks off 
the fine roots and greatly weakens the plants. 
Any material such as oat, wheat or rye 
straw, marsh hay, shredded corn fodder or 
coarse stable manure makes ideal mulching, 
or leaves will serve the purpose. It should be 
spread over the field or garden in the early 
winter soon after the first freeze, covering the 
plants and ground to a depth of about three 
inches. If stable manure is used, it should be 
applied thinner, spreading the strawy matter 
directly over the rows of plants and the fine 
material between the rows. 
In the spring as soon as the frost leaves the 
ground, remove the mulching which lies di- 
rectly over the rows to the spaces between the 
rows. This permits the plants to grow with- 
out any obstruction. 
In warm climates where freezing is very 
light, it is unnecessary to cover the plants. 
Simply apply the mulching between the 
rows and spread it around the plants under 
the foliage, forming a bedding for the berries 
to ripen upon. 
Mulching adds materially to the Straw- 
berry crop and gives the grower bright, clean 
berries which are in big demand at. fancy 
prices.
