GROWER AND SHIPPER OF 
STRAWBERRY, CABBAGE, and TOMATO PLANTS 
CERTIFIED BY TENNESSEE DEPT. OF AGRICULTURE 
DAYTON, TENNESSEE 
Dear Friends and Customers: 
First of all we thank each and every customer who has placed an order with us during the 
past thirteen years. By hard work, fair and honest dealings, our business has grown far more than we 
anticipated. We will continue to serve our customers in the future as in the past. 
Our method of growing plants is, unexcelled. We have a large acreage of uncleared mountain 
land to be cleared as we need it. We have two inspections each year by the State Department of Agri- 
culture—one in the spring at planting time and again in the fall before we start shipping. This as- 
sures you of good, strong, healthy disease-free plants. Each year we fruit some of our plants to test 
their yield and vigor and as a further chec: to prove no disease shows up during the second year. 
Many farmers have tried growing strawberries and failed because they had diseased plants in the 
beginning. It is our business to grow the healthiest plants possible. The drought during the growing 
season is overcome with our modern irrigation system. 
For several years the Blakemore has been planted more than any other strawberry. How- 
ever, the Tenn. Shipper and Tenn. Beauty are taking its place in many of the strawberry producing 
areas. They make larger and stronger plants and out-yield- the Blakemore. Our plants are in excel- 
lent condition for spring delivery.
