SET THEM EARLY 
The most important single thing in growing strawberries is to 
set plants early. With no other crop, is early spring setting so all 
important. A good start and growth is easy if —plants are set 
early so they can get the benefit of the early spring rains and while 
the soil is cool and moist. Late setting is never as satisfactory. We 
set ours in March and April when possible, and try to have them 
all set by April 20th. 
Time of setting may vary considerably depending on your local- 
ity. We usually start digging plants about April 1st and sell through 
April and May — also in October and November for Fall setting. 
FRESH DUG PLANTS 
We ship only fresh dug plants and pack them in sphagnum moss, 
which insures their arrival in perfect condition for planting. See 
our guarantee. 
TRUE TO NAME 
| We use every precaution to have our plants true to name, and 
if any should prove otherwise we will replace, but in no case will 
we be responsible for any sum greater than that paid for the plants. 
PERFECT FLOWERING 
All varieties of strawberry plants we sell are perfect flowering, 
and need no other variety to help pollenize. 
WHEN TO ORDER AND HOW TO SHIP 
Order early, as soon as you have decided which varieties and 
how many you want. Write plainly so we can get your name and 
address correctly for prompt acknowledgment or shipment. 
EXPRESS is generally satisfactory and the best way to ship 
plants if your order is large or if the distance is great. We do not 
prepay express charges. 
PARCEL POST is generally cheapest and most satisfactory 
for small shipments in adjoining and nearby states. We advise 
having plants sent by Parcel Post whenever it is possible. Parcel 
Post deliveries are prompt and satisfactory.
