LeRESE, 

Possibly no fruit has undergone within the past few 
years greater improvement than the Blueberry. Large, 
named varieties offered are the result of cross breeding 
the native, wild Blueberries. The new hybrids grow in 
large clusters; are plump, tender and practically seed- 
less. Plant this new fruit and enjoy fresh, frozen or 
canned Blueberries—and Blueberry Pie is hard to beat. 
In addition to bearing asprofitable 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 acidity, 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.

The NEW MONEY MAKER 
THE SENSATIONAL NEW HYBRID FRUIT | 
Enormous Size, Excellent Quality, Vines Vigorous, Thorn- 
less 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 Thornless Boysenberry, often referred to as the Wonder 
Berry. Produced by crossing Raspberry, Blackberry and Logan- 
berry; larger and sweeter than either. The ideal berry for freezing, 
retaining its natural flavor and sweetness. Sells for top prices on 
the market but a little sott for long shipments. Immense in size 
and when you taste it, you will agree that in flavor it stands 
supreme. Berries measure as much as 2 inches in length. Com- 
mercially outsells all berries, but its greatest value is its qualities 
adapting it to home use. Delicious when served fresh, with sugar 
and cream. Wonderful for canning. Excellent for pies when fresh, 
canned, 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 907 plants per acre. They may be trained 
to wires or left on the ground.
