PREMIER 
One of the most popular Strawberries ever introduced. Good plant maker, frost 
resistant and prolific. The bright red berries are large, bluntly conical, of good quality 
and hold up in size to the very end if the season is favorable. The leading berry for 
market or home. No variety ever tested has been so deservedly popular and we recom- 
mend it as the best early and midseason kind. 
BLAKEMORE 
Ripens a few days before Premier. Berries light red, conical and will remain firm a 
few days after ripening. Excellent for commercial or home use. Productive, good plant 
maker, and does well on rather poor soil. Our plants are the yellows-free strain. Plant 
Blakemore for profit. 
CATSKILL 
An outstanding midseason variety of high quality 
which is rapidly growing in popularity. Bright red. 
Excellent for home use.

Sow 2 to 3 Ibs. to 1000 sq. ft. on thin lawn, 4 to 6 Ibs. to 1000 sq. ft. on new lawn. 

MULCHING. Protect by mulching with clean straw in fall or 
early winter after the ground is frozen. Do not apply too 
heavily, as this smothers the plants. Leave on during the 
fruiting season, as it conserves moisture and keeps the 
berries clean. 
AFTER FRUITING. Immediately plow or narrow the original 
row to about 12 to 15 inches. Thoroughly cultivate the 
middle sc as to give the new plants a chance to get estab- 
lished. Repeat the second year. We do not advise keeping 
beds more than two or three years. 
FAMILY REQUIREMENTS. About three hundred, five hundred, 
or a thousand plants are required for a small, medium or 
large family.

tions of suitable varieties if you want to leave this to us.
