STRAWBERRIES FROM SEED 
Here are Runnerless, Everbearing Strawberries, no run- 
ners to cut away, and fruits continually ripening from spring

soil is cool, usually give bearing plants by mid-August. The 
fruits are of medium size, smaller than in standard Straw- 
berries, but of delicious flavor and decorative appearance, the 
fruiting plants ornamental enough for edging or even a 
rock garden. Seeds fine; culture ‘“‘kt.’’ Variety Harzland.
