STRAWBERRIES 
Strong, well-developed plants in pots. 
Rich soil, kept firm, and with a plentiful supply of 
moisture, is desirable. Select potted plants and 
space them at 9-inch intervals in rows 2 feet apart 
m spring or late summer. 
Keep the row well weeded at all times, and your 
hoeing must be very shallow, because all feeding 
roots are close to the surface. Whiten the soil 
around the plants with General Garden Fertilizer 
in November and May. Spread 14 inch of peat moss 
over both ground and plants in December, and 
brush it lightly off the leaves in April. 
Strawberry plants produce daughter plants 
around the parent, and as care of a bed develops 
into routine, it is usual to retain daughter plants at 
approximately 9 inches apart; in early autumn, 
transplant surplus plants into new rows. Destroy 
two-year-old parents. 
Runners connecting plants should be cut as soon 
as young ones are rooted.

The above types produce one abundant crop of 
flowers, followed by fruit, in spring or early summer. 
The following types produce flowers rather spar- 
ingly all the year. By keeping these pinched off in 
spring and summer until August 15, and so building 
up reserved strength in the plant, a fair crop of good 
fruit will be developed for the autumn. :
