OF STRAWBERRY PLANTS 

INSURING VIGOROUS PLANTS 
We plow tons of humus into the soil two years 
before setting the plants 
In presenting you with our Strawberry Plant Catologue for 1950, we thank 
all our old and new customers for the many orders given us in the past, and 
hope to have the pleasure of serving you in the future. 
The summer of 1949 was a good growing year with us. All our beds made 
a good growth and plants are vigorous and healthy. 
Success in the plant business depends entirely upon the success of cus- 
tomers and they can only succeed with strong, healthy plants of the best up- 
to-date varieties, well grown, well dug, and well packed. Our plants are all 
graded after being trimmed and all small and old plants or mother plants 
are discarded. We ship only one grade of plants—No. 1 grade. Our strawberry 
beds have been inspected by a strawberry expert and found true to name and 
free from disease. 
Our shipping season begins April 1st and continues until around June Ist. 
Potted plants can be had frem August lst until October 1st. A great many 
people ask us if we put our plants in cold storage after they are dug. No, 
we do just the opposite. The plants are growing in the fields when your 
order arrives.. Plants are taken right from the field to the packing house, 
trimmed and tied in bunches of 26, labeled, packed, and taken every day to the 
Post Office or Express Office in Andover, Mass. Plants handled this way 
should reach you in good condition.
