While it is easy to say that our strawberry plents are of the best 
quality cbtainable, that word quality represents to us the many years 
of effort we have spent in trying to make our product better. 
We have tried many new varieties in our search for improved kinds, 
sought better methods of growing plants, better methods in digging 
and cleaning, better and cheaper ways of packing, all to the end of 
giving cur customers better plants at lower prices. 
Our plants are grown on deep, rich, well-cultivated soil. The roots 
are heavy and long, white and vigorous. The loose soil enables us to 
retain on the piant the many long, fibrous roots so often lost in digging 
on heavier soils. 
Our plants are hand dug and immediately moved indoors for clean- 
ing, sorting, counting and tying. There the old runners and dead leaves 
are removed, small and other questionable plants discarded. Roots are 
straightened, and plants tied in a nice bunch of twenty-five, full count, 
easy to handle, ready to set. Just the best cleaning and sorting job 
you every saw. 
Our plants are carefully packed in moss for shipment, guaranteed 
to reach you in good growing condition. Small orders are wrapped in 
water-proof paper, large orders in securely bound crates. 
We are growers of plants, not jobbers. Our prices 
are farmers’ and growers’ prices, low enough for the 
commercial grower or for your garden, high enough to 
enable us to maintain our high standard of quality. 
Compare our quality, compare our prices. 
We are more than content to let our business rest in the hands of > 
cur customers, and depend upon their good will. In almost every 
strawberry growing community in states close to us are people who 
have successfully used our plants. Upon request, we will send you 
the names of some of those customers. Maybe they are your friends, 
too.
