STRAWBERRIES 
Strawberries should always be 
planted in the spring, the earlier the 
better. 
EVERBEARING 
The Everbearing varieties will bear the 
first season from August until hard freezing 
weather. Blossoms should be pinched off 
until the middle of July so plants may be- 
come established. 
EVERMORE— 
This was originated by the Minnesota 
Fruit Breeding Farm. The berries are large 
and a red color so bright they glisten as 
though varnished. Many think they are the 
sweetest of all Everbearers. It will bear 
this summer, starting 60 to 90 days after 
planting and continue until freezing. Next 
year it will produce a heavy spring crop 
and then besides you will get fruit during. 
the summer and fall. It is such a vigorous 
grower that in rich soils it makes a lot of 
new plants. 12 plants, 80c; 25, $1.50; 50, 
$2.75; 100, $5.00. 
STREAMLINER— 
Big, luscious berries of fine flavor and 
good color—perfect for serving fresh, in 
shortcake, or for quick freezing. Plants are 
self-pollenizing and heavy yielding. 12 
plants, 90c; 25, $1.75; 50, $3.00; 100, $5.50. 
JUNE BEARING

June bearing. Mid-season. An old favor- 
‘ ite. One of the best known and most widely 
grown strawberries in the north and eastern 
half of the United States. 25 plants, 80c; 
50, $1.25; 100, $2.00; 200, $3.75. 
PREMIER— 
Perhaps the most popular June bearer at 
the present time. Ripens very early, pro- 
ductive and hardy, also a fair to good plant 
maker. Berries bright red, fairly firm, of 
ae quality. 25 plants, 90c; 50, $1.50; 100,

THE MINNESOTA— 
Developed by the Minnesota Fruit Breed- 
ing Farm. One of the outstanding varieties; 
ripening one to two weeks earlier than 
most June bearing varieties. Their uniform 
size and long bearing of fine flavor and 
excellent quality make them a big favorite. 
You will like the Minnesota. Very hardy.

CUTTING’S 
PLUMS 
UNDERWOOD— 
The Underwood is valuable because of 
its large, early fruit and annual bearing. 
It is the earliest of the large Plums, attain- 
ing a size of 134 inches in diameter. Fruit 
is attractive red with splendid quality, small 
pit. 
SUPERIOR— 
One of the very largest and very best of 
the Jumbo Plums originated by the Minne- 
sota State Fruit Breeding Farm. The tree 
bears early and is a regular and heavy 
cropper. The fruit is very large, firm fleshed, 
beautiful red color and delicious quality to 
eat out of hand. Superior is one of the bet- 
ter Plums for home or for market. 
REDCOAT— 
A red, freestone, early ripening, very pro- 
ductive, hardy Plum. Long, oval; excellent 
for canning and cooking. 
PIPESTONE— 
A very large, productive, early mid- 
season variety of excellent quality for des- 
sert and culinary purposes. Yellow with a 
red blush. 
POLLENIZERS FOR MINNESOTA PLUMS— 
It is necessary to plant one or two pollen- 
izing Plums with any of the Minnesota 
hybrids in order to get good yields. It has 
been found that the Minnesota hybrids do 
not fertilize one another and we recommend 
the following varieties which will effectively 
pollenate the standard varieties. 
HANSKA POLLENIZER— 
A midseason variety bearing a round, 
brilliant red Plum with a wonderful aroma. 
It has a fine flavor and is a wonderful vari- 
ety to eat from the tree, but it is especially 
fine as a canning Plum. 
KAGA POLLENIZER— 
One of the most effective pollenizers for 
our Minnesota hybrids. In addition, Kaga 
is a very high quality, heavy yielding Plum. 
Especially good for canning. 
PRICES OF ALL PLUM TREES 
S56 ft; ee tee ee es $1.80 each; 3 for $5.00 
Your family will not have all the straw- 
berries they can eat in 1952 unless you 
plant a bed this spring. If you have space 
enough you should plant at least 100 plants. 
We have always advised planting more 
than one variety, as you never know which 
will do the best under certain conditions. 
We would suggest trying the newer vari- 
eties, Minnesota, early and Arrowhead, late, 
planting 50 of each. We know they are 
both good varieties.
