Patent No. 993, Hybridizers used 15,000 seedling plants 
to produce this remarkable berry. Big, solid, firm. Ripens 
clear red right through center. Abundance of natural 
sugar. Good for freezing—does not mush when thawed.

plants $15.00; 250 plants $32.50; 500 plants $55.00. 
‘GEM EVERBEARING 
GEM EVERBEARING—The berry that really produces two 
crops each year. Pick all this summer and fall, then 
you will harvest another fine crop next spring. Unlike 
most everbearers, this variety is an excellent plant maker. 
The plants are very healthy and vigorous, producing an 
abundance of runners, which bear fruit the first season. 
The berries are large, bright red, firm, roundish in shape, 
rather tart but of good flavor and quality. Good for 
dessert or culinary uses. Very attractive in appearance 
and sell well on the fresh fruit markets.

\ MASTODON EVERBEARING 
MASTODON EVERBEARING—Any soil of high fertility will 
produce bumper crops of this outstanding everbearing 
variety. Mastodon is rightly named, because it exceeds 
them all in size and in number of berries during the 
fruiting season, which extends from spring until late 
autumn. Delicicus berries for home use. 
50 plants $3.00; 100 plants $5.00; 250 plants $10.00; 500

\ STREAMLINER 
EVERBEARING STREAMLINER—The newest sensation in 
strawberry plants is the everbearing Streamliner. This 
is the heaviest-bearing strawberry plant produced in the 
past 25 years. Commercial growers with an extra fancy 
market specialize in this variety because the small extra 
cost of the plant is repaid several times over the first 
year. A few cents extra a plant invested in this variety 
come back in size, color, and salability of the very first 
crop. This berry has taken the country by storm. The 
Streamliner commences to bear about 50 days after plant- 
ing, and keeps on bearing the second year as well as 
the first, which most everbearing varieties will not do. 
It is unusually sweet, and sometimes produces berries as 
large as crabapples. It is extremely hardy, and does well 
under all weather conditions. Makes many plants. Pro- 
duces fine-keeping and best-shipping-quality fruit of all. 
Large size, healthy foliage and excellent flavor. If you 
want the very highest profits, the Streamliner is the 
plant to buy. 
50 plants $3.25; 100 plants $5.75; 250 plants $11.00; 500 
plants $17.85, parcel post prepaid. 1,000 plants $27.50 
express not prepaid. 
\ MINNESOTA EVERBEARING 
MINNESOTA 1166 (Evermore Everbearing)—This new ev- 
erbearing strawberry is proving more satisfactory every 
year. The berries are large and of excellent flavor. 
Northern strawberry growers report it a big Money Maker. 
It brings premium prices because of the unusual quality 
of the fruit. You can’t go wrong in planting Minnesota 
1166. You can be sorry if you don’t reserve your plants 
early. 
50 plants $2.50; 100 plants $4.00; 250 plants $8.00; 500 
plants $13.75, parcel post prepaid. 1,000 plants $21.75

F. G. Anderson, Prop. Feb. 11, 1950 
Last April 28th, 1949, you shipped my son, Winfield 
Smith Jr. 250 strawberry plants (Sugar Queen). In spite 
of an exceptionally dry spring and summer they passed all 
other varieties grown on the farm. Can you send us your 
catalogue for 1950. Route One. 
Roanoke Rapids, N. C. 
Dear Gentlemen: 
I am just writing to tell you not to forget me way out 
here in Roanoke Rapids, N. C. I think that a Nursery should 
be praised for such good work. The 50 Sugar Queen 
plants that I got from you are very good and healthy plants 
because not one of them have died, and too I would like to 
order some more strawberry plants from you some day. 
Thank you. Yours truly customer. 
June 9, 1950, Palmer Mass. 
Dear Sir: 
Just a card to let you know I received my strawberry 
plants and catalogue. I am slow writing, but I wanted to 
tell you how pleased I am with them. Every one lived and 
are doing fine. I bought 200 plants last year and only 
about 25 lived and I paid more than J did for yours. Many 
thanks. Sincerely. 
May 21, 1950 
Dear Sir: 
If I were displeased with the order I received from you 
I would let you know. But this is a letter to tell you 
how pleased I was with them. Received everything and in 
nice condition, packed very nice too. Will give you another 
order in the fall. Thank you. 
Sincerely, 
St. Petersburg, Fla.
