HARDY GIANT CULTIVATED BLUEBERRIES 
Not only does the blueberry produce big juicy berries 2 to 3 times as large as common blueberries, but it is 
row, blossoms bell-shaped and 
ornamental on the lawn or in the shrubbery border and very easy to grow. The foliage is dark green, long and nar- 
pinkish white. During the aut- | 
umn the leaves turn bronze, and 
during the winter months the 
twigs are red. The bushes will 
grow to the height of 8 feet. 
For the best results plant on § 
acid soil. Low muck or sand soils Page 
are usually very acid. If your @ 
soil does not contain acid add a ie 
little peat moss for acidity when 
planting. Plant two or more 
plants to insure proper poliniza- 
tion. If your soil is not acidity, 
mix the soil with old sawdust 
or soil from the bottom of an | 
old wood pile. Set the plant and 
fill the hole with the same mix- 
ture and keep the soil moist.

GIANT BLUEBERRIES 
Just Think! Giant berries, 
many three-fourths of an inch 
across. Plump and juicy, sweet 
and full-flavored. Mild enough 
to be included in any diet. Fresh 
ripe berries require no sugar, 
canned berries very little. Ideal 
for freezing and very delicious 
for pies. Every bush is a heavy 
producer, four bushes in your 
yard will provide enough berries 
for pies throughout the season.
