for it will produce berries in the fall until heavy freezes, into 
November. Supply limited for trial orders.

FALL PLANTING 
Remember, we do not start shipping plants in the fall un- 
til about October 15th. You have around six weeks after that 
to set them here in New England, and some years plants can 
be set up into December. Any time the ground can be worked 
before freezing, plants can be set. 
Cover each plant set in the fall with about two quarts of 
pine sawdust after the ground freezes, to keep them from heav- 
ing. Eight or 10 inches in diameter and three or four inches 
deep is enough for strawberries. Brush it off the crowns in the 
spring, leaving the rest on the ground to work into the soil. 
Pine sawdust around most any small fruit plants in the fall 
is a good thing to prevent heaving. You will find fall set plants 
make more runners then when set in April and will bear a 
larger crop. It will save much valuable time in the spring that 
can be used for other work. 
From our own experience, we can highly recommend fall 
planting. 
STRAWBERRY CULTURE 
Strawberries are one of the easiest fruits to grow. Good 
land, good cultivation, good plants and good judgment will 
assure SUCCESS. toe
