PREMIER 
One of the most popular Strawberries ever introduced. Good plant 
maker, frost resistant and prolific. The bright red berries are large, 
bluntly conical, of good quality and hold up in size to the very end if 
the season is favorable. The leading berry for market or home. No va- 
riety ever tested has been so deservedly popular and we recommend it 
as the best early and midseason kind. 
BLAKEMORE 
Ripens a few days before Premier. Berries light red, conical and will 
remain firm a few days after ripening. Excellent for commercial or 
home use, Productive, good plant maker, and does well on rather poor 
soil. Our plants are the yellows-free strain. Plant Blakemore for profit. 
CATSKILL 
An outstanding midseason variety of high quality which is rapidly growing in 
popularity. Bright red. Excellent for home use. 
TENNESSEE SHIPPER (Patented) 
This outstanding Strawberry seems destined to supplant the very popular and 
much planted Blakemore. Its light, bright color is most attractive and is admired 
by all who see it. It is early and of good size throughout an extremely long 
picking season. The berries are conical, firm, and with its raised calyx, are easily 
“capped.” They can be pulled without bruising and therefore do not have to be 
pinched. It has a long blooming period and if the early blossoms are killed by 
frost you will still get a fair crop. Vigorous and a good plant maker. An out- 
standing early berry for preserving, canning and shipping. 
TENNESSEE BEAUTY (Patented) 
This is the outstanding introducticn of the University of Tennessee from its 
Strawberry breeding experiments. The berries are large, bluntly conical or wedge- 
shaped. They are an attractive glossy color, of good quality, and are borne on 
semi-erect stems. The large, bright green calyx gives the berries an attractive 
setting. It is vigorous, free of diseases, and a medium plant maker, but produc- 
tive. An outstanding kind for home canning and market. You must plant some 
Tennessee Beauty.

Cultural Directions for Strawberries 
WHEN PLANTS ARE RECEIVED. Plant at once if possible. If season is not favorable put in 
cool, moist place, BUT DO NOT WATER UNTIL PLANTED. They also may be unpacked 
and trenched in open ground. 
WHEN TO PLANT. Late in March or April is the chosen time. Fall planting usually results 
in a complete failure. 
SOIL. Strawberries respond to good soil and you should choose a fertile location. However, 
do not plant within one year after turning under sod, as white grubs invariably cause 
trouble. Prepare the ground very thoroughly. 
DISTANCE TO PLANT. The rows should be three and a half to four feet apart and the plants 
set about eighteen inches in the row. It requires about 7000 plants per acre. 
CULTIVATION. During the summer keep the ground constantly stirred and free of weeds. 
Moisture preservation by dust mulch will conserve the vitality of your plants and produce 
a fine matted row. Keep the hoe and cultivator busy. 
MULCHING. Protect by mulching with clean straw in fall or early winter after the ground 
is frozen. Do not apply too heavily, as this smothers the plants. Leave on during the 
fruiting season, as it conserves moisture and keeps the berries clean. 
AFTER FRUITING. Immediately plow or narrow the original row to about 12 to 15 inches. 
Thoroughly cultivate the middle so as to give the new plants a chance to get established. 
Repeat the second year. We do not advise keeping the beds more than 2 or 3 years. 
FAMILY REQUIREMENTS. About three hundred, five hundred, or a thousand 
plants are required for a small, medium or large family. 
SELECTION OF VARIETIES. We shall be glad to make selections of suitable 
varieties if you want to leave this to us.
