delicious fruit in season. You will find that your home grown fruit, that can be picked absolutely 
sere hae a much finer and sweeter flavor than the shipped fruit or that picked several days before

Soil: Any good fertile well-drained soil will grow Strawberries. Be sure it has been under 
cultivation one full year before planting strawberries to avoid injury from grubs. 
_Planting: Set the plants 18 inches apart in 3 foot rows. Water the plants when setting. Addi- 
tional watering is desirable during extreme dry periods of the summer. Side dress the rows with 
B eooe puirogen fertilizer, or rich well decomposed manure. Keep the soil well hoed and cultivated 
e first summer. 
Mulching: When the ground freezes solid in the fall, apply a mulch of several inches of clean 
straw over top of the rows. Pull this mulch off the pans very early in the spring before growth 
starts, leaving it between the rows to keep the berries clean. Make another application of 
fertilizer at this time. Renew your strawberry bed after not more than two fruiting seasons.

Robinson @ Berries Large as Golf Balls @ 
The New Robinson is an early mid-season berry following Premier by about 5-7 days. Here 
is a new variety originating in the commercial fruiting section of Michigan that is gaining favor 
by leaps and bounds for both home and market. This popularity is well deserved because of its 
wide adaptability and habit of making a better plant row than Premier, because of its fruitfulness 
(almost half again as many as other standard varieties), and its very large attractive berries— 
which, of course, bring top prices on the market. One large grower has acclaimed, ‘““These 
(Robinson) berries in all respects are the finest we have had in the past twenty years.” 
ROBINSON is a berry that rates as ‘‘Tops” in large size, true bright red Strawberry color, and 
as fine quality berry as you have ever tasted.
