in the rows during the growing season.

Growing Strawberries Profitably 
Setting Plants 
ay Clip the roots if they can't be planted without 
doubling. The plant should be set with the crown 
about even with the soil after it has been thoroughly 
firmed around the plant. 
Type of Soil 
Select a plot springy in nature but well drained 
and free of vegetation. Moisture is essential. The land 
which you contemplate setting to Strawberries should 
be kept as free from vegetation as possible during 
the previous year. If the land has been lying idle, 
plow late in summer before the weeds and grass 
develop seed to maturity. Heavy crops of Cow Peas, 
Soy Beans, etc., if plowed under in late summer while 
green increase the humus and fertility of the soil, 
making it loose and porous; therefore, more reten- 
tive of moisture. 
Soil Preparation and Fertilization 
Prepare soil same as for truck or garden crops. Lay 
out rows, usually 3% to 4 feet apart; set plants about 
15 to 18 inches apart in the rows. Do not use com- 
mercial fertilizer at the roots. If soil is fertile we do 
not recommend using any type of fertilizer when 
planting. After the plants have been set in the row, 
a light application of fertilizer may be applied around 
the plant and worked into the soil with a hoe. Do not 
allow the fertilizer to fall on the leaves of the plant. 
During the growing season additional applications of 
fertilizer may be applied if the soil is not reasonably 
fertile. 
Early. Its bright red 
color and rich, delicious 
flavor always bring top 
Bey,” market prices. Ripening ear- 
Fe % mem «ly with Premier and Blakemore, 
my this variety rapidly came to the 
_ top in favor, and is well known and 
widely planted. Price: 25 for $1.15; 50 
for $1.90: 100 for $3.00; 250 for $6.00; 500 
for $9.40; 1000 for $15.00; 5000 for $70.00.
