It is our business to give you the best plants you can get anywhere, 
at prices and with service that will please you. We are especially pleas- 
ed when our customers come here for their plants. You can then see 
exactly what the plants are, and how they are handled all along. Long 
delays in transit are eliminated, and plants are fresh and moist. 
Our plants are grown on deep, rich, well-cultivated soil. 
The roots are heavy and long, white and vigorous. The loose 
soil enables us to retain on the plant the many long, fibrous 
roots so often lost in digging on heavier soils. 
Our plants are hand dug and immediately moved indoors for clean- 
ing, sorting, counting and tying. There the old runners and dead leaves 
are removed, small and other questionable plants discarded. Roots are 
straightened, and plants tied in a nice bunch of twenty-five, ‘full count, 
easy to handle, ready to set. Just the best cleaning and sorting job you 
ever saw. 
Our plants are carefully packed in moss for shipment, guaranteed 
to reach you in good growing condition. Small orders are wrapped in 
water-proof paper, large orders in securely bound crates. 
We are growers of plants, not jobbers. Our prices are 
farmers’ and growers’ prices, low enough for the commercial 
grower or for your garden, high enough to enable us to main- 
tain our high standard of quality. Compare our quality, com- 
pare our prices. 
We are more than content to let our business rest in the hands of 
our customers, and depend upon their good will. In almost every straw- 
berry growing community in states close to us are people who have suc- 
cessfully used our plants. Upon request, we will send you the names of 
some of those customers. Maybe they are your friends, too.

... These plants were in excellent condition when we received 
them, and they were the nicest plants we have ever had. Thank you
