EVERBEARING STRAWBERRIES 
We do not believe that everbearing strawberries are profitable from a 
commercial standpoint in this locality. However, a few plants planted this 
spring will bear fruit for two months during the fall. We recommend that 
the blossoms of everbearers be kept picked off until July and that some 
kind of mulch be placed around the plants so that the berries will be free 
of dirt. 
“ STREAMLINER — This is the newest and most highly recommended 
of everbearers. It produces a very large berry which is as pretty as any 
June bearer. With us the Streamliner did almost as well last spring as the 
June bearing varieties. 
Price for EVERBEARING PLANTS — 25 for $1.00; 50 for 
$2.00; 100 for $4.00. For prepaid orders by mail add 10%.
