Fredonia (Early) One of the Best for All Purposes 
Ask ANY Siate Experiment Staiion or Agricultural College about the FREDONIA Grape and you 
will learn of its suitability__one of the best early Grapes. 
FREDONIA’s sweet, foxy, delicious flavor makes it 
making jellies, jams, Grape juices, etc. We know you 
you taste and use Fredonia. We have fruited Fredonia for six years and we can recommend it very 
highly, as one of the best Grapes for home and commercial uses. 
Most Profitable for Commercial Purposes 
FREDONIA is 7 to 10 days earlier than the Concord, and its very compact bunches of large, beautiful blue ber- 
ties, coated with a velvety ‘‘bloom,’’ make it a ready ‘'seller’’ anywhere it is offered for sale. Its extra eacliness 
gets it on the market when prices are high. There’s money in growing Fredonia. Vines are vigorous, thrifty grow-

Grow Strawberries 
Save Space—Get Lots of Berries 
One planting and YOU ARE THROUGH. No 
weeding, no cultivating, yet you can grow lots of 
fine berries in a small space. Use any good va- 
tiety, but we suggest our Super-Mastodon ever- 
bearer. In spring varieties, we suggest Premier, 
Robinson and Fairland. 
BOX CULTURE 
Sometimes it is more convenient to make, or use 
ready-made boxes. Boxes should be about 18 
inches wide, 4 feet deep and 6 to 8 feet long, 
whatever size is most convenient. To keep the 
box sides from bulging, wire back and forth 
through sides. Make holes and plant as in Barrel 
Culture 5 inches apart. Plants required depends 
upon size of box. 
BARREL CULTURE 
Use any common wooden or iron barrel, sugar 
barrel suggested, and bore 22-inch holes 5 inches 
apart over its surface. Two in bottom for drain- 
age. Fill the barrel with good rich soil and tamp 
well. Set plants through holes just like in open 
soil, as the barrel is filled and tamp well around 
roots. Set plants 5 inches apart around and over 
top of barrel. It will take about 75 plants to plant 
a sugar barrel. 
FOR WINTER PROTECTION: Stack fodder, etc., 
around barrel or box. If straw is used, hold it in 
place around barrel or box with lattice or screen, 
woven wire, etc. Place on after freezing weather. 
Remove in spring when plant growth starts.

in Boxes or Barrels 
PYRAMID CULTURE 
Pyramid culture is recommended ky many gar- 
deners today. It’s the most simple in construction, 
but takes more ground space than barrel or box 
methods. Make three frames (without bottoms) 
out of 6-in. lumber. The first frame is 6x6 ft. 
square, the second 5x5 ft. and the third 4x4 ft. 
Place largest frame on level ground and fill level 
full with rich garden soil packed well, especially 
in the middle. Walk on it. Place second 5x5 ft. 
frame on top of soil surface in the middle of larger 
frame and fill it with same soil packed level full. 
In the middle of this soil surface place the 4x4 ft. 
frame and fill it an inch or so above the frame 
surface with packed soil. Soil in the middle of 
each fame should be packed very firm to prevent 
settling. Set the Strawberry plants 5 in. apart in 
the 6-inch soil surface exposed around the frames 
and water thoroughly. Set top surface also. We 
recommend the use of Ra-Pid-Gro plant food 
(page 18.) 
A pyramid of this size will take a cubic yard 
of rich soil and accommodate 175 Strawberry 
plants. 
If you desire a larger ‘’Pyramid Bed,’ make 
your frames accordingly, but in all cases don’t 
make the frames so there is over six inches or 
under five inches of soil space exposed. The bed 
should be thoroughly watered when plants are 
set and as often thereafter to keep them vigorous. 
The first watering could be with ‘’fertilizer water’’ 
made with Ra-Pid-Gro and once a month there- 
after up to and including August. 
We recommend for these systems of culture the 
following Strawberries: Premier, Robinson, Fair- 
land, or Mastodon (Everbearing). Mulch the 
exposed plants and soil with straw, etc., for 
the winter.
