2 High Yielding Strawberry Plants 
Lassen, Shasta, Utah Centennial 
A veteran berry grower of Azusa, Calif., and one of our 
oldest customers (name on request), told me that our Tennes- 
see-grown plants of University varieties of strawberries out- 
yielded northern California-grown plants of same varieties 2 
TO MAKE THE MOST MONEY, PLANT THESE HIGH-YIELDING PLANTS! 
These plants are being grown for us by S. E. MULLINS, 
county agent (farm advisor) and owner of Mullins Plant Farms 
at Chattanooga, Tennessee. We are his agent for the 11 Western 
States. 
You will find our Tennessee-grown plants to be of very su- 
perior quality. The Azusa grower mentioned above told me that 
the plants he got from us were good, well-rooted plants and he 
didn’t lose a plant. Mr. Mullins is growing his plants under 
overhead irrigation and using NU-GREEN in fertilizing then, 
this having proven so successful in producing large, wel]- 
rooted plants. He has written at various times during the 
growing season that the plants were still looking good. 
Here are some reports from previous seasons: 
A large Orange County grower wrote that after making a 
survey of strawberry plantings from Los Angeles to San Diego 
he found that Mullins sent the best plants. Another large 
Orange County grower told me: “I buy all my plants from you.” 
An Oregon grower wrote: “The Mullins plants were extraordin- 
arily well packed, the root systems well developed and growing 
ahead of nearby-purchased plants — better than plants from 10 
other nurseries in various parts of the country.” 
From Mr. Mullins: “I had a letter from Mr. Stites of Texas 
with an order for 3 million plants. He visited us in April to 
inspect our plants. W. W. Magill, Extension Horticulturist of 
Kentucky, was here looking for plants for his growers. He was 
well pleased with my plants.” 
From L. A. Niven, owner of Shelby Plant Farm and Horticul- 
tural Editor of Progressive Farmer: “Mr. Mullins, who is now 
growing my strawberry plants, is the most satisfactory person 
that I have dealt with. I was about to discontinue completely 
the growing and selling of strawberry plants when I made con- 
nection with Mr. Mullins. I have found him completely reliable 
in every sense of the word. I’m convinced that he is the out- 
standing strawberry plant producer in the state.” 
A Chula Vista grower wrote regarding Mullins plants: Ala 
our plants came from you and they are very good and free from 
disease. We have about seven acres of Klondikes and they are 
the finest in this territory.”
