How to Grow 
STRAWBERRIES—Cut roots back halfway, and 
spread when placing in ground. Crown must be 
level with soil surface. Plant 1 ft. apart on ridges 
18” wide, 2 rows per ridge. Use plenty of water 
when planting and in production. Do not fertilize 
until 2 months after planting, then use good com- 
mercial fertilizer between ridges and soak well. 
Trimming runners will increase yield. Plant 50 
plants for each person. 
BOYSENBERRIES, YOUNGBERRIES, LOGANBER- 
RIES—Against fence, wall, or arbor, set plants 
6 to 8 ft. apart. Cover roots and keep moist. Canes 
grown the first year produce crop following year. 
Water well during harvest and summer months. 
Average family requires at least 6 plants, assorted. 
Fertilize Spring and Fall. Wire supports, 2 to 6 ft. 
above ground increase the bearing surface. Plants 
are looped over the top, back around the second 
and third wires loosely, giving sunlight and air 
access to blossoms and buds. This is also the best 
commercial practice, planted in rows 8 ft. apart, 
5 ft. to the row. An acre will support about 1,100 
plants; requires 15,000 ft. No. 13 wire; 310 stakes 
2” x2” x 6’ and 50 anchors 3’. Guy stake is placed 
between last 2 stakes in row, making short turns 
easier with tractor. 
RASPBERRIES—Plant 2 ft. apart in rows 4 ft. apart. 
Cut back canes to 3” or 4” and set roots deeply in 
loose soil. Keep moist. First season's growth pro- 
duces crop following year. After harvest cut old 
branches to 12”-18”. Water freely; apply plenty 
of manure mulch in Fall, commercial fertilizer in 
Spring. Average family requires at least 2 dozen 
plants.
