STRAWBERRIES 
Thomas (late season) — Extra large plants and 
berries. This new native Wisconsin variety is very 
hardy, and has been our most profitable market berry 
for the past six years. 
Robinson (midseason) -— Large berries. Good 
shippers. 
Catskill (midseason) — Large plants and berries 
— good shipper in dry weather. 
Wisconsin 214 — Heavy producer of large dark red 
berries. Fine for home use and freezing. Also a fairly 
good shipper. Developed by our State Department of 
Agriculture. 
Brightmore (Oregon) — A new midseason strawberry 
similar to the Marshall. 
U. S. Sioux (Midseason) — A new western berry. 
Heavy producer. 
Streamliner (Ever Bearing) — Large bright red ber- 
ries of fine flavor and lots of them after August 1. 
Webster (Ever Bearing) — A new northern Wisconsin 
variety, that promises to outdo all others. 
IN OUR TESTING PLOT 
Several new raspberry and strawberry varieties in- 
cluding some virus free plants. 
Strawberries require well drained soil, and should not 
be planted on newly plowed old sod. If planted too deep 
heavy rain might cover the crown with soil, and 
injure the plant. Just enough soil to cover the roots. 
Blossoms should be nipped off in June after planting. 
Keep your planting free of weeds and they will do well 
on most any type of soil. 
It pays to mulch with about 2% inches of clean straw 
or marsh hay, when the plants appear to be dormant and 
and the temperature gets down to 25° in the late fall. We 
follow cultural methods advocated by our state depart- 
ment of agriculture. They have carefully inspected our 
plantings twice each year for over twenty-three years. 
Our plants are shipped via parcel post and guaranteed 
to arrive in good condition. We pay the postage. 
When plants arrive, please lossen the roots, dip in 
water, then “heel in” in moist ground, away from wind 
and sun, until ready to plant.
