4 om a a... GIANT HYBRIDS 
Blueberries deserve a place on your grounds. No 
replanting in a few years—once planted, they last a 
lifetime, and need very little attention. Use them in 
your landscaping—surpassed by none as an ornamental. 
Lovely in spring with pink bell-shaped blossoms. All 
summer their heavy foliage is a highly polished bright 
green—in autumn the leaves turn a gorgeous coppery 
red. These disease-free plants can be easily trimmed, 
making beautiful hedges or group plantings. Along with 
their beauty comes production. What a pleasure to pick 
fresh, large, juicy Blueberries from your own bushes— 
beautiful to look at—delicious to eat. Could one ask for 
more? 
RUBEL—Early bearer. Very hardy bushes, producing 
large, uniform berries beginning in early July. Has a 
long fruiting season. 
RANCOCAS—Midseason bearer. One of the oldest Blue- 
berries. Ideal berry for home use. 
JERSEY—Giant of the Blueberry family. Bears giant, 
sweet berries very late in season. Plant all three and 
prolong your fruiting season. Blueberries are very 
easily grown, but like an acid soil. 
MONEY MAKERS 
Biggest money-makers as a commercial proposition— 
500 crates per acre, netting $2.00 per case. More profits 
per acre than any other small fruit if your ground is 
suitable. Also an attractive ornamental from early 
spring until late fall—tfull of pink buds, which open into 
bell-shaped, white flowers starting in June. Heavy pro- 
ducer—4 bushes in your yard will provide enough 
berries for Blueberry pie throughout the season. Blue- 
berries require an acid or semi-acid soil, good drainage 
and moderate supply of moisture; plant 5 x 7 feet apart.

HOW TO GROW BLUEBERRIES SUCCESSFULLY 
Make an opening three or four times larger than the roots, large enough to receive all the roots without crowding. 
Mix the dirt, removed from holes, half and half with Acid Peat, or some acid material such as decayed leaves, rotten 
straw or vegetable refuse, firm this well around the roots of the plants. We recommend that a handful of sulphur be put 
around each plant in the spring. Give the one-year plants one-half ounce of Sulphate of Ammonia, for the older plants 
increase one-half ounce for each additional year. Do not let the Sulphate of Ammonia get in contact with the foliage. 
This can be purchased at your local feed store, and is very inexpensive. NOTE—Two or more should be planted for pollen- 
ization.
