STRAWBERRIES 
(Everbearing) 
Say, Folks, don't miss this wonderful strawberry 
in placing your strawberry order! Wouldn't fresh 
home picked strawberries make a tasty shortcake 
some August, September, October, or November 
day? Sure it would! And you can have it too, 
by planting some everbearing plants along with 
your May-June varieties. 
But first a little about the Everbearer. It BEARS 
the SAME YEAR that it is PLANTED! And it bears 
large, rich tasting berries full of flavor and lots of 
them. And oh, what a strawberry aroma they do 
have! 
Be sure to plant your plants as early as possible 
in the month of April for best results. Up until 
May 20th is all right but each day’s delay after 
May Ist is against your success. 
The success of everbearing strawberry growing 
depends practically on 3 things: Ist, planting 
free-of-disease young plants each spring; 2nd, 
keeping all blossoms off up to and including July 
15th; 3rd, seeing that ground is kept moist, and 
WELL CULTIVATED. 
If you are looking for maximum results in fruit 
production, take off all runners as they appear 
except the first 2 or 3 of which space for new 
plants to grow. Of course you will have to buy 
new plants then when you wish to set a new bed. 
As for your 2-year-old or older fields, let the 
blossoms go, keep well watered and cultivated. 
They will bear a crop in June, rest about 4 weeks 
and then bear a small fall crop. 
Remember, for those big luscious berries, don’t 
depend on your old field but again plant your 
young plants as stated on new ground. About 200 
plants should be planted for an average size 
family. 
We have raised everbearing strawberries here 
for over 20 years and have always had a won- 
derful big crop as there is no loss from frosts and 
dry weather is taken care of by watering. 
Fruiting starts on your spring-planted plants 
about August 10th and continues until ground 
freezes hard (in our locality about November Ist 
to 15th). 100 quarts or more can be produced on 
a piece of land 15 feet square. Ask us for full 
details. Full planting and growing instructions will 
be sent you on your order of everbearers.
