CULTIVATED BLUEBERRIES 
and HOW TO GROW THEM 
Probably no fruit has undergone greater improvement 
within the past few years than the blueberry. Improved named 
varieties now offered are the result of cross breeding the native 
wild blueberries, which are now miniature berries compared 
with the new hybrids, which grow in such large clusters. The 
demand for this new fruit, fresh, frozen or canned, is tremen- 
dous. 
These hybrid blueberries make a most profitable crop. 
These bushes make a most attractive ornamental shrub for 
the lawn or for hedges. 
Three or four different varieties should be planted to pol- 
linate. They can be planted in any good garden soil and should 
bear a few berries the first year. 
Blueberries require an acid humus soil. If your soil is de- 
ficient in humus and acid, we recommend making a heavy ap- 
plication of peat moss, rotted sawdust, decayed leaves or some 
other such material. It is better not to use any commercial 
fertilizer the first two or three years. 
We can furnish this delicious fruit in the following most 
popular varieties.
