For best results front your own efforts in growing berries we hope you will use Allen's Winning Plants. They are registered and are grown under the following rigid schedule. As a berry grower you cannot afford to do all of these things but you should insist that your plant grower do them for you. By renewing your planting stock every year or two you can realize most of the benefits from this program. Here are the things we must do to qualify for the registered label which means so much to you as a grower: 1. Provide a screen house as a source of indexed virus free plants. 2. All planting stock must be used from virus free sources and must be kept virus free. This requires 12 to 14 dustings to kill the aphid which is the carrier of virus organism. 3. This superior virus free stock must be grown in isolation from other plants in the neighborhood which are not being dusted or are not virus free. 4. Soil fumigation before setting of plants and fumigation twice during the growing season to eliminate nematodes. Allen's fields all have three fumiga- tions to give you superior plants. 5. Abundant plant food, reinforced with a minor element mixture insures that Allen's plants never want for anything. 6. Chlordane is added to the fertilizer to kill ants, cutworms and grubworms. 7. Continuing inspections to make sure that our planting stock and fields are free from red stele and other diseases. Mr. Allen, I thought you might like to know I bought my first plants from your company, I believe in 1910, and found them very satisfactory. These were in Vermont where I Jive now and also, I bought several times in Massachusetts, so I would like to start again with some of those wonder piants. I still think they are wonderful. I guess you shouJd agree I know how to raise them, 1 am now 81 years young and stiJI want so
