FARQUHAR COMPANY FARQUHAR’S POT-GROWN STRAWBERRY PLANTS These are strong pot-grown plants, which can be safely shipped to any reasonable distance. If planted early, they will produce a large crop of fruit next year. All varieties offered are perfect flowering, needing no fertilization by another variety. Cultural Directions. The Strawberry is easily cultivated; abundant crops can be obtained from a variety of soils, differing widely in character, from a light sand to a heavy clay. The best soil is a deep sandy loam, but any soil suited to the growth of ordinary field or garden crops may be trusted to suc- cessfully grow the Strawberry. The soil should be broken up and pulverized by spade-trenching or subsoil-plowing, enriching with good stable manure to a depth of fully two feet, the quantity of manure to be determined by the con- dition of the soil. The plants may be set in beds of three rows one foot apart and one foot distant in the rows, with a space of two and a half feet between the outside rows of adjoining beds left fcra pathway. They may also be planted in single rows three feet apart and one fcot apart in the rows.
