“My Sionilli plants did splendidly, producing very dark red berries of excellent quality.”

LEON E. DIX, Vermont.

“Kellogg Pedigree Plants pay and pay big. They are rank growers, great drouth resisters, heavy producers and the berries are very large and of highest quality. I have found Sionilli a desirable variety.”

J. M. PASLEY, Missouri.

“Our yield from Kellogg Pedigree Plants was very, very good and the berries were of such high quality that we could not begin to supply the demand for them among our neighbors. Our fanciest berries were produced by your wonderful variety, Sionilli.”

M. J. PERRY, New York.

“Sionilli and Kellogg’s Progressive are successes in this climate. None better.”

DR. D. A. GOVE, Washington.

“I like Sionilli very much. This variety is a winner.”

G. W. BOROUGH, Indiana.

“I have found Sionilli a splendid variety. It is a very heavy cropper. Its berries are large, dark red and of unusually fine flavor. Kellogg Pedigree Plants ‘can’t be beat’.”

N. T. CRAWFORD, Virginia.

Sionilli is a strong, late bisexual,--an ideal mate for Kellogg’s Prize and Kellogg’s Big Late. Sionilli plants are “Big in Size--Big in Yield,” grow strong and upright with heavy root system which extends as deeply into the soil as the foliage grows above the surface, making it one of the strongest drouth resisters.

The foliage, which is large and of heavy texture, furnishes ample protection for the berries which are produced beneath on strong, upright stems.

Sionilli is an exceptionally heavy producer. Its berries are real dark red from surface to center and of supremely delicious flavor, unlike any other strawberry. They are of firm texture, topped with beautiful, fully developed calyx and possess remarkable keeping and shipping qualities.

Our strongest endorsement cannot express our admiration for Sionilli. We unhesitatingly recommend it as an excellent late variety both for the commercial strawberry grower and the home garden. For prices of Sionilli plants see Page 66, column 3.

Word and picture evidence of their success in all sections of the country--success widespread as the name and fame of Kellogg Pedigree Plants. Lack of space renders it impossible for us to reproduce the many photographs and letters of satisfaction which have come to us. The thousands in our files would fill a volume of many pages. Where, as forcibly as in letters like these, could you find such strong assurance of the satisfaction and success which you too may enjoy from Kellogg Strawberries grown the Kellogg Way?

10 YEARS--NONE BETTER

“We have grown Kellogg Strawberries for the past ten years and always have an abundance of big, delicious berries of the highest quality. NONE BETTER.”

E. W. DAY, Illinois.
