Kellogg’s Big Cash Prize Garden

(For photo-engraving see Page 48)

Kellogg’s Cash Prize Garden is our most popular Garden selection, and deservedly so, because, in addition to its value from a berry producing standpoint and the saving it affords over the regular list prices of plants, it provides an opportunity to compete for one of the three cash prizes totaling $50.00 which we award each year to the three members realizing the greatest yields from this Garden.

1921 PRIZE-WINNERS (Our checks were mailed to these Prize-Winners October 21, 1921)

$25.00 First Prize

“I am enclosing report of yield from my Cash Prize Garden which amounted to 732 quarts and made me $233. My biggest picking was on July 3—24 quarts with an average of 11 to 15 berries to the quart. They were the grandest berries I ever saw. I shall set more Kellogg Plants next April.”

Mrs. J. P. Bleeker, Iowa City, Iowa.

$15.00 Second Prize

“Although everything seemed against me—the late frosts, then the drouth—my Cash Prize Garden produced 257 quarts this year, the prevailing price being 45 cents per quart, with some at 50 cents. Judging from the appearance of my garden at the present time, I have excellent prospects for next year.”

Mrs. John T. Harris, Fairland, Indiana.

$10.00 Third Prize

“I submit the following report of berries produced in 1921 to date by my Kellogg Cash Prize Garden: 257 quarts at 35 cents per quart—total $89.95. I am pleased to say that these plants were as you represented. My neighbors admired them as being the finest they ever saw. Please send me your new catalog as I want to order more plants from you.”

Mrs. Lafayette Holt, Burlington, North Carolina.

LETTERS FROM 1920 PRIZE-WINNERS

“I can’t thank you enough for the $25.00 check as First Prize in Kellogg’s Cash Prize Garden Contest. This came as a complete surprise as I never dreamed of winning one of the prizes. In fact, it is the first prize I ever won. I grow Kellogg Pedigree Plants exclusively and follow the Kellogg Way and everyone who has seen my berries asks how I can grow such fine, large berries. I intend setting more Kellogg Plants next spring.” Mrs. John Ragle, Woodlake, California.

“I have just received your letter advising me that I won second prize also your check for $15.00 and am indeed surprised to learn that I won one of the prizes. We consider Kellogg Strawberries the very best and have recommended Kellogg Pedigree Plants to many friends. Whenever I am in need of plants, you will get my order.” Miss Nora Scott, Hartwell, Georgia.

“I wish to thank you for the check for $10.00 received as third prize in your Strawberry Contest. This was ‘some surprise’ to me as I was not expecting such good luck. I cannot say enough in praise of Kellogg Pedigree Plants. I would not take common plants as a gift if I could get Kellogg’s, regardless of their price.” Mrs. Edith M. Grass, Limestone, Maine.
