Why is strawberry called a
strawberry Ii Us not a berry, so
the botanists telIsus, and it has not
any particular connection with
straw.
1t is true that some gardeners
place straw under;the ripening ber-
ries to protect them from the
ground, but this fruit must have
had its name before this way of gar
dening it was found out.
Probably the old name of the
strawberry was stray berry, and a
very good name, too, as it well de-
seribes the rowing habits of straw
berry runners.
Travelling clergymen used some
times to be called strawberry
