90 State Horticultural Society. 



We are now seeing results from our World's Fair, and we 

 shall see more of them in the future. The medals we captured, the 

 fruit we gave away daily, the car of peaches that was distributed 

 to 50,000 people in August, and the car of Jonathan that fed 

 40,000 during two days in October, all helped to bring our State 

 into greater prominence as the great fruit State of the Union. 



The following letters have been received: 



Santa Rosa, California, June 1, 1906. 

 Mr. L, A. Goodman, Secretary: 



Dear Sir:— The forty-eight annual report of the State Horti- 

 cultural Society of Missouri received, for which I heartily thank 

 you. This volume contains almost a complete horticultural edu- 

 cation, and I am simply amazed at the amount of practical infor- 

 mation which I find it contains. 



Very respectfully yours, 



Luther Burbank. 



Portland, Oregon, May 31, 1906. 

 Mr. L. A. Goodman: 



Dear Sir: — You will please accept our thanks for the forty- 

 seventh annual report of the Missouri State Horticultural Society. 

 In placing this book on our shelves, we notice that we have nearly 

 every report since 1891 to the present time, and consider them a 

 most valuable portion of our library. 



Hoping that your Society will continue to prosper, as it so 

 richly deserves, we are, 



Fraternally yours. 

 The Pacific Farmer Company. 



Agricultural College P. O., Mich., June 6, 1906. 



Mr. L. A. Goodman, Secretary Missouri State Horticultural Co- 

 ciety : 



My Dear Mr. Goodman : — I have received the Horticultural 

 Society reports. I have distributed them among my assistants and 

 advanced students, after keeping copies for the Horticultural De- 

 partment Library and for myself. There is a great deal of meat 

 in this report, like the preceding volumes. I frequently have oc- 

 casion to refer students to the files of the Missouri reports. Thank 

 you for sending them. Very truly yours, 



S. W. Fletcher.
