Dear Sir: Some time ago we ordered 

 a copy of Thomas* Boob on Roses. We 

 promised to send yoa postage as soon 

 as we learned tbe amount. Tbe book 

 was so good that we forgot all aboat 

 postage until today. Please forgive our 

 lapse of memory. 



We loaned It to a friend and he likes 

 It so well we're afraid that we will 

 have to buy another. 



Respectfully, 



New York. A. R.

A BOOK WORTH HAVING. 



Dear Sirs: 



The last letter we wrote you was 

 an appreciation about Tliomas' Booli 

 on Roses. We have had a lot o£ fun 

 following his instructions this last 

 summer and we consider the book 

 worth much more than four dollars. 

 On a test bed of about one hundred 

 roses planted in April, 1915, we grew 

 over thirteen hundred blooms and 

 could have had at least one-third more 

 if we had not pruned out a lot of 

 shoots to give more strength to the 

 bushes. We could write a volume on 

 the value of Thomas' book, but enough 

 said. A. R.
