What one of our Wholesale Commission Men says about it: 



Mr. Edward Towill, 

 Roslyn, Penna. 



Dear Sir: 



We were particularly pleased with your new rose the "American 

 Legion," and our tjnly regret was that we did not have more of them. 

 The people that handled them were very much pleased, and I might 

 suggest that it would be $. good proposition if you would plant your 

 whole place with that variety for another year. 



You will note the price it brought came very close to that of 



the "American Beauty," and being such a prolific producer, it 



certainly should be a money-maker. ^ , ^ 



*' "^ Yours very truly, 



EDWARD RE ID. 



What one of our largest Retailers says of it: 



Mr. Edward Towill, 

 Roslyn, Penna. 



Dear Sir: 



Just a word to tell you how pleased we are with your new 

 Rose, "American Legion." We have been handling cut flowers of it 

 since last fall when you commenced putting them on the market, and 

 we are very much impressed with the lovely bright color, and more 

 so with its keeping qualities--and what is more to the point, our 

 customers buy it and like it and commend it to us. We thought the 

 flowers on the plant were beautiful when we were at your place just 

 before Christmas, and feel sure you have a coming rose. 



Yours very truly, 



PENNOCK BROTHERS.
