Silver Pink News 



FOR A YEAR OR MORE I have been telling the virtues of my Original Silver 

 Pink Snapdragon from seed. Many have accepted our story, some have 

 doubted, and a few (mostly competitors) have knocked us good and hard. 

 We had our reputation at stake, knew our business and attended strictly to it. 

 Today our patrons do the talking, and the sailing is plain and easy for SILVER 

 PINK— the one great Snapdragon of the age.

 G. S. Ramsburg, Somersworth, N. H. 



Dear Sir : Replying to yours of June 10 in reference 

 to Silver Pink Snapdragon, beg to advise that we have 

 had very satisfactory results from seeds. First: With 

 the exception of a few golden sports, the color is uniform 

 and perfect. Second : Second crop on the plants has beaten 

 anything tbat we have seen. Third : In reference to dis- 

 budding, they grew so fast and blossomed so profusely 

 ttiat there was positively no need for disbudding. 

 We remain, very truly yours,

 Mr. Ramsburg: Kindly duplicate my last year's or- 

 der for 500 Silver Pink Snapdragon from seed. Never had 

 so many blooms from Snapdragon before, and it gives me 

 pleasure to tell others of your fine stock. 



Very truly, C. L. Howe. 



Mr. 6. S. Ramsburg. Kennebunk, Me., Jmie 19, 1913. 



Dear Sir : Will say in reply to your inquiry about Sil- 

 ver Pink Snapdragon from seed that it was very satisfac- 

 tory. The flowers were very nice, with only a few golden 

 sports in the lot. I wish to reorder 200 plants. 



Very truly yours, J. 0. El well. 



Most anyone will say that a thing is beautiful, but it re- 

 quires a multiple of good qualities to attract the attention 

 and receive the indorsement of such men as the above, who 

 are sound, hard-headed business men who are not growing 

 plants wholly for pleasure, but who would justify their time 

 by the largest increase of dollars. Note that their reorders 

 are for plants from •••d, while they could have made count- 

 less thousands of cuttings from the plants they grew. 



I would' have you note the character and standing of the 

 rden who so enthusiastically indorse this great Snapdragon.
