 Dear Sir: 



Please send order by 

 express. Enclosed please 

 find check for amount. 



The fall of 1914 I bought 

 four dwarf apple trees from 

 you. These are all doing 

 fine. Last year (1920), 

 from one tree, a Stayman 

 Winesap, I picked five half 

 bushel baskets of No. 1 

 apples, all picked while 

 standing on the ground. 



Very truly yours
