rious. 
Hyde Park, Mass., Oct. 8, 1913. 
Dear Madam— 
A year ago last winter I saw your ad in a magazine, and sent 
you a trial order for six of your Everblooming Roses. 
I was skeptical about the Roses blooming the first year, al- 
though you guaranteed that they would. Every one of them 
bloomed, not only once but several times last year, all six are 
still alive and growing, and did even better this year than last. 
In fact some of them are in bloom now. 
Last winter or spring, I selected from your catalogue which you 
sent me a collection of twenty Roses. Two days after thay were 
set out we had a late spring frost and snow storm. I thought 
that I had lost all of them, but I left them in the ground with all 
the leaves fallen off and nothing but bare branches left. 
All but five budded out again and have been blooming all the 
past summer. They have been the wonder and admiration of 
everyone who has seen them. So much so that I am sending you 
the names and addresses of three of my friends who have requested 
me to ask you to send them your bulb and regular catalogues. 
I hope I have not tried you with this long letter, but I thought 
perhaps you might like to know what a satisfied customer’s opinion 
of your stock was. 
Yours sincerely, 
W. H. Williams. 
Just A Word 
improve this book from year to year by keeping the lists of Roses 
and plants up to the very highest standard. This has been accom- 
plished by elim‘nating varieties that have been superceded by 
better sorts, and by adding to the lists varieties that are merito- 
By this method I am able to maintain my offerings up to 
the highest standard. Again thanking you for past favors and 
trusting you will speak a good word for my Plants, Roses, etc., 
to your friends and neighbors, your flower loving friend,
