I bought Spinach Seed, Scotch Kale and Peas of you_last 
fall. The Spinach was equal to the best I ever grew; the Kale 
is fine and true toname, and I could not tell the difference be- 
tween your peas and those I paid a much higher price for. 
picked and shipped all my peastogether. You have lower prices 
than I ever heard of before. I will send you an order for spring 
goods. { December, 1897. ] J. GUY, Virginia.
