   Princess 
  Anne, 
  Md. 
  

   Gentlemen 
  : 
  

  

  Four 
  years 
  ago 
  I 
  sent 
  you 
  an 
  order 
  for 
  one 
  thousand 
  Delicious 
  apple 
  trees, 
  one 
  year 
  old. 
  At 
  the 
  same 
  time 
  

   I 
  ordered 
  some 
  two-year-old 
  trees 
  from 
  another 
  firm. 
  At 
  the 
  present 
  time 
  it 
  would 
  be 
  impossible 
  for 
  anyone 
  to 
  

   tell 
  which 
  are 
  the 
  older 
  trees. 
  The 
  past 
  year 
  I 
  harvested 
  quite 
  a 
  lot 
  of 
  apples 
  from 
  the 
  trees. 
  

  

  I 
  also 
  ordered 
  about 
  two 
  hundred 
  peach 
  trees 
  from 
  you, 
  and 
  last 
  year 
  I 
  sold 
  my 
  peaches 
  readily 
  at 
  $2.00 
  per 
  

   bushel, 
  while 
  ordinary 
  peaches 
  went 
  begging 
  at 
  fifty 
  cents. 
  I 
  also 
  sold 
  plums 
  from 
  the 
  two 
  hundred 
  Abundance 
  

   and 
  Waneta 
  trees 
  purchased 
  from 
  you 
  at 
  $3.20 
  per 
  32-quart 
  crate 
  while 
  others 
  were 
  begging 
  the 
  public 
  to 
  buy 
  

   their 
  fruit 
  at 
  less 
  than 
  $1.00 
  per 
  bushel. 
  One 
  fruit 
  stand 
  sold 
  the 
  Wanetas 
  at 
  two 
  for 
  five 
  cents. 
  I 
  sold 
  thous- 
  

   ands 
  of 
  pounds 
  of 
  Concord 
  grapes 
  from 
  the 
  one 
  thousand 
  vines 
  bought 
  at 
  the 
  same 
  time 
  I 
  bought 
  the 
  trees 
  at 
  

   four 
  cents 
  per 
  pound 
  while 
  others 
  were 
  advertising 
  grapes 
  at 
  2% 
  cents, 
  and 
  buyers 
  kept 
  coming 
  for 
  weeks 
  after 
  

   the 
  crop 
  was 
  gone. 
  Wish 
  I 
  had 
  set 
  more 
  Niagaras, 
  as 
  I 
  could 
  get 
  my 
  own 
  price 
  for 
  the 
  limited 
  number 
  I 
  

   had 
  of 
  them. 
  The 
  dwarf 
  pear 
  trees 
  began 
  bearing 
  the 
  year 
  I 
  set 
  them, 
  and 
  last 
  fall 
  grape 
  buyers 
  were 
  astounded 
  

   to 
  see 
  those 
  little 
  trees 
  bending 
  to 
  the 
  ground 
  with 
  great 
  big 
  pears. 
  Sold 
  dewberries 
  from 
  the 
  one 
  thousand 
  

   plants 
  at 
  five 
  cents 
  above 
  the 
  market. 
  Did 
  equally 
  well 
  from 
  the 
  one 
  thousand 
  Eldorado 
  blackberry 
  plants. 
  

  

  Considering 
  the 
  fact 
  that 
  I 
  did 
  not 
  live 
  here 
  on 
  the 
  farm 
  the 
  first 
  three 
  years 
  after 
  setting 
  the 
  fruit 
  and 
  had 
  

   to 
  depend 
  upon 
  very 
  inefficient 
  help, 
  and 
  at 
  times 
  no 
  help 
  at 
  all, 
  it 
  is 
  little 
  wonder 
  that 
  the 
  community 
  in 
  this 
  

   short 
  time 
  should 
  begin 
  to 
  dub 
  me 
  a 
  sort 
  of 
  fruit 
  wizard. 
  I 
  tell 
  them 
  that 
  anyone 
  could 
  have 
  done 
  as 
  well 
  with 
  

   the 
  kind 
  of 
  stock 
  I 
  had 
  to 
  start 
  with 
  and 
  they 
  could 
  have 
  done 
  even 
  better 
  had 
  they 
  given 
  it 
  better 
  care 
  than 
  I 
  

   found 
  it 
  possible 
  for 
  me 
  under 
  the 
  circumstances. 
  The 
  above 
  facts 
  may 
  be 
  easily 
  substantiated. 
  

  

  I 
  almost 
  forgot 
  to 
  tell 
  you 
  that 
  the 
  six 
  Montmorency 
  and 
  Early 
  Richmond 
  cherry 
  trees 
  were 
  loaded 
  with 
  

   fruit. 
  Yours 
  truly,
