"EVERY TREE AND PLANT GROWING DUE TO 

 VIGOROUS HEALTHY STOCK SHIPPED" 



Rocky Mount, N. C. 

 March 12, 1937 

 Gentlemen : 



Last Fall I sent you an order for sixty miscellaneous 

 fruit trees together with an order for a number of small 

 fruit plants. I followed your directions for planting 

 very carefully and I am glad to be able to advise you 

 now that I did not lose a single tree or plant. I do not 

 give myself credit for these remarkable results but feel 

 that it can only be due to the vigorous and healthy stock 

 you shipped me. 



Thanks for getting my little orchard and fruit garden 

 off to a wonderful start.

BOYSENBERRY AND STRAWBERRY PLANTS 

 WELL ROOTED AND IN FINE CONDITION" 



Marcella, Arkansas 

 March 15, 1937 



Gentlemen : 



I am writing in regard to the Berry Plants. We re- 

 ceived the Boysenberries three weeks ago and set them 

 same day. I have never seen finer rooted plants of any 

 kind. Received the Strawberry Plants one week ago, 

 and have them set on good strong berry land and in fine 

 shape. They were also fine and reached here in good 

 condition.
