26 SQUARE DEAL NURSERY 
A WONDERFUL PLEASURE TO ME. 
It would be a wonderful pleasure to me 
to meet every friend and customer face to 
face and have a hearty handshake and talk 
the business over in our own way. This will 
hardly be possible on earth. But our dear 
old friend, Uncle Sam, has provided a way by 
his messenger that we are not very far apart 
and we can tell each other our troubles and 
our wants and we are only neighbors after all. 
Please do not forget to send in the names 
of your friends, that they may receive a copy 
of this book free. 
I will appreciate also a photograph of your 
berry field, showing Townsend’s Thorough- 
bred plants. 
I also wish to hear from every little boy 
and girl that received my offer of the past sea- 
son. Also their photographs. The best letter 
with photo will receive 1,000 fall bearing 
plants free. This will mean a small fortune 
to any boy or girl in a few years. 
DO YOU KNOW. 
That you are not treating your children 
fairly if you do not grow fall-bearing straw- 
berries? I am headquarters for the fall- 
bearing sorts, one of the oldest and largest 
growers of them in the United States. If you 
want nothing else from this catalog, let me 
send you my family collection—500 plants 
that will bear fruit almost continuously from 
early spring uniil late in the fall, all for $4.00 
prepaid to you. This is one of my best offers 
and one that is pleasing my customers. 
1u0 fall-bearing plants included in this col- 
lection.

E. W. Townsend. 
Dear Sir—I want to tell you about the 
plants I bought of you two years ago. When 
I took the Townsend Late to the station it 
caused a sensation. People went wild. The 
buyer was John Vandenburg. He said it was 
the prettiest berry he ever saw. People came 
to my patch by the car load (automobile), to 
see them on the vines. If you hive sold plants 
to all that said they were going to buy of you. 
You have sold thousands around here. It was 
the very best advertisement Townsend Late 
could have had. JOHN A. HANDLY.

pleased. Looking well in the patch.
