A New Name for the Old Firm 



THE CONARD & JONES COMPANY on January 1, 1925, became THE 

 CONARD-PYLE COMPANY. It has not moved from Wes1 Grove, Pennsylvania, 

 the very birthplace of the American Rose-growing industry. The only change is in 

 vastly increased facilities and ability to grow better roses better, and to get them to 

 confiding customers in perfect condition. 



Without recent change in ownership or management, the new-old concern retains 

 the name of its founder, Alfred F. Conanl. who was its pilot until he "crossed the 

 bar." It also recognizes his successor, Robert Pyle. the rose-grower, rose-lecturer and 

 rose-author, who has for a quarter of a century been progressively developing the 

 service and quality feature of this rapidly-expanding business. 



Antoine Wintzer remains in the ( lonard-Pyle ( lompany as \ ice-President. The 

 first man in America to grow roses in quantity for a mail-order business, a greater- 

 than-Burbank with Gannas, his 77 \ears of life have established him in the esteem 

 of customers and associates. 



The new-old firm, under the same but <;re;itl\ extended roof, is on the main motor 

 way from Philadelphia to Baltimore and Washington, and as well on the best through 

 line from the west, via Lancaster and Wilmington, to Atlantic City. The map 

 below shows the location. The star si<:n over our own rose-garden indicates the 

 place. Gome and see us.
