 E. AV. Townsend

 Dear Sirs, — I have 

 certainly had wonder- 

 ful results from your 

 30.Ci(iO T o w n k i n K 

 plants this season; 

 snch berries I have 

 never raised 'before. 

 At Ifast yii per cent 

 of them were fancy 

 and brought both 

 hish praise and top 

 price on the Washing- 

 ton market. Thay 

 ^vere a beautiful larg'e 

 solid berry. Sorry not 



to have a cut of my patch as it was well worth 



looking at.

 B. W. Townsend Sons: 



Gentlemen. — Kindly book me 

 for 5.000 Premier plants for 

 April delivery, 1930. I want to 

 get my order in early so as to 

 be sure of getting Townsends 

 plants. The Premier pur- 

 chased last year run consider- 

 able over 10,000 quarts to the 

 acre. Tour plants have the others heat a mile for 

 producing quality as well as uniformity of size 

 berries. Folks around here can't see how they look 

 so good. All I say is get Townsend's plants and 

 the rest is easy. I have tried other plants that 

 make greater claims than you do, but now on it's 

 •Townsend's plants only for me.

Mitchell, Ind., June 14, 1929. 



Dear Sir, — Spring, 1928, I set 2,100 of your Premier 

 plants, to date I have picked 2,916 quarts and not 

 through yet. We have had an excellent market for 

 all our berries while other growers had to take 50 

 cents a crate less for their fruit. Inclosed find 

 clipping from our local paper.

 NER, NEW YORK 



I am enclosing you a photo 

 shouing my father, who is 

 nearly 92, selling your straw- 

 berries. From a small garden 

 he has sold $51.00 worth of 

 berries. Folks have never seen 

 such berries here as Town- 

 send's plants produce. They 

 all come back for more. 



MORE THAN 5,000,000 TOWNKING FI.ANTS 



Have been sold during the la.^t three years, these 

 plants have been distributed in forty different states, 

 have been grown and tested by some of the largest 

 berry growers and associations in the country. And 

 every plant so far as we know has given general 

 satisfaction. Thousands of our customers have 

 written in stating that Townking is the most won- 

 derful late strawberry they have ever grown. We 

 have grown an exceptionally fine stock of these 

 plants this year and have reduced the price to 

 $10.00 per 1000. And hope to have enough plants 

 to till the demand. "Townkinff" is a copyrig'litecl 

 product and cannot be sold by any other concern. 



Salisbury, Md., October 1, 1929. 



Dear Mr. Townsend: 



You know that I, always interested in new Intro- 

 ductions of strawberries, having been able to origi- 

 nate and introduce two of the leading standard va- 

 rieties myself. 



I am writing this letter to offer my congratula- 

 tions to you on your new Introduction the "TOWN- 

 KING." I have had the privilege to examine this 

 berry for the last six years both on your farms and 

 my own. And I unhesitatingly declare it to be the 

 greatest strawb'irry in my estimation that I have 

 ever seen. And if it has a weak point in any way 

 I have failed to find it. And at this time I am work- 

 ing on a plan to plant out fifty aci-es of this va- 

 riety. This will be the only variety that I expect 

 to grow. 



OLIVER I. CORDURY. 



MR. A. R. GORE, Lisbon, Maine: Plants arrived all 

 in fine condition. Am much pleased. 



MR. GEO. P. LEAVITT, Dover, Foxcroft, Maine, writes: 

 Your plants doing fine. Next year I want to get 2,000 

 of your Everbearing.
