WHAT OUR CUSTOMERS SAY ABOUT US---Continued 
A REGULAR CUSTOMER FOR 21 YEARS BOUGHT 
MILLIONS OF PLANTS AND ALWAYS FOUND 
THEM SATISFACTORY 
For about twenty-one years we have been buying 
Townsends plants in a large way, some years as many 
as 500,000 plants have been purchased from you. In 
buying these million of plants and over this long period 
I have never received plants *nat were not absolutely 
true to name, and perfectly satisfactory in every way. 
I have recommended you to my many friends here 
around Norfolk and in other parts of the country. My 
interest in your nursery has probably been greater than 
you ever knew. You have always been reasonable in 
your charges for the extra high grade plants that you 
put out. I could not but help noticing the fact that dur- 
ing War times when prices of others went up 100 per 
cent and more that you kept your prices to the mini- 
mum, which fully brought out your fair dealing with 
your fellow men. We are planning a very large acre- 
age here this winter and I will let you hear from me 
again as soon as I take the matter up with the tenants 
and tell them what you have offered us, and your recom- 
mendations as to the Premier, and Horsey varieties for 
this section. Believe me very truly yours, 
T. E. Trotman, Churchland, Va.

HER MONEY CAME THRU O. K. (Though we do not 
recommend this way.) 
I am writing you Gentlemen, as I feel that I ought 
to. You received my order fr $28. 00 on the 9th. I put 
the cash in an envelope to get a money order from our 
Rural Carrier, and gave it to my little son to attend to. 
Instead of his getting a money order he sealed up the 
money and mailed it to you. When my husband learned 
this he scolded me for my carelessness and said that was 
the last of my $28.00. But today when I received your 
acknowledgement of my order ' felt good enough to set 
down and write you. And I am going to tell my Hubby 
that it makes no difference how you send the remit- 
tance as long as you are dealing with square deal folks. 
This is our third order from you and we have always 
been pleased ae our buy. Very truly, 
. Robt. MeClucki, Williamsburg, Ind.

TOWNSEND CANNOT DO TOO MUCH FOR HIS 
CUSTOMERS. 
This is to acknowledge receipt of your Check for 
$11.50 that you have collected for us for the lost crate 
of plants last year. We certainly thank you very much 
and suppose that had you not put in claim for us we 
would never have gotten a cent. Many thanks, we will 
try to reciprocate to you. 
Our plants are paying us better than any other crop 
we are growing. We cleared over $1,000.00 from the 
5000 Premier plants last year, and have a good pros- 
pect for another crop. Will order more another Spring. 
Faithfully your, 
Geo. M. Thomas, Ruskville, III.
