TOWNSENDS PLANTS BEST IN THE DISTRICT OF 
CONCORD JUNCTION, MASS. 
Gentlemen: It is a pleasure to write you this letter. 
The plants I have been getting of you are the most vig- 
orous plants I have ever seen or grown. They always 
attract the attention of the passers by, and they want 
to know where my strain came from. I am always 
pleased to tell them from Townsend, and feel that my 
debt of gratitude is only partly paid. I am pleased to 
send you a list of names of my friends who want to 
grow your plants. If I can be of further service to you 
“sing out.” Very truly yours, 
Wm. A. Massey, 
Concord Junction, Mass.

TOWNSENDS PLANTS GROW IN STONE AND 
IRON ORE 
From Enoch J. White, Pittston, N. J. Plants bought 
from you last spring grew fine in spite of the worst 
drouth. Planted on a hill side with stone and iron ore. 
I had to shovel dirt to cover the plants in some places, 
where there was all rock, but we had fine big berries 
and they all grew nice. Some of the berries as large as 
crab apples. I would like for you to see the place where 
they were planted, weeds could not even grow. I will 
want more plants.

IS TOWNSENDS NURSERY RELIABLE? 
We Will Leave It to Our Customers to Say. 
Enclosed please find M. O. for $3.25 for the extra 
plants sent us. We wrote you on the 14th that we were 
500 plants short, and the next day received the missing 
plants by mail postpaid. Today we received a dupli- 
cate order in answer to our letter of the 14th, this 
plainly shows me that you people are on the square so 
I am going to be square with such folks too, and send 
you the money for the last lot of plants with the amount 
of postage paid on them. You have always sent us fine 
plants and we are Townsends regular customers, and 
Townsend “Boosters.”

BEST PLANTS IN 30 YEARS 
Prosser, Wash., August 20th, 1923. 
E. W. Townsend & Sons: Gents—I would like to 
tell you how cur plants done this year. We moved from 
Viola about the time the plants were shipped and left 
word with the agent to resnip them to us to Prosser, 
Wash., which would take about two days. They were on 
the road a week. But I want to say that I never saw 
better plants and never had a finer stand than now, I 
have had plants from all over the country for over 30 
years, and these are the best I have ever grown. 
Respt. yours, 
L. A. Buswell.
