 Messrs. J. G. Harrison & Sons, 



Berlin, Md. 

 Gentlemen : 



I have great pleasure in stating 

 that the stock from your Nurseries which 

 I received and planted on my place has 

 done well, especially the apples. The 

 apples are the Ben Davis variety and have 

 made a wonderful growth. 



Occasionally you will talk with a 

 man who has an idea that trees bought from 

 the South will not do as well as northern 

 grown trees. Your representative, Mr. P. 

 C. Squires, saw these trees himself and 

 made the remark that he wished he could 

 photograph some of the Ben Davis apple 

 trees after being planted two years. 



I have some wonderful strawberry 

 beds and had the honor of first introduc- 

 ing in this state the "Parsons" variety 

 from your nurseries through your Mr. 

 P. C. Squires, who I think is the right 

 man in the right place. 



I have also heard from several 

 fruit growers who have received your trees 

 in this section. They all seem to be well 

 satisfied with the quality of the goods. 

 Sincerely yours, 



2/^ ^/jetr

 seem to be well satisfied with the quality. "
