Jackson Co., Mo., March 27, 1913. 

 We received the plants you sent' us about a week 

 ago in very good condition. The people here do 

 not use the nice old flowers used so much in the 

 east and abroad; no one can understand why we 

 should want Hollyhocks, but we hope to be able 

 to show them the reason.

Champaign Co., Ohio, Xov. 25. 1913. 

 I received the box of Peony roots you sent me 

 to-day. I thank you very much for the excep- 

 tional nice roots. I have them all planted: am 

 sure they will all gi'ow, they are so thrifty and 

 fine. Lucy E. Taylor.
