Dear Sirs: — Silver Creek, New York, June 12, 1915. 



I would like to write you about my Charles Dingee Rose. I bought a 

 10 cent Rose from you three years ago, and this summer it is just won- 

 derful. Each winter I have enclosed my Hybrid Tea Roses in good sized cold 

 frames, so they retained their leaves all winter, even two years ago they with- 

 stood 23 degrees below zero, never hurting them at all. This summer the Charles 

 Dingee is the finest Rose I have, producing so many large, beautiful Roses on long, 

 stiff stems, and have so many petals like the La France, and they last so long. 

 Give me a Rose like the Charles Dingee and the La France. If you have any 

 more like them I would like to get them. 



Tours truly, IDA M. MONTGOMERY.
