YOU KNOW SOME OF THESE PEOPLE 



Here are the unsolicited comments of a few well-known 

 growers and firms who have purchased stock from us during 

 the past season. They are business people who are sincere 

 in what they say and do not make statements just to see 

 their names in print. 



"Your letter and the wonderful boxes of irises have just 

 reached me. Thanks for both, but especially for the care 

 with which the rhizomes had been selected. They are abso- 

 lutely firm and certainly better than average size." 



MRS. L. W. KELLOGG, 



Over-the-Garden-Wall, 

 West Hartford, Conn. 



"The perfectly splendid iris roots came in good order and 

 are growing strongly already (July 24). Needless to say, 

 they are about the best lot I have ever received from any 

 source." 



J. C. NICHOLLS, 



Ithaca, N. Y. 



"The iris rhizomes came today in splendid condition. 

 Such stock I have not seen before; how do you grow themf" 



DR. J. H. NEELEY, 



Paulding, Ohio. 



"We received the shipment of iris this morning in splen- 

 did condition and they are extra nice plants." 



THE PEIEFFER NURSERY CO., 



Winona, Minn. 



"I have just received the shipment of 'Brusio' and they 

 were very fine roots. Thajiks for the gentrous count." 



HARCOURT M. TAYLOR, 



Yakima, Wash. 



"I am very much pleased with the irises which you sent. 

 In all my experience in buying from many parts of the coun- 

 try I have never received finer stock." 



WM. M. JOHNSTON, 



43 Cotton Street, 

 Newton, Mass. 



"You certainly need not apologize for any of those plants. 

 They were as fine as any I have ever received and were in 

 splendid condition. I am more than pleased with them and 

 know my customers will be also." 



MISSOULA IRIS GARDEN, 



W. E. Schrciber, 

 Missoula, Mont. 



"The irises arrived in fine condition after their long jour- 

 ney. Your rhizomes are larger than ours." 



MRS. JOHN T. LOVE, 

 Towson, M(i 



"Klamath came in fine condition and is a splendid root 

 I don't see how you grow them so large. Surprise made six 

 divisions this year." 



L. MERTON GAGE, 

 Sunnyside Gardens, 

 ~ riatiek, Mass. 



"The first lot of irises arrived yesterday. They were in 

 splendid condition and there is nothing of which we could 

 complain. The quality of your stock and the courteous and 

 efficient way in which you have handled this order will cer- 

 tainly encourage us to further business." 



THE SCARBORO GARDENS CO., 



W. J. France, 

 Scarboro, Ont., Canada. 



"I have never seen such wonderful rhizomes! Perfectly 

 huge, and I am very much pleased and proud to possess such 

 an order." 



MRS. K. L. BROWNE, 



Olde Time Gardens, 

 Kansas City, Kas.

"Your irises came through in the best shape of any that 

 I received. They seem to grow larger in the Far West than 

 in this section." 



VIRGIL V. JOHNSON, 



1125 Grand Concourse, 



New York City.

"In the few years that I have made irises my hobby I 

 liave received them from both obscure and very prominent 

 growers, but never such rhizomes as you have put out. A 

 year ago I bought some stock of Morning Splendor from you 

 which was fully up to your standard, and they put out some 

 wonderful blooming stalks for me and gave blooms that were 

 up t(j the advertised standard — performing in every way as 

 if they had been established two or three years instead of 

 one. I know that I could not ask or expect anything better." 



GEO. D. JOPSON, 

 Saugerties, N. Y. 



And so you see why our business is growing each year, 

 and the reason that Robert Wayman, for example, has given 

 us a substantial order for the third successive season.
