THE PLANT SITUATION— 197S 



The very special effort W. F. Allen Company has put 

 into growing high quality plants for 87 years pays off 

 when YOU, our valued customer, have a successful stand 

 of plants and a bountiful harvest. That's what it's all about! 



Thanks to our care — and fine growing weather — we are 

 pleased to report plant stocks are excellent. No shortages are 

 anticipated but you can help us plan our work by ordering early. 



Again this year, there will be NO PRICE INCREASE for our 



superior plants. This is not because our costs have not been higher, 

 but because we realize our customers are caught in the same in- 

 flationary spiral we are in. Also, we feel that it is in the spirit of 

 the President's request, even though strawberry plants are exempt. 



We will be waiting to hear from you. 



ALLEN'S SUPERIOR VIRUS FREE PLANTS remain as the 

 STANDARD OF THE INDUSTRY and your assurance of plants 

 that will GROW FOR YOU
