Set 10,000 Allen Plants— Never Lost One. 
Clinton Co., N. Y., April 18, 1949. On March 15th, I ordered 
my strawberry plants shipped and received them on the 18th of 
March and they were in fine condition. Could not set them at 
once so put in cold storage until the 1st day of April when we 
started to set; finished on the 4th. I ordered 4,000 Premier, 
4,000 Catskill, 1,000 Fairfax, 600 Gem and 200 Robinson, 
which is almost 10,000 plants and never lost a plant which is a 
record, so wanted to thank you again for your nice plants and 
prompt service.

Allen's Plants Recommended to Neighbors. 
Jefferson Co., Ohio, Jan. 1, 1949. The 300 Premier plants I 
got from you last year are a picture to behold. I never saw more 
rugged plants nor have I seen so many runners. Am looking 
forward to a minimum of 300 quarts this spring because by now 
I know what they will do. I recommend your plants to everyone 
in this area. Berries are my hobby, so you may never, hear the 
end of me. May you have 60 more years of luscious berry 
prosperity.

Likes Truthful Variety Description. 
Marion Co., W. Va., Feb. 5, 1949. In regard to the 2,000 
strawberry plants that I ordered from you last spring, your 
plants are really nice plants and they should please anybody. 
I am looking forward to a big crop of berries this season. I 
received your spring catalog and like it very much. I like the 
way you describe the different varieties of plants, giving the bad 
points as well as the good points. This is a great aid in the 
selection of different varieties.
