NET^ GUIDE TO ROSE CULTURE. 71 



Medford, N. J., 4th Mo., 5th, 1880. 

 D. & C. Co. — My box of plants came to hand in splendid condition. Certainly it pays to have them 

 sent by express. Such fine large plants, wiih earth on the roots, will grow at once, and scarcely 

 know they are moved. If generosity will make people rich you certainly will thrive. All who sent 

 by me were in great good humor over their fine plants and send thanks. 



Respectfully, your friend, P. P. STOKES. 



Baltimore, Md., April 17, 1880. 

 Messrs. D. & C. Co., Gentlemen : — My plants arrived in splendid condition, and were much 

 larger and finer than I expected. Several of them have large healthy buds on now. Accept thanks 

 for the gratis. Your generosity far exceeded my expectations. 



Respectfully, HARRY G. DALLAM.

 D. & C. Co., Gentlemen: — My last lot of plants came in fine order, as usual, and are growing 

 nicely. The Roses got of you two years ago are covered with buds ready for bloom. This is my 

 third year dealing with you, I get better plants, and more of them for the money, than from any 

 other firm I have ever tried. With thanks, 



Yours, respectfully, MRS. D. M. JENKINS.

 Messrs. D. & C. Co., Gentlemen : — I can not resist the temptation to send for more of your beau- 

 tiful Roses. They are highly appreciated here. I have been ordering from you for over three years, 

 and of all that you sent I believe scarcely one failed to grow. Last Easter morning I took with me 

 to the Church for decoration, a large clothes basket filled z'-'th hwely Buds and Roses, all gathered 

 from the little pla7its you sent vie. I think you would be astonished at their wondertul growth and 

 beauty. Very respectfully, ANNE M. D. WINGFIELD.

 D. & C. Co., Gentlemen : — In handing you the enclosed small order, I know it is unnecessary to 

 say, " Do the best you can for me." Your liberality is well known. You can depend on it that 

 wherever I go in the great United States, I advocate the growth of flowers, and especially _j't?/^r i^cjfj, 

 xvhich in my opinion lead the world in their quality and beauty.
