“Over 35 Years of Successful Strawberry Plant 
Culture.”. 
C. L. Botkin of Ohio writes as follows: Dec. 7, 1937. 
“T am writing to get your prices on strawberry 
plants. I did not get to set any strawberry plants 
the past summer and I want to set about one acre 
this spring. I sure want your plants. I know what 
I am getting.” 
And on May 16th, 1938: “This is a late date to 
write you about the strawberry plants. I received 
your card March 28, 1938, at 11:30 o’clock that you 
had shipped the plants. By 3 o’clock the same day, 
I had the plants at home and I got 5000 set out in 
March and the rest later. I want to thank you for 
the wonderful plants you sent me. They sure were 
fine. You will get my order for strawberry plants 
when I need more, and the price was right.”
