Nineteen Hundred and Thirteen 
The season for sending out catalogs has arrived again, and we take 
pleasure in handing you a copy and hope it will prove of interest to you. To 
our old customers we are deeply grateful for their continued patronage, and 
we pledge our best efforts to maintain the highest quality in the plants we 
send out. To those who have never tried our plants we can only say—‘‘Try 
us Once’’. If we may serve you once we believe that you will come again 
and again when you want some more of the ‘‘Plants That Grow’’. We have 
the prettiest patch to dig plants from this season we ever had, free from dis- 
ease as shown by a copy of Certificate of Inspection by State Entomologist. 
I know we can please you. You may be alittle slow in believing it, 
but it’s true; if I did not think we could please you I would not want your 
order this spring. I know you will get your money’s worth and you will never 
doubt it after you have once planted our plants. 
And, won’t you tell your neighbor about us so he can write for a catalog 
and send us his order also. You will be helping us a great deal, also doing 
your neighbor a great favor at the same time. We will appreciate it. 
I again wish to thank all our old friends for their past help and the new 
ones we expect to make. To you all, both old and new, I wish a prosperous 
and happy year. 
Yours very truly, 
LEAMON G. TINGLE.
