REDSTAK. The Best very late and the latest very good berry 



OLD FRIENDS 



For 50 Years a Friend and Customer 



Berkshire Co., Mass., Nov. 12, 1940. I have 

 been buying plants from you for over fifty years 

 and expect to come to you again next spring 

 for my supply of strawberry plants. — Mr. George 

 G. Walker. 



With Us for 45 Years 



Rappahannock Co., Va., Feb. 6, 1940. I have 

 been your customer for 45 years. Now I am too 

 old to set them out so I am giving you some 

 names. I can recommend your berries, the finest 

 we have ever grown. — Mrs. J. J. Silvey. 



Booster After 45 Years 



Baltimore Co., Md., March 16, 1940. I have 

 helped to plant and planted for myself plants 

 from your firm for over 45 years and to this 

 day I am a booster of your stock and treatment. 

 I wish you continued success. — Capt. Albert 

 Pfeiffer. 



Allen's Plants Used for 3 Generations 



Windham Co., Vt., Jan. 20, 1940. Your catalog 

 just at hand and I hasten to enter my order for 

 this year. For nearly 12 years I have had plants 

 from you. Two or three times I tried raising 

 my own plants but never had the success that 

 I do when putting in your plants each year. 

 Your plants have always been a "sure crop" for 

 me and your concern has been a by-word in my 

 family for years. My grandfather was one of 

 your first customers from this vicinity and I 

 know others here have ordered from you because 

 of his success and good-looking strawberry bed. 

 — Mr. Robert G. Pratt. 



Allen's Plants Are Still Good! 



Cabarrus Co., N. C, Nov. 6, 1939. Inclosed is a 

 check for strawberry plants. Wish to say my 

 mother, Mrs. .T. L. Sifferd, ordered her plants 

 from you some 20 or 30 years ago and always 

 found them good. — Mrs. Fred Shepherd. 



AND NEW 



Made a Profit in First Try 



Lycoming Co., Pa., March 18, 1940. Three years 

 ago I sent you an order containing among others 

 300 Catskill. I was 17 years old and had never 

 grown anything before in my life. I followed 

 the instructions in your book and they grew fine 

 and healthy. I was more than pleased with the 

 results of Catskill. They were so large that we 

 were selling them at 25^ a quart while along- 

 side of us others were selling at 10^ and 15^ 

 per quart- We had no trouble to sell all of 

 them at that premium price. That spring I 

 made $56.00 and they only cost me (counting 

 everything) about $13.00. I was well pleased 

 ^vith those plants and I inclose another larger 

 order, confident that I will receive the same high 

 quality.— Mr. Robert J. Baier. 



A Rank Amateur Succeeds 



Providence Co., R. I., Aug. 20, 1940. This 

 spring I purchased 250 strawberry plants from 

 you and they surely have been very satisfactory, 

 especially as I am a rank amateur at raising 

 strawberries. Among the assortment that I 

 purchased were 50 of the Everbearing Gem and 

 I am enjoying strawberries right along and 

 from the set it looks as if I -would enjoy them 

 for some time to come. — Mr. Fred G. Clemenci. 



A Beginner Is Successful 



Tucker Co., W. Va., April 20, 1940. I received 

 my 400 plants O. K. Didn't get to set them for 

 three days as we were having a rainy spell, but 

 was looking at them today. They are starting 

 fine. I am very proud of them. Last year was 

 my first experience in strawberries. I had a 

 fine crop from your Premier. They are looking 

 fine this spring. 



First Try — Finest Prospect 



Greene Co., Tenn., Feb. 1, 1940. Last year I 

 ordered some 1200 plants from you and want to 

 say they were everything you advertised. My 

 plants lived well and while this is my first try 

 at raising strawberries, I have the finest pros- 

 pect anyone could wish. I am ordering more. — 

 Mr. Jay I. Brooks.
