THEN 



1894— Oneida Co., N.Y. 

 Dear Sir: The plants you sent me arrived 

 safely today. They looked very nice and 

 were packed first class. In fact, they were 

 the finest looking plants I ever got from 

 any nursery and I thank yon for them. I 

 shall know where to purchase in the future 

 if I want good plants. Again, thanking you 

 for your fine plants and liberal count, I 

 remain, 



Yours truly, 

 Silas Adams 



1894 — Adams Co., III. 



Dear Sir: The strawberry plants received 

 from you by mail, after a journey of 1,000 

 miles, came promptly to hand in No. 1 

 condition. I cannot see how your packing 

 could he more perfect or the plants 

 scarcely fresher if they had been taken 

 directly from the ground and set. 



Very truly yours, 

 W. H. Morris 



1894 — Dunn Co., Wis. 



Dear Sir: I desire to tell you that the 

 strawberry plants received from you this 

 spring hy mail are Jiving and doing nicely. 

 Accept my thanks. 



S. Running 



1895 — Experiment, Ga. 



Dear Sir: We are more than pleased with 

 the plants. They were unusuaiiy well 

 packed and were strong and vigorous. We

AND NOW 



April, 1972 



Dear Sir: We have bought strawberries 

 from you only in small lots but the berry 

 plants arrive in excellent condition and 

 are strong, healthy plants. We receive the 

 same courtesy you would give had we 

 ordered a large amount. Thank you again 

 for a prompt reply to our order. 



Mrs. Allan P. Baker 

 Wallingford, Vermont 

 March, 1972 



Dear Sir: We thank you so very much for 

 sharing half the loss of our plants we 

 ordered last June. It's wonderful to do 

 business with an honest company such as 

 yours. 



Harry Hovis 

 Hiram, Missouri 

 April, 1972 



Dear Sir: I appreciate the attention we 

 have received for our small orders for 

 plants. It seems that your attention to 

 small growers is equal to that of the large 

 ones. I'm sure that if I did become a large 

 grower, it would be with your plants. 



John Stemple 



Morgantown, West Virginia 



Feb., 1972 



Dear Sirs: I was born the year Mr. Allen 

 started in his strawberry plant business, 

 so come May 27th I will be 87. I have 

 bought plants of you for a good many 

 years and I am very much pleased with 

 your plants and service. This might be 

 my last order — we have only a lot here 

 where we live now but have berries to 

 sell as well as for ourselves. Thanking 

 you, I am
