NO SUCCESS WITH BUDDED ROSES 



The Dingee & Conard Co., West Grove, Penna. 



Dear Sirs: — With the experience I have had and no success with 

 grafted and budded Rose bushes, I have fully made up my mind in 

 the future to plant Own Root Roses. Respectfully yours, 



J. W. Socie, Clearfield, Pa., June 18, 1928. 



The Dingee & Conard Co., West Grove, Penna. 



Dear Sirs: — I am sending you the names of three friends. Hope 

 they will give you an order soon. I need no introduction to you and 

 the merit of the firm as my mother ordered flow ers from you when i 

 was a child. They are true to name and color. 



Wishing you every success. Yours truly, 



Mrs. Jack Avens, Wyatte, Miss., Mar. 8, 1928. 



Dingee & Conard Co., West Grove, Penna. 



Gentlemen: — I would thank you for copies of your two books 

 about rose growing. I would hke to add that when my family- 

 moved to California in 1875. it was from your house that we got thp 

 Roses for our yard, they grew into trees really, and many are still 

 living. They have furnished many thousands of Roses for church 

 and school decorations in their half century. Yours truly, 



Alice E. Pratt, St. Helena, Cat, Mar. 16, 1928.
