highly pleased with them — the best plants I ever 
saw. No such plants ever before have beep 
shipped here. B. L. Pattin. 
Montana — Bozeman, June 4, 1914. The plants 
which I recently ordered from you arrived in 
first-class condition. I was mucli surprised and 
pleased at the size and strength of the plants. 
R. A. Barnes. 
Nebraska — Ansley, March 9, 1914. With pleas- 
ure I now send you a small order for plants. I 
think I know what I am to get, as I have bought 
plants from you for eighteen years, more or less, 
and they were always good — couldn't be better. 
Nate Hoover. 
New Hampshire — Hanover, May 8, 1914. I am 
very much indebted for the plants you shipped 
May 5th- It is easy to see why your name is 
known all over America as the best people to 
buy strawberry plants from. 
B. Gordon Bill. 
New Jersey — Hilton, May 13, 1914. The last 
shipment of plants arrived today. The previous 
one of 15,000 came to hand Saturday the 9th. 
All arrived in excellent condition, and the plants 
are the finest ever seen in this part of the coun- 
try — admired by all who have seen them. Please 
accept our thanks for all favors in connection 
with our order. The plants are fine. 
J. C. Stilwell. 
New York — Franklinville, July 11, 1914. In the 
sprinff of 1912 I set an acre of your strawber ry 
plants. Last year it brouglit me in over $300 in 
the face of the worst drouth known in this vicin- 
ity. It was my intention to plow up the field 
this sprinff, but I finally decided to let it remain 
and see what it would do. We simply pulled 
the weeds out of it once, and although we have 
not had a sin.gle rain for some time before the 
fruiting season began, it has brought me in over 
J400. C. W. Hogue. 
Ohio — Gypsum, September 25, 1913. We ordered 
12,000 plants from you last spring, which we re- 
ceived in excellent condition. It was very hot 
and dry at the time of setting and we were in 
doubt about their coming. But they did remark- 
ably well, in spite of the continued dry weather, 
when the runners were setting. We think your 
selection and care of plants has been responsible 
for their fine growth. C. L. Achor. 
Oklahoma — Braman, March 21, 1914. I have 
got plants from many other places, but I would 
not give 25 of your plants for 1,000 plants that 
I have from any other firm. I have never lost 
one of your plants out of 50, and yours will 
yield three times as many berries and much 
larger. In fact, you will, after this, receive all 
my orders. W. R. White. 
Oretron — Eugene, March IS, 1914. I received 
the strawberry plants all riKht in good condi- 
tion and am well pleased with them. They are 
sure fine ones. T. W. Circle. 
Great Bend. March 30, 1914.' I send you an 
order for strawberry plants, as I know the quality 
you send out. I have had some of your plants 
and they produced the best berries ever grown 
in this section, and were most prolific and sat- 
isfactory. A. S. Benedict 
Tennessee — Nashville, April 20, 1914. Order No. 
9S98 received April 18th in fine condition. Set 
out promptly while it was cloudy and then re- 
ceived a good, drencliing rain. They are growing 
"to beat the band" already. C. S. Ball. 
Texas — Hillsboro, March 1, 1914. The plants 
ordered from you some time ago, and which you 
shipped from your Oregon farm, arrived in fine 
condition in spite of the fact that they were on 
the road seven days. I never have seen nicer or 
more vigorous plants. W. G. Escott. 
Utah— Salt Lake City, April 16, 1914. The berry 
plants arrived all (). K. .iust one month .igo, and 
they wei'e the finest jilants I ever saw. I have 
not lost a single plant, which is great, I think. 
D. A. Affleck. 
Middletown Springs, May 15. 1914. T received 
the strawberry plants sent May 4th, the evening 
of the 6th, Set them out the next day. Such 
splendid plants I never saw. Not a poor plant 
in the 1.500. They already have commenced to 
grow. Mrs. Claude Barden. 
Vlrfflnia — Luray, April 25, 1914. Please par- 
don delay In acknowledging the strawberry plants. 
MORE THAN $2,000 PER ACRE 
'T'HE scene herewith Is of the garden of W. H. 
Davis at Durango, Colo. Mr. Davis is a railroad 
man who has specialized in -strawberries, using the 
Kellogg Senator Dunlap plants for the work. Some 
montlis ago he sent us a letter signed by several 
railroad otTicials and his neighbors, testifying to the 
fact that the field shown in the engraving, com- 
prising approximately 700 square feet, yielded 244 
quart bo.xes of exceptionally fine fruit. This was at 
the rate of $2,196 per acre. Mr. Davis's experience 
with strawberries has led him to consider engaging 
extensively In the work of strawberry growing. He 
believes that the possibilities along this line are 
excelled in no other line of horticulture, and his ad- 
miration for Kellogg plants Icnows no bounds. 
which were very fine indeed. Heavily rooted and 
strong crowns. Many thanks. Every plant is 
startin.ar off nicely and it looks as if they will be 
money-makers. D. N. Cave. 
'Washinglion — Palouse, September 5. 1913. My 
Kellogg berries beat anything on this market 
for quality, and I sold them at better prices than 
anything- sliipped in from Spokane. 
J. T. Arnold. 
'West Virginia — New Cumberland, April 28, 1914. 
I I'eceived the plants whicli you shipped the 13th 
inst. on the 15th, and set them. They started 
new growth within three days. 
C. Hahn. 
'Wisconsin — Milton, May 1, 1914. I am proud 
of my strawberry field. It is planted to as fine 
a looking bunch of berry plants as I have ever 
seen. Every one seems full of life and vigor. 
M. A. Drew. 
Wyoming — Thermopolis, June 27, 1914. In the 
spring of 1913 I got plants from you for a small 
patch. We are all so pleased that we want to set 
a l.ii'ger patch. 0\ir neighbors all think our little 
patch is the greatest thing they ever saw, and it 
will not hurt the Kellogg plants here. 
L. J. Suhig. 
CANADA 
British Columbia — Victoria. March 7, 1914. Re- 
ceived 4.000 plants in good condition. They are 
cfertainly very fine plants — the best I have ever 
seen, having such well-formed roots. A very 
choice lot. H. D. Cotton. 
Ontario — Gowanstown, May 28, 1914. We re- 
ceived the plants that you sent in good condi- 
tion and every plant grew. 1 can recommend 
them to anybody. Mrs. B. F. Knipe.

strawberry plants sent by parcel post arrived by 
rural delivery this morning in fine condition. 
Allan MacQuarrie. 
Quebec — Montreal, February 27, 1914. I have 
had Kood luck with your plants in Canada on 
lieavy clay land. The berries I grew here were 
simply wonderful. I would be afraid to say how 
many bo.xes I picked from a small plot about lialf 
the size of a tennis court. N. M. Lash.
