Gentlemen :— The thirty-two hundred (3200) peach 
trees you sent me went through the peculiarly trying 
season of '96 nicelv and came out this spring in good 
shape. I think better than those of my neighbors.

Gentlemen thank vou for your prompt ship- 
ments last spring, so 'proi"Pt that we finished 
planting the seven acres before April 21st. To-day I 
could not find one dead tree, and manv have already 
made a growth of over eight inches. ' Only the best 
stock would have done this.

Gentlemen : — The 200 trees were received in good 
condition. Am well pleased with their appearance. 
They are growing beautifully.

Your trees have made a wonderful growth and all 
came into full bearing last year. Admired by all 
who .see them. VVe took ist premium on 3 varieties of 
Plums and 4 varieties of Grapes at State fair, fruit 
grown from your trees. We had 3 Beurre Clargeau 
^ars grown on the Dwarf trees set last year that 
weighed 3 lbs. F. F. Hansbury.

I am glad to report that I never received any trees 
or shrubs from any nursery in better condition. All 
have grown well. Some received from another 
nursery- at same time were much inferior.

Plants I received have grown finely. I am only 
waiting the spring to give you another order.

My trees arrived the 15th. I have examined them 
and find them in good condition. Every one who 
has seen them thinks they are the best that have been 
sent in here this season. Enclosed find my check 
for full amount. Very truly, Wm. R. Keefer.

The 300 apple trees you sent me have grown finely. 
I have lost but one tree. Edward Uhl, 
Niagara Co., N. Y., Dec. 19, 1898. 
Gentlemen ; — The apple trees purchased from you 
last Spring have done exceedingly well — only lost 
one out of 800. I certainly believe the principle of 
raising trees without the Stimulus of strong: nitro- 
genous fertilizer is correct and the very favorable re- 
sult with these trees would confirm that opinion. 
Personally 1 much prefer, and believe there is a 
growing demand for well grown, vigorous trees of 
normal development budded from the best and 
most productive types of the respective varieties. 1 
am confident that with such trees I can get quicker 
and better results than is possible with the average 
nursery stock. W. T. Mann. 
When you know that Mr. Mann is one of the most 
progressive and practical Fruit Growers of Niag- 
ara County you will do well to listen to him. We do 
not sell through Agents Or Jobbers. Order 
direct and save money. 
We shall be glad to furnish the full address of any
