ENDORSEMENTS 
Some people who have been in the business many years, as we have, do not think 
it necessary to introduce evidence confirming the quality of stock they ship out, hut as 
each year many of our catalogs fall into the hands of prospective buyers, many of whom 
hat-e not dealt with «s. we think it well to submit tlie following endorsements from 
planters who have bought our stock in quantity and have same in fruiting. In reading 
these endorsements please bear in mind that anyone can put out flattering testimonials 
covering recent shipments but the letters which follow cover years of actual fruitage. 
Please note the address of each party is given and if you care to correspond with any 
of these planters covering the quality of our stock and our business methods you are at 
liberty to do so.
