To H. S. Wiley. I am very griad to learn you are disseminating the Mersereau black- 
berry plants. Its large size, handsome appearance and excellent quality make it the best 
seller we have. We handled a good many the past summer and found ready sale at two or 
three cents per quart over any other variety. A. E. Andrews, Grocer, 6 South St, 
I hope you will succeed in selling many plants of the new blackberry, Mersereau. We 
find nothing to equal it in size, beauty and quality; It commands a much higher price among 
our customers than any other kind. Our customers want the best and they get it always in 
the Mersereau." Fred WrcsTOvrcR. buyer for E. N. Ross, wholesale and retail grocer.
