*' The Mushroom Spawn I had from you last year turned out very good indeed. 
The Mushrooms were showing within a month from the time the bed was spawned. 
The persons who saw them said they were a very line lot of Mushrooms. Some weighed 
about three-quarter pound each." 
From Mr. G. BEETON, Head Gardener to W. K. D’Arcy, Esq., 
The Gardens, Bylaugh Park. 
" I am very pleased with the Mushroom Spawn you have supplied to ub for several 
seasons ; it is very productive, and the Muslirooms are of fine quality. This season it. 
promises to be equally good, as Muslirooms were showing in five weeks from the time the 
bed was spawned."
