•’Friend Tuttle:— 1 have neglected to reply to your notice of shij>- 
ment ofjessie plants, until I should be able to set them out and see 
how they turned out. 'There happened to be no water in the ditch 
when they arrived, and as they seemed in good condition. I thought 
they would do belter in the package until I could get water than they 
would do set in the dry earth with what sprinkling I could give them. 
You will observe that we waitfor water in this country instead of rain 
and it being very low and scarce at this time of the year, we have to 
take turns and wait until we can gel it. I set them out yesterday 
morning, and as I got the ground moistened around them 1 think, they 
willdowell. jThey were shipped in open basket, Sepr. 18, therefore 
ten days in the package. A. C. 1
