Geneva, Ohio. 
Dear Sirs: Am going to get my order in early so as to get sizes 
and varieties that I want. You may enter my order for 390 Hale 
medium 7/16, 3 to 4; 365 Elberta medium 7/16, 3 to 4; 70 South 
Haven medium, 3 to 4—825 at 8c each. 
In setting nursery stock I think the largest factor is getting the 
stock true-to-name and in the five orchards where I have used your 
trees they have been at least 99 9o the varieties which I ordered. 
I had tried to get J. H. Hale from other nurseries and usually 75% 
would be another variety when they came into bearing. 
The first 100 J. H. Hale trees purchased from you were every one 
Hales and a very heavy bearing strain and some of them had over 
3 bushels last fall on 4-year-old trees, which is very exceptional for 
that variety. 
In the 22-acre block including last year, this year, and next year’s 
setting I w'ill use about 1000 J. H. Hale, which will be about 50% of 
the trees set. Am interplanting partly Elbertas and using some South 
Haven for pollenization. Certainly hope these are as good strain of 
Hale as my previous planting. Yours very truly, 
JOHN W. WILLIAMS.
