Gentlemen: 
In mailing out your 1934 catalog, kindly 
note my change of address to Buena Vista, 
Colorado—same ranch, but new mail serv- 
ice. 
I am convinced that your Mile High Won¬ 
der head lettucq is a superior strain. It 
showed a uniform heading tendency under 
the most difficult conditions that I encoun¬ 
tered last year. Where I had a reasonable 
amount of moisture, it cut nearly 100%. 
I displayed this lettuce at Buena Vista, 
Colorado “Lettuce Day" and received first 
award. A number of the growers say they 
are going to try your seed this year. 
Yours very truly, 
(Signed) Lawrence E. Frees
