THE W. P. ALLEN CO., SALISBURY, MD. 
5. Hardiness. Our plants are hardy anywhere in the 
United States or Canada, wherever strawberries are 
grown. We know this because our plants have given 
and are giving excellent results in the most northern 
berry growing regions. 
6. True-to-Name. Characteristic of all Allen’s plants 
—we exercise greatest care in keeping plants straight 
when planting. All our plants are labeled in the field 
when dug and the label is never taken away until they 
are in the fields or gardens of our customers. All plants 
when dug are tied in bunches of 25 each and every 
bunch labeled. 
7. Packing System. Our plants are dug fresh for 
shipment each day. As stated before, the roots of all 
our plants are moistened before packing. They are 
packed in light, strong crates. The tops of plants are 
packed outside to give air and prevent possible heat¬ 
ing. The roots inside are well packed with light, moist 
sphagnum moss, to keep the roots and plants fresh and 
moist. 
8 - * Service. After all, the thing that makes a suc¬ 
cessful business is plenty of satisfied customers. By 
good service we mean supply the best of plants, such 
as we have just been describing. But, more than this, 
we mean also, courteous treatment, fair dealing, prompt¬ 
ness, and a willingness and desire to help in any way 
we can. These things go to make good plants and get 
them to you in good condition. That’s why we feel 
justified in asking for your order. May we have it?
