Single and Japanese Peonies

around a ball of fine golden stamens; Japanese Peonies are 
similar except that the stamens are larger and frequently vari¬ 
colored, forming most unusual and attractive combinations.

A Series of 1934 Letters Which Require 
No Further Comment 
When I look back to twenty-five years ago, when I cut from the Country 
Lije in America an advertisement written by the late Mr. Bertrand H. Farr, 
it seems but yesterday. I wrote to Mr. Farr at that time and suggested that 
he adopt as a slogan “Better Plants by Farr.” I am enclosing the card you 
sent me and hope it will be of use to you in obtaining more customers. You 
can use my name.— Arthur F. Seep, Oil City, Pa. Oct. 30, 1933.

I am enclosing an order for Peonies amounting to $51.25. I have lullv 
150 which I have had for years. Most of them I purchased from Mr. Farr 
and never regretted that I got them from him. 1 have had other catalogues 
containing many of the varieties I have selected, and which I could have 
purchased (3-, 4-, or 5-eye) much cheaper, but I prefer to give you the pre¬ 
ference and forget the other fellow and his prices.— Arthur F. Seep, Oil 
City, Pa. Oct. 1, 1934. 
Thank you for your interest in my order. You can at any time use my 
letters as you see fit. In all my dealings with Mr. Farr and his associates I 
have never had cause for complaint. Wishing you continued success in your 
business, I remain, Arthur F. Seep, Oil City, Pa. Oct. 16, 1934. 
Farr Quality Peonies and Letters 
I sent you an order for 10 Peonies for our Garden Club last fall, and the 
stock you sent me was very satisfactory. Every one blossomed this summer, 
some having as many as five blossoms.— Mrs. Arthur Ritchie, 3 Church St., 
Belfast, Maine. Oct. 30, 1934. 
Our garden needs have been supplied by Farr for so long that Farr has 
become sort of a family institution. My best Lilacs came from Farr’s. How 
they were started I do not know, but when they reached me they were what 
I demanded—own root—the only kind that I would bother with. Out of 
hundreds of Peonies purchased from Farr’s—my first order was sent in 1910— 
not one ever failed to grow and bloom.— Minnie Long Sloan. Feb. 12, 1934. 
Please send me a list of your Irises, with prices, also list of Peonies. I 
have been looking over records of former purchases from different gardens 
and I find yours recorded as “Splendid plants,” so I am considering some 
further planting after this blooming season.— Mrs. John W. Reid, Prop., 
Mimosa Hall Gardens, Roswell, Ga. May 7, 1934.
