Convincing Comments from Lilac Lovers 
These letters from our customers were entirely unsolicited. 
We believe they arc strong evidence for the quality of Farr Lilacs. 
FINEST PLANTS IN HIS EXPERIENCE 
Andrew McCurdy, to whom I had the Lilacs sent, and who does 
the planting in our flower-garden, tells me the Lilac plants 
purchased from you were the finest he ever transferred.— Bertha 
P. IIaldeman, Marietta, Pa. Nov. 7, 1034. 
A DOZEN LOVELY VARIETIES 
I am sending an order for Lilacs, Tree Peonies, and Siberian 
and Japanese Irises. 1 have 12 o! your Lilacs in various sizes, 
and they are very lovely.— Mrs. Edward E. Browne, Waupaca, 
Wise. March 8, 1934. 
LOOKING FOR A LARGER LILAC COLLECTION 
The shipment of Lilacs came in splendid condition, and I am 
more than pleased with them. I hope you may see my garden 
sometime when they are in bloom. If you know of anyone in 
Ohio with more than 75 varieties of Lilacs I should like to know 
who they are.— Mrs. D. B. Wolcott, Kent, Ohio. Nov. 24, 1934.

of Lilacs, you can order from our remaining list, according 
to your price and color preference, with the assurance that 
every variety here offered is a “master” Lilac. All varieties 
are equally hardy. Type, color, bloom season, and rate of 
growth, as indicated, are the basis for selection.

H. G. Seyler, 
Farr Nursery Company, Weiser Park, Pa. 
My Dear Mr. Seyler :—The Lilacs arrived in fine shape and 
are all resting in their proper places. Please accept our thanks 
for the promptness used in filling this order, and also for the 
fine plants. They are excellent specimens, with exceptionally 
fine roots. Thanking you again for your promptness, I am, 
Very truly yours, 
L. M. Van Alstyne. 
NOTE. This order included 86 plants in 62 varieties. 
AN INHERITANCE FROM AN OLD-TIME GARDEN 
My giant Lilacs are standing waiting to burst into bloom. 
They 1 ooked like an inheritance from a grandmother’s garden 
rather than new plants from a commercial nursery when they 
arrived last fall—stately already. I never in my life received such 
impressive plants.— -Mrs. David Lamutii, Hanover, N. H. 
March 7, 1934. 
20 YEARS OF SATISFACTION 
I want to say a few words about the Lilac, Diderot, which my 
wife obtained from you and gave me two years ago. It is now in 
bloom and is certainly beautiful. I have some Peonies on my 
place that I bought from Mr. Farr nearly 20 years ago and they 
are still going strong. It was largely due to one of his earlier 
catalogues that I acquired the desire for growing Peonies and 
Lilacs.—C. A. Riggs, Ft. Thomas, Ky. May 9, 1934. 
AGAIN TWENTY YEARS 
I have been and am very much pleased with your service since 
1915. Have had all kinds of plants and shrubs from you. The 
Lilacs are a wonder to the town; trees are covered with blossoms. 
One thing above others I like—if t hings are not satisfactory, you 
make them so.— Mrs. F. R. Coughran, Massachusetts.
