Dear Sirs: Red Wing, Minn. 
Please accept my than\s for the Lady Slipper Plants. I have 
planted them in leaf mold in a shady place and watered them 
down good. Here is hoping they will live and grow. They were 
so nice well rooted plants there is no reason why they should not. 
And those nice Lily Bulbs, such fat, sound bulbs I have never 
seen, especially the Coral Lily bulbs. I didn’t even \now they 
got so big as those you sent me. And all of them were a surprise 
to me, for size. If I only could have more of them. Thanfiing you 
again. 
Yours truly, 
Mrs. J. P. 
Gentlemen: Hoquiam, Washington

Very truly yours, 
O. C. L. 
Dear Sirs : Bos Angeles, Cal.
