RECOMMENDA TIONS 
For a number of years I have 
planted my first house with spawn 
which I purchase from all the reliable 
spawn manufacturers in this country, 
in order to get a line on the quality 
each was producing and to guide me 
in choosing which I should use for 
the bulk of my planting. A propor¬ 
tion of your spawn was planted in j| 
this house each year and I wish to 
let you know that over a period of 
ten years your spawn brought just i 
as good a crop and the mushrooms 
were of just as good quality as the j 
spawn of the other manufacturers. 
I would not hesitate to use your 
spav/n or to recommend it to my 
friends, in fact, I have already done 
ii both.

Dear Mr. Swanson: 
We are very glad to learn that 
you will have spawn this year in 
time for the early fall crop.

For the last few years we have 
been using nothing but your spawn 
with the bes£ results. With the ex- j| 
ception of last year, as you know, 
we had spawn from three different j 
concerns and are very glad to let 
you know that your spawn proved j 
to be the most satisfactory. 
Yours very truly,

Dear Sir:

The spawn is doing well, the 
from you is bearing very well, and 
mushrooms are fine and a good crop- 
have obtained two very good crops 
per. They grow so large some of 
already. We hope that this spawn 
them weigh 18 oz. each and white 
will bring us the same good crops as 
as cotton. Can you send me some

more as good as that was. White is 
had from you for many years and
