UNSOLICITED LETTERS FROM CUSTOMERS 
“The 10 Blue Spruce arrived about two weeks ago 
in excellent condition. They are bigger and better 
rooted than I thought possible at the price/* 
K. J. K. f Kenosha, Wis. 
“Little trees received. Am much pleased with 
them. Hope to send larger order next spring/* 
M.B., Emerson, Iowa 
“My order of trees arrived this morning in excel¬ 
lent condition/* 
G. W. B., Burnside, la. 
“I received my 50 evergreens about three weeks 
ago. You cannot imagine the very pleasant surprise 
I experienced when I saw how large and healthy the 
trees were, and for such a low price.*’ 
R. G. N., Orchard Park, N. Y. 
“We received the ten Colorado Blue Spruce about 
a month ago, and we are delighted. Every one has 
fully an inch of new tips, and hope to find room to 
plant more evergreens next year. Thank you.** 
H.M., San Francisco, Cal. 
“Our ten small Colorado Blue Spruce arrived Sat. 
and we are very pleased with them and their con¬ 
dition on arrival.** 
A. U., Flint, Mich. 
“We received the ten Colorado Blue Spruce and 
some are planted. Very good looking stock.** 
A.N.H., Pittsburg, Pa. 
“The Douglas Fir I sent for were the best ever¬ 
greens I have ever bought.** 
J.C., Elk Horn, Iowa 
“The little evergreens I ordered from you arrived 
in excellent condition. They certainly are fine speci¬ 
mens with the best root systems I ever saw on small 
trees. I see no reason why they should not mature 
into healthy, hardy trees—they have the right start. 
R.B.M., Castleton, N. Y. 
“This may be unusual in business at this day and 
time, but about September 1931 I ordered one hun¬ 
dred little evergreens from you—a three dollar collec¬ 
tion—consisting of 25 each of the following: Norway 
Spruce, White Spruce, Scotch Pine, and Norway Red 
Pine. 
“The little trees were too long at the express office, 
and in bad condition. Also the autumn was hot and 
dry. I treated the roots in a bath of loamy mud and 
planted them as recommended. 
“Checking them today I have 25 Norway Spruce 
which average 4 ft. high and 3 to 4 ft. spread, 12 
White Spruce slightly smaller, 6 Scotch Pine 6 to 8 
ft. tall, and 6 Red Pine 4 to 5 ft. tall. 
“At the present time they are worth from $300.00 
to $500.00 right here. A good investment.*’ 
Frank Porter, Beckley, W. Va. 
“Received a small order from you several years 
ago, more or less for the purpose of testing our soil 
for the raising of evergreens as heretofore I have 
raised mostly deciduous plants and was dumbfounded 
to see the wonderful root system your stock has and 
the ability of these small evergreens to withstand 
winter heaving due to alternate thawing and freez¬ 
ing in this state. The tops were also nicely foliated 
and well proportioned and in spite of the draught 
they came through 100%/* 
J.N., Chicago, Ill. 
“I*m glad to say that all the trees I’ve received 
from you during the three years I*ve dealt with your 
nursery have been very satisfactory. Nearly all of 
them have grown into well shaped healthy lawn 
specimens, especially the Blue Spruce. I’ve found 
that your trees adapt themselves very readily to the 
climate here which is more than I can say for trees 
I’ve received from other nurseries. I certainly shall 
not hesitate to recommend you to others.** 
E.S., Albany, N. Y. 
“About eight years ago I purchased one of your 
combination offers. I did not know how to keep 
proper care then of the different varieties of trees 
and so a number of them died. Even considering 
this the value of these trees today, compared with 
local nursery prices, is around one hundred and 
twenty dollars. The original cost of the trees was 
around four dollars.**
