November 7, 1932 the business sus¬ 
tained an irreparable loss. However, 
the standards that both my grand¬ 
father and father used in doing busi¬ 
ness still hold true under the present 
management and are such that we 
have many satisfied customers and 
friends all over the country. Sixty years 
of growing the best plants that nature 
enables us to produce have taught us 
the necessity of careful handling and 
packing and this factor has enabled us 
to hold our customers and convert 
them into friends. kenneth e. gillett

The founder's ideals will continue to govern our attitude toward 
plants, friends and business.
