Appreciated Letters

Hill Dahlia Nurseries: 
Battle Creek, Michigan 
Enclosed find some postage stamps for which please send 
me as many Rite-U-R celluloid plant labels as stamps will pay for. 
And I wish to report that the blooms borne on the plants which 
grew from roots and green plants bought from you last spring 
have been highly' praised by all who saw them and they 1 help¬ 
ed to brighten the hours for many a shut-in to whom they 
were given by me. And they were much better than any I 
ever grew before. I shall want more next spring and when 
you send out your catalogues for next year’s trade, please 
send me some extra copies and I think I can place them 
where they will bring you some sales. Thanking you for the 
fine collection of green plants and roots received, I am 
Sincerely yours for "Better Dahlias 
for the coming year,’’

Dear Mr. Hill: 
Just another word of praise and appreciation for the 
wonderful stock of Dahlias you carry. They have made it 
possible for me to win the highest award, the sweepstakes cup, 
in the amateur class, which includes those raising from one 
to fifty plants. 
This annual show of the Central States Dahlia Society was 
held at the Garfield Park conservatory, Sept. 25-26, in Chicago. 
This is my second year growing your Dahlias. 
Last year I took fourteen ribbons and a medal for the 
largest bloom which was your Murphy’s Masterpiece and this 
year I took eighteen ribbons and the sweepstakes cup for the 
largest number of points at the show, ten firsts, five seconds, 
and three thirds. 
Thirty-seven out of forty-three points were made from 
your stock. 
Wishing you continued success, 
FRANK C. GOSSWILLER,
