J. W. JONES & SON, FRANKLIN, VIRGINIA 
$2000.00 FROM 20,000 PLANTS 
J. W. Jones & Co. 
Franklin, Va. Jefferson Co., Ky., October 15th, 1937. 
Dear Sirs: I wish to express my appreciation for the fine plants I purchased 
from you in the Spring of 1936 and also this last Spring. In 1936 my order 
was for 19000 Premier and 1000 Fairfax. I also set 6000 home grown Aroma. 
Of this planting I realized $2000.00 net- But the home grown Aroma did no 
good at all, not picking over 5 crates- Fairfax did exceptionally well. 
This Spring’s planting was 18000 Premier and 2000 Chesapeake. Hardly 
lost a plant last year or this, and the young field looks as well as the old one 
did at this date last year. Old field cleaned and cultivated and looks good 
for another big crop next season. 
Very truly yours, Charles Zeigler

Truly yours, Claude McMain

all I wanted from my brother. I have ordered them from_ I told

SURVIVED DROUTH 
J. W. Jones & Co. 
Franklin, Va. Amelia Co., Va., March 8, 1937. 
Dear Sirs: Please do not fail to give us young plants. It was so dry last 
summer that we failed entirely in new set beds, except the plants we bought 
of you. Some of them lived and made nearly enough plants to fill in the 
spaces. Respectfully, S. T. Habel & Sons 
NICE CONDITION

send them at once. Yours truly, Edward Mohler
