My Dear Mr. Parrella :— 
I wish you to know that I have had excellent results from your dahlia bulbs. Every one has 
bloomed and we are delighted. Apparently, this was not a good year in other places, but mine 
have been very satisfactory. No borers. Sincerely, 
F. A. BERGHANE

Dear Sir:— 
I am having quite good luck with the Dahlias I got from you this Spring, but what am I to 
do to kill the Japanese beetles which are destroying the buds and flowers? If you have anything 
to suggest, I would appreciate it. Yours Very Truly,
