Abington, Penna. 
Dear Sir: 
I want to tell you that I do appreciate your square dealing, also the quality of the roots sent 
me in the past. I have never seen better than Kaweah, Trimbee, Jane Ross, and others received 
from you, and hope to be able to continue doing business with such a ‘ square shooter.” Success 
to you. ' ' i

Dear Mr. Parrella: 
I wish to inform you that I have grown this year, Mr. Frank W. Galloway’s Min. cactus, 
“The Little Colonel” with great satisfaction, the color is brilliant, stems long profuse bloomer. 
Little Nell is also a beauty. I have raised dahlias for nearly 50 years, and I feel that Mr. 
Galloway has in the above dahlias something extra fine.

Dear Sir: 
The dahlia tubers arrived in fine shape, and I am very much pleased with the quality of tubers 
you sent me, and am sure they will make a fine showing this season. Also wish to thank you for 
the extra tuber you sent. Will be over to see your place in early September, and will pick out 
some new stock for next season. 
Yours Truly,

A partial comment received from Professor R. G. Huey, of Paintsville, Kentucky: 
DARCY SAINSBURY has been very fine for me, winning a blue at the Ohio valley show 
in Cincinnati. 
PHYLLIS KNIGHT one of the largest flowers I have grown and has plenty of refinement 
for one so large, I found that light shade as some as the color begins to show improves the 
show quality. 
MRS. STEWART looks to be one of the good ones in this color, a good bloomer and a good 
plant.

Gentlemen: 
I have received the dahlia bulbs I ordered from you, and they were in good condition. I want 
to thank you very much for the two extra bulbs you 6ent me, they are both so nice. 
Very Truly Yours,

Dear Sir: 
I am writing to you to let you know how I got along with the dahlia seeds from you. They 
were very beautiful. The smallest was 4 ft., and the tallest was 9 ft. high. I really was sur¬ 
prised at them. The flowers were the same size as those from the roots, some of them were even 
larger. The roots were large also, you could make four or five out of one. I also had quite a 
few colors, but they were all light, none of them were dark. I am greatly pleased with them, 
and even more than satisfied. 
Sincerely Yours, 
M. B. 
Elizabeth, New Jersey. 
Dear Mr. Parrella: 
The bulbs were received in good condition, and wish to thank you for prompt attention. I 
hope to see you later and look over your stock again. Best wishes.

Dear Sir: 
Please send me your 1939 Catalogue. The dahlia seeds purchased from you last year did 
exceptionally well. I grew thirty three large stalks from the fifty seeds. One pink in particular 
seemed exceptionally fine both in color and keeping qualities. I am saving over eight clumps which 
give considerable. 
Respectfully Yours, 
I. U. 
Dear Sir: 
Both the dahlia plants, and roots, have been received.

Very truly, 
Oneonta, New York.
