Sirs : I want to tell you that I raised wonderful Asters from 
the seed bought from you last year. I am sending you a snapshot 
of one blooming Aster plant (Early Beauty, White) for which I re¬ 
ceived a cash prize of five dollars in a National Flower Show. All 
of the seeds I bought from you last year grew fine plants; I had a 
beautiful flower garden.
