of the fact that we have a score or more of men in onr employ who Imve worked for us from ten to thirty- 
five years. Our farm foreman, our greenhouse foreman and our general superintendent, all middle-aged 
men, have grown up with us and have never worked anywhere else. In these days when so many work¬ 
ingmen are of the “floater” type it is most helpful and comforting to have trained, efficient employees who 
know just what to do and how and when to do it. We give credit in no small measure to their loyalty 
and efficiency for the success and continuous growth of our business. It enables us to give the right kind 
of service in growing, grading, packing and shipping,—the kind of service which pleases and holds our 
customers and brings us additional ones. 
When you are “in a tight pinch” for something which you want quickly and just right, write or wire 
us. We will “be there with the goods.”
