mercial variety and gave it a good write up in our catalog. 
Believe it will go over in a big way.” “We regard your 
Peggy Lou as the outstanding U. S. introduction of last 
season and probably the greatest exhibition and commercial 
variety introduced since Picardy in 1931.” The above 
■from two large U, S. catalogers. 
“You who admire Peggy Lou,—you should see it grow 
en masse as I did. The sight is astounding.”

my lot to see.” A. J. Amsler, in Nov. ’39 Iowa GLAD
