From a Customer in Falmouth, Mass.: 
“Had exceptionally good results this 
past year from your seeds. I particularly 
wish to mention the Carnation seed which 
we had from you. The blooms were gor¬ 
geous and greatly admired by many visi¬ 
tors. Many of them measured 3 Yi inches 
across, the largest I’ve ever had.’’
