aEEEEIEGS 2 
I wish to thank you all for your orders, and for your letters of 
appreciation and helpful criticism received during the past year. 
I wish to apologize to any of you who were late in receiving any 
of your plants or who still have some plants coming to you. I will see 
to it that your patience is rewarded, hy including some extra plants 
with your order. All late-filled orders contain extra plants, 
I hope to he able to fill each and every order promptly this year, 
but again must urge you to order early, as I have no control over 
supply and demand, weather conditions and other factors which often 
necessitate cancellation or holding-up of your order. I do not substi¬ 
tute unless you desire, in which case,please advise me of second choice, 
I am most grateful for all the names and addresses of your garden¬ 
ing friends, which have greatly helped to reduce the cost of advertis¬ 
ing, thereby enabling us to pass this saving on to you, by including 
extra plants with your order. You may be a party who received this list 
through a friend, by this method. Trust we can add many new names this 
year, for which we will continue to repay this kindness in extras. 
I am sorry I cannot fulfill my desire, which was to have my mjf 1941 
Price-List printed and illustrated. Existing costs and business uncert¬ 
ainty won * t permit it, so again a mimeographed list must suffice. 
Please keep it for accurate cultural requirements,colors,heights and 
blooming-dates, or if disinterested, kindly pass on to a gardening friend. 
Hoping you find something of interest in this list and assuring you 
that, your orders will have my usual personal attention, I remain, 
very sincerely yours,
