Upland, Calif., 
Jan. 1942. 
Cfrustings, bee, 
Thank you for sending for this Cata- 
logue. We hope that you will find within 
its pages just the lilies you are looking for. 
We want to thank our customers for the 
splendid letters written us regarding the 
plants ordered; also to assure new custom- 
ers that we shall always give our best, 
both in plants and service. 
We have been growing Water Lilies 
for 11 years. Beginning with the depres- 
sion in 1930 we have worked up a business 
which has reached to many foreign coun- 
tries. We have shipped lilies to India, 
China, France, South America, the Phil- 
ippines, Honolulu, Mexico and Canada, 
besides having customers all over the 
United States. 
We maintained an exhibit throughout 
the duration of the Golden Gate Interna- 
tional Exposition at San Francisco during 
the years of 1939 and 1940 for which we 
received the highest award (the Gold 
Certificate of Merit.) 
We received the First Premium Award 
at the California State Fair in 1940 and 
1941. 
We are enlarging our growing grounds 
and adding new varieties of plants each 
year. 
Assuring you of the very best in both 
plants and service and looking forward 
to serving you, we are, 
Very sincerely, 
/? & Vaw Kaan
