Gentlemen: The Hyacinthy peice * 
from you last fall for window cult 
were extra nice. One lady writes 
she had 16-inch spikes, also a second 
spike ay so tall on Myosotis and Haar- 
lem. I have Thalia Narcissus open, a _ 
lovely thing. a

Gentlemen: I would like to tell you ; 
that the first bulbs I received from you 
were the best I have ever planted, and - : 
the most beautiful. \

Gentlemen: The bulbs arrived in ~ 
good condition. The Tulips are as fine 
as those we used to receive from Hol- 
land. A little smaller perhaps, but the — 
same fine quality. You are to be con- 
gratulated on perpetuating them in the — 
United States. To me one of the sad- 
dest things of the present war is the © 
destruction of the fine fields of Tulips — 
in Holland and the enslavement of her 
people. A peace-loving, industrious — 
people robbed of their homes and their 
livelihood. May it soon be over. The — 
Iris came through in good shape, too. 
Wishing you success in your work, — 
I am, 
Yours very truly,

Dear Sir: As I had such wonderful 
Begonias from you before—one red 
measured six inches across grown in 
a pot—I hereby enclose one dollar for 
same again, single or double does not ~ 
matter, but surely a white one and pink ~ 
if you have them. Send them when 
danger of frost is past, and a dollar's 
worth. Use your judgment. 
Sincerely your pleased customer, 
MRS.

Dear Sirs: I saw your advertisement — 
in the Herald-Tribune and want two — 
of these Tuber-Rooted Begonias. I have _ 
had your Begonias for several years and 
I love them. Many people enjoy seeing 
them, too, and I have taken the blooms 
to flower shows where they create quite 
a sensation. I have lost my lovely big 
white double one. So please make one 
tuber the white double one, and the 
red double one, or any color, I am not 
particular. Your bulbs are always very 
koed and I have grand luck with them 
all, 
Yours truly,

Dear Sir: I have received my re-~ 
gg order of Lily bulbs. 5 
have dealt with many nurseries and — 
have had occasion to ask for replace- 
ment, but your firm is the first to send 
such first-class merchandise. The bulbs 
were truly splendid in size. I planted 
them with due regard for proper drain- 
age and if they don’t produce magnifi- 
cent blooms, it will be no one’s fault 
but my own. 
I wish to thank you for “‘bending 
over backward”’ to please a customer— 
I appreciate it. 2 
Sincerely,

Dear Sirs: Thank you for your coure — 
teous and generous response to my 
complaint about Daffodils. 
The replacements are already planted — 
and covered. 
I always come here and have to do 
it early when I have the leaves—earlier 
indeed than is usually advised but it 
does not seem to do any harm, a 
My annual order is never large but 
I have had some very pleasing displays 
of your bulbs in my borders—attrac- — 
tive enough often to bring friends and — 
strangers too with their cameras. 
Thanking you again for making good © 
on the soft bulbs, 
Very truly, 
MISS HELEN G. SMYTHE.
