a range of territory as this kind. It will thrive 
where any peach can be grown. A beautiful 
Peach of good quality, not only the best 
orchard variety but also valuable for planting 
in the garden. Elberta is hardier in bud than

nursery row but Kelly Brothers Nurseries salable trees have been 
examined in the summer of 1942 and are thought to be true-to-name.

HE HAS BOUGHT NURSERY STOCK FOR FIFTY YEARS 
Boston, Mass. 
Kelly Brothers’ Nurseries, Dansville, N. Y. 
Gentlemen: I received your letter saying that you could not fill my last 
small order. It is clearly through your own doings that this has occurred. 
Fifty years ago I used to visit Rochester, Geneva, and other nursery centers 
to buy nursery stock. They were all good people to deal with and at times I 
made some heavy purchases, but in all my dealings I have never met any 
people who seemed so well to exemplify the essentials of sound and successful 
business as you people. You like and insist upon having good stock, and you 
follow this up by also insisting that the receivers of your plants should treat 
them with that good sense and care which alone can insure a successful and 
profitable result. Following up these lines builds up a patronage that takes 
your entire output and clamors for more. 
Today you show added good sense by not attempting to fill incoming orders 
with stock grown by others, but simply stop until another season. 
Please accept my best wishes and believe me, 
Sincerely yours, 
JAMES H. BOWDITCH
