ber and planted outside on the first of May. On 
May 10th temperature went down to 22 deqrees. It 
was hard on the plants, but they recovered and ten 
days later withstood a temperature of 12 degrees.—

For the last two years I have taken first and 
second prizes at the men’s garden club show in Pitts- 
burgh. IT am more than pleased with the results of 
your seeds —C. TH. Boyd. 
Llanerch, Pa., Aug. 30, 19“2 
To my bitter dissappointment I have not obtained 
one seedling from two packets of your seeds.—George 
P. Rigbv. 
Detroit, Mich., July 9, 1942 
One dishkes making complaints. However, dealing 
with one person year after year, buying his seeds, and 
having his catalog lead one to believe that one hun- 
dred plants may be expected from one packet of seeds, 
at is time for some sort of objection when the promise 
has so far missed the mark. You see, we had room for 
one hundred plants; and then your one packet pro- 
duced 176 good, husky babies. That is just too much. 
What does one do? Being married to a Scotsman, my 
disposition by absorption is such that T refuse to pari 
with one seedling until I sce it in bloom. Well!—Mrs. 
David D. Dunlop. 
Sharon, Conn., July 6, 1942

I want to say a very emphatic ‘‘thank you’’ for
