I wanted to tell you the Tulip bulbs 
I received from you last fall were the 
largest, healthiest bulbs I have ever 
bought. Even when I paid much higher 
prices. I am looking forward to some 
delightful blossoms this spring. 
Very respectfully yours, 
MRS. LAURENCE E. TOWLE, SR.

I would like to take this opportunity 
to tell you what wonderful results I 
have had from the Narcissus bulbs I got 
from you last fall. They are in full 
bloom now and are gorgeous. We are 
thoroughly enjoying them. 
Very respectfully, 
MRS. P. W. JUDAH.

The Daffodil and Tulip bulbs we 
bought from you last fall were very 
fine and vigorous. The Daffodils are 
blooming now. The Tulips are grow- 
ing beautifully with large buds devel- 
oped. They will soon be in bloom. We 
are well pleased with them.

Gentlemen: 
Several years ago I purchased three or 
four hundred Tulip bulbs from your 
firm and they have been the object of 
everyone’s admiration when they bloom 
in the spring. Of course we always 
feed them during their growing season 
but have never seen more sturdy foli- 
age or larger flowers, the stems often 
reaching a length of from 214 to 3 
feet. We are more than satisfied with 
them and shall be ordering more this 
coming fall. 
Yours truly, 
J. M. WOOD.

I intended to write you last fall about 
the grand bulbs you sent me. I have 
meres bought such nice ones in all my 
ife. 
Now I want to tell you how very 
beautiful the Tulips and Jonquils are. 
The colors of the Tulips are exquisite 
and have been admired by so many 
visitors to my garden. 
I want to reorder most or all of them 
and others. 
I am so appreciative of the lovely 
flowers—they are really outstanding— 
the best $20.00 I ever spent. 
Very sincerely, 
MR 
S. H. 8S. SMITH.

I have received the Tulips and Nar- 
cissus which I ordered. The finest and 
the largest bulbs I ever got from any 
firm before. I get quite a few every 
year. If you issue a catalog in the 
spring, remember me. Thanking you 
for your promptness.

Gentlemen: 
Re: Order D. O. 6335 
These bulbs arrived September 30th 
in very good condition. 
Your stock was much superior in size 
and condition to stock ordered else- 
where, and I have recommended you to 
several people in my locality. 
Yours very truly,
