In these days of crisis, with shortage of staff, we are all doing our utmost to 
“carry on” and to give your orders the same prompt attention as hitherto but 
ask your indulgence for any delays or lapses which may occur in shipping your 
orders or in answering your inquiries. 
Our cultural directions have been made as explicit as possible, but in cases 
of doubt your local library can usually offer an excellent book of reference, and 
many universities make a special study of plant culture and are very glad to 
give you their findings. 
We are quite confident that your co-operation in meeting the existing con- 
ditions will be extended to us. 
We would here like to express our sincere thanks to our many customers 
who have so kindly written us letters of appreciation. We would like to 
acknowledge each one personally but feel that you will understand that this is 
not possible. 
We deeply appreciate your patronage and will do all possible to warrant a 
continuance of this. 7
