Peconic, L. I., 1946:-—My Sterling Strain Fordhook Bush Limas came up per- 
fect and yielded good. I took some to the block and the buyer peid $3.90, the top 
price for them. In every handful of six pods, one pod would have 5 beans in it. That 
is what sells at the block.—G. B. ° ; 

Dunraven, N. Y., July 29, 1946:—-We have one of the oldest Summer boarding 
houses in the Catskills and my flower varden is quite a feature. The giadioli are just 
beginning to bloom. The few bulbs I got from you were gorgeous and the plants 
look promising, many sending up three and four blooming stalks. Therefore I am 
pleased.—Mrs. O. S.
