BROWNELL ROSE RESEARCH GARDENS 
LITTLE COMPTON, RHODE ISLAND 
January 10, 1948 
Barnes & Huber's Nursery of Cin- 
Cinnati, Ohio is not the largest distributor of 
Roses in the country nor is it the smallest, 
but a typical average nursery of the highest 
standing, whose management seeking to keep up 
to date, wishes to help others so to do. 
That is why they have authorized 
us to quote from their letter notifying us of 
the arrival of their Fall order. 
"The Roses you sent us arrived 
in perfect condition and we are pleased with 
the plants." 
Having previously ordered, and made 
test, they report: 
"Last year's plants were planted 
in the Fall in @ rather wet place, given abso- 
lutely no protection. Water frequently stood 
around them during the Winter, and late into 
the Spring. Some heaved out of the ground 
badly, one completely out, and that is the only 
one we lost, after enduring temperatures as low 
as ten below zero." 
"You are right; they are hardy." 
We believe customer satisfaction 
is worth while and so do you. 
Sincerely, 
Walter D. Brownell
