Hybrid Elm Gives Quick Shade 
“Dear Sirs: We ordered a Hybrid Elm 
from you four years ago last fall. We have 
watched it grow almost daily. We wanted 
quick shade and we truly have it. We won’t 
need our awnings this summer. It is really 
amazing how rapidly it has grown and such 
beautiful leaves! In short—we love this 
tree.”—Mrs. W. L. Durham, Vliets, Kansas. 


Like Bush Cherry 
“Dear Mrs. Field: Here is a picture of 
our little grandson, Donald Harmel, age ~- 
3, standing beside our Bush Cherry last 
spring. It is the free gift you sent us with 
our.apple tree order, and was just cov- 
ered with white flowers. The cherries are 
wonderful for eating fresh, pies and jel- 
lies. We like your seeds and nursery very 
much and will continue buying every year 
from you.’’—Mr. and Mrs. Otto Harmel, 
Rt. 4, Tomah, Wisc. 
High Yielding Sweet Corn 
“Dear Field’s: Just a note to tell you that 
from three rows of Hybrid Stowell’s Ever- 
green Sweet Corn, I canned 44 pints. Also 
put 30 perfect ears in the locker and stili 
had corn to eat from the ears not quite 
ready. The rows were 53 ft. long. Dve been 
bragging ever since.”—Mrs. Tom Woodward, 
Waverly, Missouri. 

Peaches in Two Years! 
“Henry Field Seed & Nursery Co.: En- 
closed is a picture of my wife, Ellen, be- 
side one of your peach trees, which I pur- 
chased in 1947. It produced a bushel of 
peaches during 1949.’’-—Sherman F. 
Fetzer, 408 Pershing Ave., Wheaton, I11.
