Gentlemen: 
What kind of a winter have you had? 
The winter here has been really mild. 
I have ten of your Roses growing in my 
garden, One has been growing five years and 
has stood our temperatures as low as fifty 
three below zero, and all the rest have 
withstood forty five degrees below zero 
without damage. 
That report came to us from North 
Dakota. , 
We get letters as pleasing, by the 
hundreds, many from the South. 
Have you any customers who would 
like to grow rose blooms as large and 
beautiful as any, that can grow on such 
bushes, larger each year? Be 
ce 
If you have, send in your list at onde 
while most of the varieties are still 
available. 
Sincerely, 
Walter D. Brownell
