Dear Monrovia Nursery Customer, ite 
ea at oleSil aT \griculture 
Recent heavy and steady rains in Southern California have received considerable 
news coverage all over the United States. These rains hit hard in the Azusa- 
Glendora areas and have caused extensive flooding and mudslides in the area. Yes, 
we have had considerable property damage, but a surprisingly minor loss of plants. 
These mishaps are being corrected as we continue our normal daily operations. 
Canning operations continue, pruning and weeding continue, and propagation con- 
tinues in full swing (right through the rains), Most important, our well washed 
stock is being selected to fill orders...and our shipping department has had no let 
up in making deliveries. A very small percentage, perhaps 5% of our stock, has 
been destroyed causing no hardship whatever in filling your orders. Only a limited 
number of varieties have been damaged, 
As you can see we are continuing normal operations to insure you delivery of 
Distinctively Better plants...and plenty of them! If you wish to inquire about the 
availability of any specific varieties, we welcome your call. 
Wishing you a successful spring season, 
MONROVIA NURSERY COMPANY

Martin W. Usrey 
Vice-President and Generél Manager

liable for any sum greater than that paid for such plants as may prove untrue. If the purchaser docs not accept the goods on these terms, they are to be returned at once.
