THE PROOF OF THE PUDDING IS IN THE EATING.

This applies to Floral matters as well as to matters culinary.

Ballinger, Texas, Nov. 29.

The GOOD & REESE CO., Springfield. O. Gentlemen: The 20 ever

blooming roses you sent me for $1. arrived yesterday in the

most splendid condition, and allow me to say that I was

absolutely surprised at the size of the stalks and the amount,

length and thriftiness of the roots. I have wondered many times

how you could afford to send out such roses for such a small

price. Every home in the land should have their yard full of

ever blooming roses at this price.

Yours,

(Judge) C. H. WILLINGHAM.

Pittsburgh, Pa., Sept. 20, 1893.

The GOOD & REESE CO., Springfield, O. Gentlemen: I wish to

thank you for the excellent assortment of roses contained in

your Rainbow Collection. On May 3, I planted them, 19 of them

lived. About six of them bloomed in June, since which all have

bloomed either monthly or perpetual, true to their color. On

Sept. 1, I counted 106 buds and blooms on the 19 roses. They

were much admired by my friends and neighbors, and allow me to

thank you for furnishing this source of pleasure so cheaply.

Very respectfully,
