Dear Sir I was at Mr Holmes's of Rock for a short time since and saw some Pie Plant called Sarge. New. Hybrid which he told me he had of you..
Can you spare me a quantity next spring? and at what price per 100.
From the long experience and observation you have had in the Fruit business in this country; I wish to ask a simple question If you were going to sett an Orchard of 500 trees expressly for market purposes taking into consideration, hardiness, bearing qualities &c. not exceeding 10 varieties, What would you sett.
How will the Willow Twig of the West, compare with the Newtown Pippin of NY. for exportation?
Yours Respectfully P.B. Spaulding
