Part 12

F. L. G.

Columbus, Ohio, Nov. 29, 1919.

The box of Hess Pecans arrived O. K., but they didn’t last long. I never saw such a wonderful product in my life, and as for food value—we need not worry about Beef becoming short or extinct.

H. J. W., M.D.

Goulburn, Jan. 14, 1918.

They are the first pecans that I have ever seen and I must say that they come entirely up to your description and are splendid nuts.

C. F. M.

Cleveland, O., Dec. 24, 1919.

I am in possession of the 10 pounds of the Paper Shell Pecan. Without doubt it is the finest nut that exists on earth. I am happy I have bought 5 Units of your wonderful plantation.

M. M.

New Orleans, La., Dec. 30, 1918.

I have received the box of Hess Pecans. I like them so well that I enclose payment herewith, and request you to send a box to Mrs. G. D., New Orleans.

C. F. L.

South Bend, Ind., Dec. 13, 1919.

The 10 lb. Box of Pecans you sent me came to hand and are good, fresh, and very fine. I enclose you my check for $25 for two more 10 lb. boxes.

A. J.

San Jose, Cal., May 3, 1919.

I received the box of Paper Shell Pecans, and enjoyed them immensely; would say they are by all odds the best I have ever eaten. I have also eaten the Creole Pralines of New Orleans, and the nuts used in that confection, although good, do not compare.

W. S. M., Jr.

Wharton, Tex., Dec. 4, 1919.

I am in receipt of the 10 lb. package of Hess Paper Shell Pecans, and I wish to state that they are the very finest and best flavored that I have ever tasted. You have produced a wonderful nut and it is all that you claim.

R. A. G.

Quanah, Texas.

“Finest pecan I ever ate.”

The Highest Priced Pecans—Yet Demand far Exceeds Supply

A high official of the city of New York wrote: “Such pecans never were seen before in our neighborhood. They are all you advertised them to be. I sent a box on to my daughter in Boston.”

From another, whose husband is at the head of a publication which enjoys national prestige as an exponent of the finest nuts and other foods by mail order, we received the following letter, along with the second order: “Enclosed find check for which send package of your Hess Pecans. Kindly ship these at once as we wish them for Thanksgiving.”
