Tlie attontion ol" marlcot gavdenors, and others dosirinf;; to 

 purchase Seeds, is called to tlie kact that the Calihagc and 

 other Seeds, offered by D. LANDRETH Si SONS to their cus- 

 tomers are grown and saved entirely by themselves, upon their 

 own seed farms, from their own seed stock, the result of many 

 years of careful and intelligent selection, and are not the re- 

 sult of chance and careless purchases from jiarties who loiow 

 nothing of the business of raising seeds. Seed raising requires 

 years of close observation, careful attention to the one subject, 

 and cannot be acquired in a short time by those whose attention has been engrossed with other pursuits. 



The Seed Growing Establishment of D. LANDRETH Sc SONS (now comprising 1,574 acres), first 

 founded in 1784, and passing to three generations, has been conducted with the view of producing seeds of 

 the very best and purest quality. We are, therefore justified in assuring our customers that the Seeds 



offered by us lip.ve no superior in this or any other country. 



The public generally are invited to call and examine our stock of Seeds, Implements, and Tools, 



all of the first quality. No second quality goods for sale. Catalogues free. Prices low.
