RECEXTLY we received a letter in which the writer told how 

 he had used Thorburn's Seeds for over twenty-five vears; and 

 that his father had used them before him. 



Every now and then we receive letters of this nature and 

 from them we Jearn that our efforts to maintain — and even 

 to increase — the high standard set by a century's reputation 

 is appreciated.

 or the more expensive varieties, share equally the same careful 

 painstaking methods of testing and sorting that have made the best 

 seeds the safest. 



A copy of our new 1914 catalog — replete with instruc- 

 tions and useful data — will be mailed you if you request it.
