The Home Garden 



true to what is claimed for it. Of course there 

 are many new firms which no doubt deal quite 

 as honorably, but we do not know this, there- 

 fore we keep on patronizing the old one. It is 

 safe to patronize any of the long-established 

 seed houses, because the fact of their long con- 

 tinuance in the business argues that they give 

 entire satisfaction to their customers. Their 

 seeds may cost more than those offered by 

 new firms who are bidding for patronage, but 

 it pays to put a little more money into them 

 and be sure of what you are getting. You 

 cannot only depend on getting good quality, 

 but you will be sure to get the varieties you 

 order. Some firms are so unscrupulous in 

 their efforts to gain trade that they will send 

 you something labelled to fit your order, but 

 in many instances it proves untrue to name, 

 and you are very much disappointed thereby. 

 Investigate before ordering from a new firm, for 

 much of the satisfaction of having a garden 

 grows out of a selection of the best varieties. 

 You cannot afford to cultivate inferior sorts. 



Special directions will be given under the 

 description of each vegetable adapted to the 

 amateur's garden.
