^'THE FINEST IN EUROPE 



OR ANERICA/'says Importer 



Mr. John Gerard, importer of high- 

 grade seeds, New Britain, Conn., in 

 one of his last letters to us, says : 



"The seeds I received from you have 

 proven to be the finest strains of asters 

 I ever bought, either in Europe or in 

 America. My trade is with private 

 gardeners, who demand the highest 

 grade of seeds. I have received many 

 letters of praise from the estates and 

 gardeners." 



We also have many such letters from 

 florists in various sections of the 

 United States.
