DELICIOUSLY SWEET 

 EARLY BEARING AND 

 BEST FOR FANCY TRADE 



HERE IS CORN 



Gregory's Improved Original Crosby Corn has never been equalled for uniform 

 satisfaction among a critical trade. It has large ears with pearly white ker- 

 nels, ripens early. It is the favorite at Newport, Bar Harbor and other 

 fashionable resorts and highly profitable for gardeners. As all seed is grown 

 under critical care on our own farms, the supply is limited. Per peck, $2.50; 

 quart, 52 cents postpaid; package 10 cents. 



You can make your planting a success by using tested seed. Every 

 year we make over 2000 tests of the vitality of our seed and stock not coming 

 up to our standard is thrown away. We take no chance of its reaching our 

 customers. These precautions enable us to sell 



Gregory's Honest Seeds 



under warrants covering purity, freshness and true to kind, and we see to it that you get 

 the seed you order. DorYt run risk of failure in your garden by buying seed from local 

 stores or elsewhere, where there is no one to back up quality. Gardeners whether for profit 

 or recreation should get a copy of our new 1911 Illustrated Catalogue 

 JftV"^^. It is larger, more helpful and an invaluable guide to all who plant.
