*- /"True Blue" 



Seeds 



enjoy unrivaled confidence. Sixty years of earnest efforts 

 are back of the things we sell and "True Blue" Seeds are now 

 a recognized standard— the best money can buy. We do more 

 business now in one week than we did during the first ten years 

 after we started. The reason? The seeds, bulbs and plants we 

 sold grew, gave satisfactory results, made us many friends. 

 This year we are celebrating our Sixtieth Anniversary and we invite 

 all discriminating planters to give "True Blue" Seeds a trial. You need 

 them for perfect results in your garden, and we are confident that the service 

 we give and the "true blue" quality of our seeds will make you our steady customer, 



Livingston' s"True Blue" Specialties 



We aim to grow the best that nature and soil will produce. One of our most 

 successful hybrids is a green-fleshed melon. It took seven years of patient effort 

 and selection to produce it but the result was 



The Ohio Sugar Musk Melon 



which has justly been termed "the sweetest melon that grows." Of beautiful 

 appearance (see above), of good size, green-fleshed, delightfully aromatic and 

 deliciously flavored, it stands in a class by itself. People have written us that 

 they had several acres of other good melons together with "Ohio Sugar" and 

 that the "other good melons" 'were sent to market while the "Ohio Sugar" 

 melons were eaten at home. Price (under our "true blue" seal), 15 cents per 

 packet, 2 packets for 25 cents. 



Ohio Grown Onion Seeds 



are absolutely unsurpassed. The bulbs produced from our seeds excel in 

 uniform shape, brilliant color of skin and firm, solid flesh of mild, pleas- 

 ing flavor. We grow many acres on our own farms (see picture of 

 field below), a good enough reason why it will pay you to buy your 

 seeds from us.
