Your Seedsman's Reputation 



and the 



Quality It Ensures 



A L 



{LL of the seeds that you 

 purchase are bought en- 

 tirely upon the reputation of 

 the seller. You cannot judge 

 their quality yourself as you do 

 with so many of the other com- 

 modities you buy. Not even 

 the most thoroughly trained seedsman or 

 horticulturist can give a satisfactory opinion 

 upon their quality without exhaustive tests. 



Thus the wise and experienced buyer investi- 

 gates first the reputation of his seedsman. It 

 is his best, in fact, his only assurance. 



The business of Peter Henderson & Company 

 was established in 1847 and has been built to 

 its present proportions by the most careful 

 attention to quality. The third generation of 

 Hendersons are in charge to-day and there is 

 something more than just a plain business 



relationship existing between themselves, their 

 employees and their customers. 



When you buy Henderson's seeds you buy 76 

 years of experience; you buy the prestige and 

 reputation of years of successful seed raising 

 and selling; you buy seeds that have behind 

 them the sentiment brought out by many years 

 of careful conscientious attention to our cus- 

 tomers and their wants. 



The very smallest part of your garden's cost 

 is represented by the seeds, but they are by far 

 the most important item. — Henderson's Seeds 

 are Tested Seeds. 



"Everything for the Garden" is the title of 

 our annual catalogue. It is really a book of 

 176 pages, replete with garden information, 16 

 color plates, and over a thousand half tones, 

 direct from photographs, showing actual results 

 without exaggeration.
