Bok^iANo; 



FOR f,IQHTY=FOUR YEARS WE HAVE WON CONFIDENCE. 



NOT by chance, not by luck, but by honest, untiring- efforts. Our undivided time and attention Is 

 given to growing the choicest and most reliable Seeds. We carefully select all the highest grade 

 stocks, and eliminate those which our test gardens prove would be unprofitable for the trucker 

 or gardener to grow. We never recommend any article unless we are certain, by actual test, it 

 possesses merits superior to anything the trucker already has. We watch for improvement in char 

 acter, shape, form, color, attractiveness and best selling qualities. These improvements we quickly 

 note and encourage. Remember, as you read through this Catalogue, what we say about eacn 

 article has been gathered from our actual experience, together with the experience of the most 

 up-to-date and successful practical market gardeners and truckers in every part of the world.
