Jo Our Friends and Customers. 
In presenting our Seventh Annual Catalogue of Seeds we wish to express 
first, our appreciation of the many valued orders and kind expressions which we 
have received from our customers in the different sections of the country, this 
has greatly aided us in our continued progress. 
The seeds offered here are grown from pedigree stocks. Each variety has 
been grown in just the part of the earth where climate, soil and season unite to 
produce the most perfect of its kind. These seeds have been selected by experts 
to meet the requirements of 
Market Gardeners and Jruckers 
whose trade we have during our 17 years of business carefully served. 
We are endeavoring to make this book as complete as possible incorpor- 
ating in it many valuable suggestions for improvements of crops, as well as 
improved methods of culture, which will be seen in small type at the heading of 
each vegetable family. 
We have carefully avoided exaggerated claims of merit, omitting the end- 
less number which are out of date, we avoid offering the same varietiés under 
from one to four different names, and the reader can be assured that every variety 
listed has proved with us fully equal to our description of it. 
Our Prices Are Low. 
The past season has been a most disastrous one for the production of some 
seed crops. Most vine seeds, such as Cucumber, Cantaloupe, Squash, and similar 
varieties, have proven quite a shortage, consequently prices on these items are 
again high. Fortunately we had very large contracts placed, and we think that 
our stocks will be ample to supply reasonable demands. For this reason we are 
enabled to offer very moderate prices, and believe a comparison of ours with 
prices from any other reliable seed house will be favorable to us. 
We test all our Seeds before sending out; and should they fail when 
properly tested by the customer, we will replace the same amount or give value 
in others, but cannot give any warranty, express or implied, as to crops, etc. If the 
purchaser does not accept the goods on these conditions they must be returned 
at once, and the amount that has been paid for same will be refunded. 
All orders have our personal attention. 
Very respectfully, 
J. Manns & Co.
