VEGETABLE SEEDS 



COLLECTION 



FOR RETAILING. 



For the convenience of those who wish to purchase and put our seeds on sale 

 in their stores and do not know exactly what to select, we have made up the following 

 "Box collections." The varieties contained in them are such as our experience 

 has shown to be the most popular and salable, though, of course, you are at per- 

 fect liberty to make your own selections from our Retail Catalogue 

 for the current year, or from the lithographed packets listed on 

 page 35. 



Our New Counter Boxes we think are the finest ever sent out and as the differ- 

 ent varieties of seeds are fully displayed, your customer can see exactly what is wanted 

 without disturbing the entire contents of the case, consequently the seeds sell 

 themselves. 



These " Vegetable Seed Counter Boxes " we do not sell, but we loot one 

 to every dealer ordering our vegetable seeds in lithographed packets to the amount of not 

 less than $6.00, net, annually/ where collections requiting two of these counter boxes 

 are ordered, such as collections "C" and "D," we will loan the required two cases. 

 We make no charge for packing or shipping, but the freight or express charges must be 

 paid by customers.
