Suggestion 
vwasestion Voung Folks | 
Thousands of the sons and daughters of my customers will look 
over this seed book this winter. Why not make up a flower seed 
club among your friends? You have no idea, with one or two 
packets here and one or two packets there, how quickly it amounts 
to a considerable order. 
1,000 packets of flower seeds at 5 cents each, equal $50.00 
1,000 packets of flower seeds at 10 cents each, equal $100.00 
Total amounts to $150.00 for which you need only remit $100.00 (as 
stated elsewhere in this book, $1.00 buys $1.50 worth of seeds in 
packets) so you will not only make considerable money in selling 
these packets, three or four or more to a family in your neighbor- 
hood, but you will also absolutely secure some of that $1,000 to be 
awarded July 1, 1910, for club orders. 
A good opportunity for schools to make some extra money.
