NEW SEEDS 



FREE 

 FOR TRIAL. 



For some years past we have, each season, distributed free, for trial among our customers' 

 packages of New and Improved Varieties, previous to their introduction. Some of our most 

 valuable Novelties have been first sent out in this way, by which means they were tried in all 

 sections of the country, thus enabling us, when the reports are entirely satisfactory, to offer them 

 the next season with greater confidence. We shall follow the same plan in 1891, and have again 

 put up a number of most distinct novelties, which have never been oftered for sale, and will not 

 under any circumstances be sold this season ; and we shall be glad to add one or more packages free of charge to customers 

 whose ordei-s exceed $1.00, and indicate an interest in new varieties. All who deal with us will be treated liberally. 



We shall also be glad to receive samples for trial from customers who have new or superior varieties unknown to the 

 genera! jiublie.
