Dreer Quality 



VEGETABLE SEEDS 



Once the gardener has grown his own vege- 

 tables he is bound not only to continue but to in- 

 crease the area to provide a supply for the entire 

 year. The difference between home-gjown vege- 

 tables and those purchased in the market is cer- 

 tainly striking. Freshly gathered Peas, Beans, 

 and Sweet Corn have a flavor and tenderness that 

 are entirely lacking in market products. Their 

 sugar content undergoes a rapid chemical change 

 once the edible portion is removed from the grow- 

 ing plant. Even the flavor of root crops such as 

 Beets, Carrots, Turnips, Radishes, etc., deterio- 

 rates so rapidly that there is no comparison 

 between the freshly harvested ones and those 

 available even at the roadside stands of the 

 grower. Half an hour's delay between gathering 

 and cooking makes a tremendous difference in the 

 flavor and sweetness of many kinds. To enjoy 

 vegetables at their best one simply must g^ow 

 his own. 



Carefully Selected Strains 

 of the Finest Vegetables 



Developments in vegetables have been as sen- 

 sational as those in flowers. Specialists all over 

 the world are continuously at work cross-breed- 

 ing and selecting strains that represent the great- 

 est improvements. Among the truly outstanding 

 are the Yellows-Resistant varieties of Cabbage, 

 Disease-Resistant Sweet Corn, and Wilt-Resist- 

 ant Watermelon. Strains of improved quality, 

 greater productiveness, and better appearance 

 yearly are widening the range of selection. These 

 new varieties are added to our catalog after care- 

 ful tests are made in our vegetable testing plots 

 so that we may be sure of their desirability and 

 superiority. As older varieties are superseded by 

 better ones they are gradually dropped from our 

 list so that you may depend upon the varieties 

 we offer representing the best.
