CONFIDENCE— That is What Really Matters 



Confidence is founded on j^erformance, not once only, but on constant, year-after-year performance. The choice of 

 one's seedsman is a choice in favor of dependability, and dependability must be earned. Our seetls are produced by 

 men who appreciate these things and who, by character, training and tradition, know the enormous importance of them. 



The modest success which has attended our efforts is, \\e 

 believe, due to our adherence to a program of doing a few 

 things well. Because our policy of variety simplification 

 has allowed us to seek out and develop certain strains of 

 vegetables which are of superlative merit. Stokes Seeds are 

 now a definite factor in the vegetable industry of the United 

 States and Canada. Forty-eight years as seedsmen have 

 taught us that heredity is our foundation and that vigilance 

 is our guide. 



It has been said that confidence, begets enthusiasm. 

 Reduced to figures, this enthusiasm is reflected by a 60% 

 gain in our sales this past season over any previous year, 

 is this not evidence in itself that fine things are appreciated? 

 We think so. And what is equally important, we are 

 extremely grateful for your enthusiastic support. Our 

 organization is doing its utmost to merit your continued 

 good-will. 



We Have Opened A ISiew Branch This Year 



This is our new store at Woodbury, New Jersey and is the latest unit that has been 

 added to our Company's services. Woodbury, the county seat of Gloucester County, 

 is geographically convenient to the vast vegetable growing area of southern New 

 Jersey, for it can be reached from almost any point within an hour's driving or less. 

 Our store on South Broad Street is located at the converging point of important 

 highways. You will find unlimited parking sf)ace here, and at no time is there traffic 

 congestion. This store is under able management, and our people assure everyone 

 of hospitality and the very best in vegetable seeds. Quick mails and concrete roads 

 have made near neighbors of us all. "You are always welcome at Stokes."
