THE HARVEST 



Our devotion to our job is planted deep in its creative possibilities. Always we are working for 

 next year's harvest, or the year after. There is, of course, beauty in our Vanguard or Marglobe 

 fields. There is a satisfaction in work well done, — in exacting detail accomplished. We even 

 admit to a feeling of assurance when our warehouse is filled with the harvest. But the real 

 joy of our job is in the knowledge that here under our roof-tree we hold something of life. 

 Here for the asking, you may have "fields green as a prophet's banner," — brought to you 

 from under Italian skies. Here in a dusty cotton bag is a latent force that will fill 

 you a train load of tomatoes from the Rio Grande, or will ballast a coaster from 

 the Islands. There is great inherent strength even in a pile of tomato seed. — f. c. s.
