PEXER HENDERSON & CO., NEW YORK^ 



It is truly said that: "Seed is the beginning of all wealth." 

 Prosperity and "bumper crops" are inseparable for the boun 

 teous yield from the seed is the base of our national wealth. We 

 pride ourselves on being instrumental in bringing about this prosperity to 

 our customers by supplying the best seed which years of specialized effort 

 ' only could produce. This is attested in the thousands of testimonials we 

 receive annually from pleased customers, only a fraction of which appear in this 

 catalogue. Progress is linked with prosperity and this year we desire to make an- 

 nouncement of the improvements of our stores to our customers whom we do not have 

 the pleasure of welcoming personally, for there are hundreds of thousands of them. 

 '408 ^ "'" , Wo have put in a new front, enlarged our show windows, added to our selling space on 



^^m ^^^^ H ^ * the ground floor by moving our offices upstairs. We show a few views in this catalogue 



JJ ^^r °f these improvements. Visitors, who have seen every large seed store in the world, 



^^^^ unite in saying that ours is now the finest. All this is for the benefit of our customers 



as it enables us to attend to their wants in a better and more prompt manner than before. It enables us, 

 too, to give exhibitions of flowers and vegetables on a larger scale than ever, so that we conduct educational 

 horticultural exhibitions to which all are welcome. These embrace in their season Peonies, Iris, Roses, Herbaceous plants, Gladioli, 

 Water Lilies, Sweet Peas, Asters, Cannas, Dahlias, Phloxes, Chrysanthemums, Garden Annuals and the products of the vegetable garden 

 and farm so that visitors have the opportunity to compare and select. 



We are located directly opposite the Cortlandt Street entrance and exit of the Hudson-Manhattan tunnel system, two blocks from the 

 Fulton Street station of the subway; stations of the Ninth and Sixth Avenue elevated railroads on either side of us; so that we are in the 

 center of the real heart of New York. Our facilities are unequaled, our stocks up to the Henderson Standard of previous years. On 

 these grounds we solicit the continued patronage of our old customers and invite new ones in full confidence that we can please you.
