Small Orders™ We 

 Like Them. 



Thousands of seed planters think 

 that a 10 to 50 cent seed order is too 

 small to send. It's not. We are 

 g"lad to have your order, no matter 

 how small, and the better results in 

 your garden make it worth while for 

 you to send to us. Rememher, there 

 is no order small or larg-e that is not 

 welcome at STECKZiXiB'S.

 and the month of April dry, the latter 

 will succeed well.

 Seeds mentioned for January can be 

 sown this month, as well as Bermuda 

 Grass. Sorghum, Milo Maize and Kaffir

 should be sown for stock food. Sweet 

 Potatoes can be put in a bed for sprout- 

 ing, so as to have early slips.
