h Sixteen Years ^ 



Ll889 :: 1905 J 



For sixteen years we have been supplying the Market Gar- 

 deners and Farmers with Choice Garden and Field Seeds. 



Our large business is not the growth of chance, but by hard 

 and honest labor we have built up a business which has extended 

 all over this country. Honest Seeds at Low Prices has been 

 our Motto. The heads of our firm have had a thorough education 

 in the seed business, and the catalogue which we now present to you is the product of our best efforts. Our 

 endeavors have always been to present and describe the best goods true to nature as words can describe, riot to 

 overdraw descriptions to mislead and deceive customers. We intend that our customers" interests and ours shall 

 always be the same. We do not make a big flourish in an elaborate catalogue and introduce a quantity of worth- 

 less novelties at high prices to make our trade pay the cost.

GUARANTEE.— Complaints made that seeds are not good should quite as often be attributed to other 

 causes as to the quality of the seeds. There are hundreds of contingencies continually arising to prevent the best 

 seeds always giving satisfaction, such as sowing too deep, too shallow, in too wet or too dry soil ; insects of all 

 descriptions destroying the plants as soon as or before they appear ; wet weather, cold weather, frosts, chemical 

 changes in the seeds induced by temperature, etc. For the above reasons it is impracticable to guarantee seeds 

 under all circumstances. 



We give no warranty, express or implied, as to description, quality, productiveness, or any other matter of 

 any seeds, bulbs, or plants we send out, and we will not be in any way responsible for the crop. If the purchaser 

 does not accept the goods on these terms, they are at once to be returned and the money that has been paid for 

 same will be refunded.
