D. M. FERRY & CO’S 
Seed Annual 
1929. 
Why? 
[toes are many good seedsmen in the 
United States. These men are deserving 
of all honor for their character and skill. 
Why then should you buy Ferry’s seeds rather 
than any other? 
This is the answer: 
For seventy-three years we have produced 
Ferry’s pure-bred seeds in increasing volume. 
The volume of our national distribution has 
enabled us to maintain a large staff of specialists 
and to develop our Oakview stock seed farm 
and experimental garden to a degree of per- 
fection that is unmatched inthis country. At 
our stock seed farm we spare no expense nor 
effort to produce the choicest parent seeds. 
At the experimental garden we conduct tens 
of thousands of germination tests and the most 
extensive varietal trials in the world. We 
combine with merchandising all that properly 
goes before it. 
Make sure that your source of supply ranks 
among the best and avoid unnecessary risks. 
The planter has no second chance. Ferry’s 
pure-bred seeds are good seeds.
