 direct to us. WE WILL, on purchases of vegetable seeds from this list to the value of $10.00 

 and upwards, DELIVER FREE (by freight or express at our option , to any railroad station 

 in the United States, PROVIDED that at least half of the order is composed of small seeds, 

 that is, any vegetable seeds in the List other than Peas, Beans, Corn, Onion Sets and Po- 

 tatoes. If your own order does not amount to SIO.OO, you can avail yourself of this offer 

 by combining your order with one or more of your neighbors.

 on Peas, Beans and Corn, 10c. per quart. Packets, ounces and quarter pounds are mailed

ORDER EARLY 



or we may be " sold out." 

 PEDIGREE SEED CROPS all 

 over the world are so short 

 that in m»ny items the supply 

 amounts almost to a famine 



f 



CHE Seed crops of 1911 are the shortest on record. Peas, are 

 again a very short crop, and good stocks of Beet, Cabbage, 

 Carrot, Celery and Parsnip were never so scarce. Radish, 

 Spinach, Cucumber, Turnip and other important crops 

 are also short. This has almost brought about a famine in 

 these important articles. Never in the history of our firm, 

 (extending back to 1847^, has there been such a wide-spread 

 shortage both here and in Europe. Prices, though high, are 

 as low as is consistent with good quality. Early orders are 

 solicited to avoid disappointment.
