INTRODUCTION. 



To Our Friends and Customers: 



For the thirteenth time we make our bow to the public. 



There have been many changes and improvements in all lines of 

 trade and commerce, and more especially that of Agriculture since we put 

 forth our first Garden Annual, but the HOUSE OF STECKLER has kept 

 up with march of progress and stands to-day at the head, as the 



''Oldest, Newest and Largest Seed House in the South." 



Our Catalogue needs no introduction, except to the stranger into 

 whose hands it may fall; the information to be found within its pages has 

 been of great help to our patrons and gratification to us. 



It is needless for us to impress upon our regular customers the 

 necessity of planting good seeds, true to name and quality, but for the benefit 

 of those who do not know, we repeat our slogan : 



Steckler^s Seeds are Best* 

 Best Seeds Always Grow* 



Remember: The Steckler Building is headquarters for patrons and 

 strangers when visiting our city and you will be welcomed. 



Thanking all who have contributed in any way to our past success, 

 we are, 



Very respectfully, 



J. STECKLER SEED CO., Ltd.
