Ferry-Morse Seed Co. have devoted all their skill, experience, and 

 facilities toward but one objective . . . 



BETTER Vegetable and Flower Seeds 



UEKE ARE A FEW EXAMPLES: 



Ferry-Morse maintain trial grounds in Cali- 

 fornia, Idaho, and Michigan to determine ac- 

 curately the quality of the seeds they offer to 

 the public. Many thousand trials are made 

 annually. 



Carrot trial at Oakview, Michigan. Roots are being 

 selected, weighed, and measured for uniformity of size, 

 shape, interior color, and other characteristics 



Ferry's Seeds are produced in selected areas in the United 

 States where each kind and variety will mature to best 

 advantage and can be harvested under the best conditions.

In addition to outdoor and greenhouse trials 

 to determine quality, thorough testing is car- 

 ried on continuously in indoor laboratories to 

 make as sure as possible that FERRY'S 

 SEEDS will germinate well. From 50,000 to 

 100,000 tests are made every year.
