 Bulbs, and other Dingee offerings. We have always made the possession of this quality a condition of 

 all our seed-growing contracts. Those who have bought seeds of us in the past need no assurance as to 

 quality'. A trial will convince new friends that nowhere else can they get better value than our seed stock 

 will afford them. Our seeds, flower and vegetable, are fresh, pure and reliable. Our stock is absolutely 

 as good as it is possible to secure. Our prices are as low as can be made on the equality of seeds we 

 offer, with an honest margin of profit. We give liberal packets and we prepay postage on all seeds by 

 the packet, ounce, quarter-pound, pound, pint or quart, except where noted. If seeds are sent by freight 

 or express, deduct 15 cents for each quart from the mailing price.

 cents, 12 packets for 50 cents, 25 packets for $1. Fall cultural directions are givei with each packet. When 

 a packet of seed is sold for 5 cents, it almost always contains 5 cents' worth of seed. When it is sold for 3 

 cents, 4 cents or 8 cents, you are practically certain to get just as much more or less seed, as compared
