ITH BECKERT'S CATALOGUE for 1922, we send you our heartiest 

 wishes for a year filled with prosperity and happiness. We who earn 

 our living by gathering and distributing the seeds that produce crops 

 to supply your table and flowers to gladden your home, like to feel we 

 have served to help along that happiness and prosperity. But we know 

 this service has not been rightfully performed unless we have spared no pains in 

 the selection and testing and proving of every lot of seeds that goes out to our 

 patrons bearing the name of Beckert. 



In our forty-five years of endeavor along this one line, we have ever held to the principle that money 

 saved by neglecting any one of the safeguards that protect you when you buy Beckert's Seeds, is lost 

 ten times over in the resulting crop. Too often have we heard the story, "I thought I would try 'so-and- 

 so's' seeds this year because they seemed to be cheaper but — never again!" Each year sees a 

 steady growth in the Beckert business because each year a greater number of gardeners have learned 

 that "You can rely on Beckert's Seeds." 



So Beckert's Catalogue for 1922 goes to a larger number of friends and customers than ever before. 

 Because it represents honest, reliable seeds, we have tried to make it an honest, reliable catalogue. 

 There is no place in it for misleading descriptions or "novelties" of doubtful value. We trust you will 

 find it worth reading from cover to cover, and we hope you will grant us the privilege of helping to 

 make your garden for 1922 a source of health and pleasure and abundant crops. 



Yours to command, 



January 1, 1922. Beckert's Seed Store
