C ONDON BROS, SEEDSMEN 
Superior Service and Insurance for 
Customers at a Very Low Cost 
THE photographs on the opposite pages convey to you more information as to the care 
and protection we place around the seeds you buy of us than all we might say in a 
dozen pages. In the first picture you see an actual photograph of our Mammoth Seed 
Tester, where every variety of seed we sell is tested for germination, and in the photograph 
below you see a portion of our Rock River Valley Seed Farm, where we conduct one of the 
most complete Trial Grounds in America. 
A portion of each sample drawn for germination purposes is sent to the farm every 
spring; all numbered consecutively on our register books, with corresponding number on the 
marker heading each row, and from these extensive trials we know positively how good 
and true they are. Old Mother Earth won't lie, and if she shows up some lot of seed not 
right, believe me, that goes for Chicken Feed. We make hundreds of comparative tests of 
new varieties offered by other seedsmen and where they prove good and worthy we list them 
in our general catalog under their full name. 
In addition to this, our facilities and equipment both in experienced help and machinery 
enables us to handle your orders accurately and promptly ; shipments going out within twenty- 
four hours after being received, even in the busy months of February and March, so in plac- 
ing your order in our care you get The Best Seed Mother Earth Affords, and you get it 
Accurately and Promptly filled, and those things are worth many dollars to you, for a delay 
of ten days, or two weeks, in filling your order (the way it is done in some establishments), 
may cost you hundreds of dollars at harvest, for you never can catch up with time that is lost. 
The cost of operating these trial grounds, making; germination test of every lot of seed 
we sell, and the amount of wealth we have tied up in equipment to handle your order promptly, 
and accurately, cost a lot of money every year, but with the enormous amount of business 
we handle yearly, and the fact we Grow Personally on our Own Farms, and Rented Ones most 
of the seeds we sell, enables us to supply you the Very Highest Quality of Seeds and get them 
to you promptly at lower prices than same quality can be purchased from any other place on 
earth. ^ 
Old customers know our motto, and new friends remember. 
"YOUR MONEY'S WORTH AND THEN SOME OR YOUR MONEY BACK." 
Send your orders early, please, and get your neighbor to send his also. We'd do as much 
for you. Many thanks. Yours very sincerely,
