"HOW MUCH REUEF WILL MY 
UTILE BACK YARD GARDEN BE?" 
JUST THINK — You and twenty-million more heads 
of families in small back yard Vegetable Gardens will 
raise on an average $50.00 worth of vegetables each, or a 
Grand Total of One Billion Dollars in Food. Naturally, with a 
fine large garden of Fresh, Crisp Vegetables, you won't eat as much 
of the regular farm crops, such as Wheat, Oats, Meats, etc., there- 
fore you are actually allowing your European neighbor as much of 
these cereals as you raise in Vegetables in your own garden. It's 
a case of helping yourself and the other fellow at the same time and 
surely there is pleasure, profit and happiness for any man in such 
work. 
irOU CAN'T ALL CARRY A RIFLE AND 
GET BEHIND THE TRENCHES, BUT 
YOU CAN GET BEHIND A HOE AND 
DO FULLY AS MUCH 
This, our 1918 Catalog, contains all that is good in Seeds, Plants 
and Berries for the Professional Gardener, Extensive Farmer and 
Back Yard Planter, and the prices are as low as good seeds can be 
grown, and surely in a critical time like this you can't afford to 
chance seed of unknown quality, for 50c saved now on your seed 
bill might mean a hundred dollars loss to you at harvest. Our seeds are as Good 
As Can Be Produced From Mother Earth. They are carefully tested and 
guaranteed to please. 
WILL YOU DO YOUR SHARE? 
If so, send your orders in early and ask for a copy o^' our "Common Sense 
Culture Book and Canning Guide"— free on $L50 orders— tells how and 
when to plant and how to Can All Your Surplus Vegetables. 
We aim to help you help your neighbor, get plenty of good things to eat, and to 
make this old world a Better Place to Live In. If you and I do this 'little bit' I'm 
sure we'll all be happier and 
Yours very sincerely, ^^^^(T^/^S^^^ J(^6^^
