SCH ELL'S Quality Seeds 
They Grow Better : They Yield Better 
They Are Absolutely the Best 
These twelve illustrations are 
exact reproductions of photographs 
of the vegetables grown by my 
customers from seeds they pur- 
chased of me. Perfect, highest- 
quality vegetables: Is not this con- 
vincing proof that they do grow 
belter? Those who are planting 
them know it. If you have been 
securing your seeds elsewhere and 
have not had the results you 
wished for — if you want better 
crops, bigger crops — if you want 
seeds that will germinate more 
strongly, grow better, yield better, 
then plant this year 
Schell's Quality Seeds

If you are not highly pleased 
with the results of the seeds I send

I will gladly refund your money. 
My prices are no higher than those 
of other reliable houses, but my 
quality is unsurpassed — it is abso- 
lutely the best. It will pay you well

producing proposition, not an ex- 
perimental station. You cannot 
afford to use your valuable time 
and soil "trying out" doubtful 
varieties. I never offer any new 
variety unless it has proven abso- 
lutely, by comparative tests, that 
it is far superior and more profit- 
able than others. So, wlien order- 
ing new varieties which I recom- 
mend, you can do .so with full con- 
fiilence that they are exactly as 
described and your crops will be 
like them, for Ihcy are bred for 
quality and bred to yield. Have the 
best; send your order to me. 
Here is what I mean when I say 
They Grow Better. I have just re- 
reived this letter, Dec. 4, 1916, as
