FARM SEEDS 
I know the importance of sowing good, clean seed, with vitality — seed that will grow; and no farmer 
who thinks anything of his farm, or who wants good, clean, profitable crops, will consider sowing any but the 
very highest quality seeds. There are many different grades of Clover, Timothy, Alfalfa, Blue Grass, etc. The 
highest grade is, of course, the highest price. Many dealers do not handle this highest-grade seed, claiming 
their customers won't pay the price; they sell a cheaper grade, yet if you ask them, "Is this the best seed?" they 
reply, "Yes, the very best." Get a sample of the seed you want from me; also a sample from the dealer offering 
you his "best," but at a lower price — compare them, side by side, or send them to the Department of Agriculture, 
Washington, D. C, to be tested. That will prove the claim that my seed is superior. I know because I prove it 
before I offer it. 
I sell only one grade of seeds, that is, absolutely the best. Not only called so by name, but the best in 
reality. I sell them on a very close margin, as low as it is possible for any dealer to sell them.

David Smith said: "I used your Wizard Brand Sheep Manure on 
my Oats and had the best crop I ever grew." (See page 39 for prices 
of Sheep Manure.) 
STORM KING OATS. A side Oats that has been grown successfully 
for some years. It derives its name — Storm King — from the strength 
of the straw, which often measures from 4^^ to sK feet in height. It

very long, containing an unusually large number of grains, its aver- 
age yield running 70 bushels. The seed I offer is grown in the North
