TO OUR FRIENDS AND CUSTOMERS 
Again we wish to thank you for your generous sup- 
port in the past and in the seasons preceeding. Your 
business is appreciated and it is our hope that the 
service and quality you receive will merit its con- 
tinuance . 
We desire at this time to call your attention to 
the Pure Seed Law enacted by the last session of the 
Legislature . 
The Kentucky Seed Law does not allow to be sold 
any seeds containing Canada thistle, dodder, broom 
rape, wild onions and other noxious weed seeds. 
This law is a good one--one that we are heart- 
ily in favor of. 
Since we started in the seed business, over for- 
ty years ago, we have steadily insisted on the farmer 
buying only the highest grade of seeds, such seeds as 
are used in BRENT'S PREMIUM BRANDS. 
That we have continued to keep this brand up to 
its high standard of excellency is shown by its in- 
creasing sales from year to year. We have always been 
an advocate of the farmer sending samples of the seeds 
he buys to the State Experimental Station, for an- 
alysis of purity and germination as we have done, but 
as the station's capacity of a necessity is limited 
we have installed a complete seed laboratory in charge 
of a competent analyst. This will insure that our 
seeds not only comply with the law but also of their 
being the highest quality procurable. 
The seed law, of course, does not apply to seed 
dealers outside of the State, who may ship to the con- 
THE KENTUCKY SEED LAW
