It is the first time that tests of this kind have been grown before the public view, and it was gratifying to us to find that our methods of testing and grading seeds were a source of much interest to lovers of gardening and Agriculturists from all parts of the world. 
20 YEARS A C O (18781. The produce of Carters Tested Seeds has many times been brought into friendly rivalry with our neighbours and visitors from France. In referring to our records of 1878 (exactly thirty years ago), we find that our seeds 
were awarded Five Gold Medals, with the note as follows: “Paris Exhibition. Awarded the only Gold Medal for Grass in a competition between ten leading English and Continental Seed Houses, 1878. 
30 YEARS AFTER (1908). We now have much pleasure in reporting the following International Honours to the produce of Carters Tested Seeds.

\\ hen Mr. James Carter brought his name prominently before the public seventy-two years ago, through his determination to sell “The best, only the best,” he quickly made strides in public favour, and the little shop in High Holborn (which has since developed to a warehouse space of 3 a acres) 
soon became famous. The same determination has existed all through the long history of our firm, and is still always in front of us, we never forget “The best, only the best.” and we are happy to state that apart from the above list of 
Awards gained in International competition, the produce of our seeds during 1908 have won hundreds Of Medals and First Prizes all over the world.
