THE MEANING OF OUR TRADE-MARK. 
The founder of our firm, James Carter, was, we believe, the first to guarantee the germination of his 
Garden Seeds nearly a hundred years ago. The practice is still followed with the advantage of more 
scientific and up-to-date methods. The sign, Carters Tested Seeds, seen in the photographs of our build- 
ings, is in a significant position, as it is placed immediately over our Laboratories at Raynes Park, wherein 
the scientific skill of our Botanists and Analyst, aided by the finest apparatus in the world (always open 
to inspection), should assure for this title the very best recommendation. We were awarded the Large 
Silver Medal for our own invented apparatus for Seed Testing at the recent Royal International Horti- 
cultural Exhibition in London, and more recently awarded a Silver Cup by the Royal Horticultural 
Society at Chelsea. All our seeds, after passing through our Laboratory Tests, are grown in our Grounds 
at the same time as our customens grow them, to full maturity, so that we may assure ourselves of the 
quality and trueness of each variety. By examining our trials from time to time we know exactly how 
the produce of our Seeds should appear in the gardens of our customers all over the world, making allow- 
ances for the various climates, and by the aid of our comparative tests (we try all seeds of repute), wc 
assure ourselves that our customers are growing “the best and only the best” and “Tested.”
