1917 — A Garden Year 
At no time in many years has the im- 
portance and the necessity of the 
home garden been so great as this year 
O UR country is facing a critical situation in the matter of food 
supply and yet a partial remedy is in the hands of most 
every individual. One half of your summer living expenses 
are for vegetables that should come out of your own garden. A space 
even as small as 25 x 50 planted with seeds of a high quality such as 
Henderson’s is sufficient for a family of six throughout the entire 
season. Fresh, crisp vegetables every day should be reason enough 
but in addition the saving makes it of the greatest importance. 
To get the full results from your garden you should plant the 
best seeds obtainabko Seventy years of successful seeds growing and selling make 
Henderson’s the standard. Henderson’s Seeds are Tested Seeds. 
“Everything for the Garden” is the title of our 1917 catalogue. It 
is really a book of 208 pages, with 32 colored plates and over 1000 half tones, all 
from actual photographs. Our annual catalogue is always exceptional, but this year 
we believe it the most beautiful and complete we have ever published. 
A Remarkable Offer of Henderson’s Specialties 
But after all it is actual results which count, and to demonstrate the superiority of Henderson’s 
Tested Seeds |We have made up the Henderson Collection consisting of one packet of each of the
