satisfactorily solved the problems of thousands of gardeners. 
From the very beginning, we have with pleasure made it our business to help customers, 
present or prospective, in garden planning and the solving of garden problems. Doing this 
constantly for twenty years, for the hobby-ists throughout America, has helped us as well. A
