Mottf our 
SEEDS 
are grotam 
S INCE our trade extends east to the Atlantic, south to the Gulf of 
Mexico, west to the Rocky Mountains and north to extremely 
cold localities, we take every precaution to have seed that will 
give good results wherever we may sell. While we use the crops 
from over 1 200 acres, right here at Rochester, which supplies the 
bulk of our seed, we cannot grow some varieties of seed in this climate. 
Most of our varieties of Dent Corn we grow in one of the most fertile 
counties in the State of Ohio. Every precaution is taken with all 
crops to keep each variety separate and free from any admixture. 
STAJVVIJSTG I JW VI TA TIOJ4. 
To all customers or salesmen visiting Rochester at any time, we extend a hearty invitation to call on 
us and look over our warehouses and cellars or the crops in growing season. 
'REFE'REJVCES : 
Bank of Monroe, Rochester, N. Y. Mayor of Rochester. Dun’s, Bradstreet’s, or Mutual Mercantile 
Agency Commercial Reports. Postmaster or any Bank or business firm in Rochester. 
We also give letters from customers and salesmen taken at random from localities where our seeds 
have been used, in many cases, for the past ten years. These letters are published giving addresses by 
county for obvious reasons — we do not furnish addresses for the benefit of our competitors. 
Facilities for hipping. 
We believe our facilities are superior to those of any other firm in the seed trade. We can load 
cars on the tracks of the N. Y. C. & H. R. R. direct from our warehouse doors. This is of special 
benefit to customers in having their orders filled with dispatch at shipping time. 
For Cleaning 
our Seed 
We have the most expensive and the 
most perfect cleaning machine that money 
can buy represented in the above cut. 
The grain, when received at our ware- 
house, passes into a hopper beneath the 
ground floor ; is there taken by a grain 
elevator consisting of an endless chain of 
cups to the top of the warehouse, at an 
even How, and deposited in the cleaning 
machine. This machine makes five se- 
parations, that is, all grain which enters 
it is delivered in five different grades. All 
the light and imperfect grains are taken, 
weighed in the air and carried away by 
suction. To accomplish this there are 
two large fans which revolve at the rate 
of 600 times per minute.
