Our Special Atlanta Catalogue for 1902. 
We find it necessary this year to issue a special catalogue for Atlanta and near-by counties. Our regular 
mail order catalogue contains scores of varieties, valuable in other sections, but which cannot be used to 
advantage here, and when placed in the catalogue, with their descriptions, are confusing to the buyer of seeds 
here. This is an Atlanta catalogue, for our home and near-by county trade. In it are illustrated and deseiibed 
only such varieties as we know are best adapted to this immediate section— varieties that we can fully recom- 
mend to you as being the very best for this section. It is a home catalogue, for home people, and cannot fail 
to be helpful to you in relieving you of making selections from long and confusing lists found in seed cata- 
logues. We do not illustrate or describe a single variety in this “special” catalogue that has not proved to be 
entirely adapted to this part of Georgia through actual field and garden tests. You can plant every variety 
with full confidence that it will succeed if given a fertile soil and proper culture. 
. HASTINGS’ SEEDS are no longer an experiment in this section. In a little over two years we have 
gained the confidence and good will of the many thousands of seed planters who have used our seeds. We have 
gained their confidence simply by treating them as they ought always to be treated in seed buying — giving them 
pure and vital seeds, of the best possible quality that could be grown — seeds that can’t help giving satisfaction 
if given a chance, by properly planting and cultivating them. Our business is built on the basis, not only of 
good seeds, bur the best seeds that can be grown. If you have used Hastings’ seeds before, you know this to be 
true. If you never have done business with us before, let us urge you to begin now ; not because we are a 
Georgia firm, but because you can get more good seed for less money from us than from any one else. We ask 
for your business in seed-buying because it will be profitable to you as well as to us. 
OUR FREE SEEDS FOR 1902. 
It has been our custom for the past two seasons to make each customer a present of extra seed on 
their purchases, and we expect to continue it in 1902. In addition to the offer of Flower Seeds on 
previous page, which see, we are going to give every purchaser who buys seeds to the amount of 50 
cents or over, between January 1st and June 1st, 1902, his or her own selection of either vegetable or 
fiower seeds, in packets only, (peas, beans and corn excepted) providing each purchaser cuts out the 
coupon below, fills in his name and address and brings or sends it to our store between January and 
June. There are many thousands of seed planters within thirty miles of Atlanta who have never tried 
Hastings’ Seeds. We want them to give our seeds a trial this year. The use of this 25-cent coupon 
certainly makes it worth your while to try our seeds this year. 
The prices in this catalogue are for sales made in our store and do not include postage. If you 
cannot come to our store conveniently, we will pay postage on packets and ounces of all small seeds at 
the prices given in this catalogue, but cannot do so on packets of peas, beans and corn, nor on quarter 
pounds, pounds, half pints, pints or quarts.
