It will be our aim to return a greater value for the amount charged for this 
Journal than can be obtained elsewhere in the United States, and to this end—in addition 
to striving to make every number worth the full year’s subscription price in practical 
information—we propose the adoption of a new plan of PREMIUMS to SUBSCRIB¬ 
ERS, which will consist of a packet of Seeds of some New and Valuable 
Flower or Vegetable to go with each Number as a Supplement. 
These seeds will consist mainly of 
CHOICE AND RARE NOVELTIES 
which in most instances cannot be procured at any price of other seedsmen, and will 
not, as a rule, be offered by us at less than 15 cents each, alone. Following, as we do, 
the business of producing and selling choice Flower and Vegetable Seeds and 
Plants we think we will be enabled to carry out this plan to the utmost satisfaction 
of our subscribers. 
$1. Special Offers! $1. 
Realizing that fractional currency is scarce, and believing that we may gain permanent 
customers by putting trial packages of our seeds into new hands, we have decided to
