to your garden seed; they were certainly fine in 1914. I had 
peo'ple far and near to come and see my garden. Everybody 
said I had the premium on it; every seed came up that I plant¬ 
ed, and you bet it wms fine, and I was so well pleased that I

WHY NOT A FALL GARDEN? 
It's a fair question. Why not have vegetables right up 
to and through the winter months? Most everybody is 
willing to start a garden in the spring. Why does your 
interest in gardens fade away in summer? It’s just as 
important for the health of yourself and family to have 
a good supply of vegetables in fall as in spring. You 
have the ground, why not keep it busy all the year 
round? You need the vegetables. Time to send for seed 
for summer and fall planting now. Send today. 
BEST SPINACH SEED 
Our specially grown Spinach is much superior to the ordinary imported 
feed in every particular. The germination is stronger and better, the growth 
larger and more vigorous and hardier. There is no better vegetable to fur¬ 
nish an early supply of “greens” than Spinach. It requires rich soil, the 
richer the better, and can be sown during October, November and Decem¬ 
ber, any time when the ground is not frozen. It germinates freely in cold 
weather and is a rapid grower. As “greens” its quality is unsurpassed.
