To Our Triends and Tatrons: 
WE DO OUK PART 
W E ARE GLAD to report an increased demand among our gardening friends for Flower Bulbs this past autumn, 
and feel that interest in all branches of horticulture is continually expanding 
The steady improvement in conditions generally throughout our country leads us to believe that more 
and better gardens will be planted in 1934—more home-grown vegetables, more beautiful flowers, and better lawns. 
A small plot devoted to the growing of vegetables will amply repay the home gardener in that the quality of the 
vegetables produced is superior to any that can be purchased. 
New and better varieties have been introduced, and many of the best of these are included in this new issue of 
our thirty-seventh annual Catalogue. 
Our first aim is always to maintain the high quality standards which have always been associated with our name. 
We realize that a thorough preparation of the soil is most important, but will count for little if inferior materials 
are used. Our second aim is to supply our merchandise at prices that permit you to enjoy your garden at the minimum 
of expense. 
pOR your convenience we now 
describe our HARDY PEREN¬ 
NIAL PLANTS in this Catalogue 
(instead of publishing a separate 
list). We respectfully refer you to 
pages 101 to 121. 
The past several years have shown a reduction in the cost of producing many kinds of seeds and bulbs. These 
savings we have been able to pass along to you in lower prices. Last year’s 
reduced rates have been maintained where possible, and further reductions 
made in many instances. 
We were among the first to sign the President’s blanket code, and are 
glad to subscribe wholeheartedly to the principles of the N. R. A. 
The splendid response accorded our efforts for the past year on the part 
of our customers affords us great encouragement, and we desire to express our 
most grateful appreciation. 
Why the 
Stumpp & Walter Co. 
Products Are Superior 
They are obtained from the most reli¬ 
able sources; they are carefully tested jor 
germination, and laboratory-examined for 
purity. They are proved for quality by 
growing trial-plots in our testing-gardens, 
are prepared for use by people of long ex¬ 
perience, and are stored under ideal condi¬ 
tions in our new building, with scientifi¬ 
cally conlroZ/edlemperaluresandibumfdtlies. 
Fertilizers described in this Catalogue, 
with the initials S. & W. Co. or the word 
“Sawco” preceding their description, aie 
our own manufacture; we use highest qual¬ 
ity ingredients exclusively. 
Our Seeds are proved for high germination 
in greenhouse and laboratory tests.
