The 77 Live at Home 77 Policy 
» » 
Several years ago one of the Southern agricultural 
journals advocated what they called the “live at home” 
idea. This was that the farmer was to buy nothing 
that could be produced on the farm. He was to raise 
his own meat and the feed necessary to do it; he was 
to grow all the vegetables that went on his table; his 
farm, as far as possible, was to be “self-contained.” 
This policy is distinctly good and we endorse it hearti¬ 
ly. Make it your policy and note the feeling of satis¬ 
faction it will give you and the difference it will make 
to you financially. 
For more than fifty years we have supplied high- 
grade seeds to several hundred thousand gardeners 
and farmers. In all these years we have never sacri¬ 
ficed quality for price. We will continue to supply 
good seeds at a reasonable price because it is the fair 
thing to do and because we want to hold your confi¬ 
dence in Wood’s Seeds. We promise fair treatment 
and prompt attention to every order you entrust to 
us, and look for a continuance of your confidence in 
us. It is much appreciated. 
Wood’s Crop Special, issued regularly during the planting 
season, gives timely suggestions about what and when to 
plant, and quotes current prices of field seeds.- Write for 
it—it is free and we want you to have it. 
We cordially thank our many friends for the splendid 
business with which they have favored us. We hope you 
will continue to favor us, and on our part promise prompt 
attention, fair treatment and seeds that will grow. 
Very truly yours, 
January 1, 1934. T. W. WOOD & SONS.

Wood’s Seeds Are Tested and w ? know t hat the y will 
grow before they are sent 
out. Even then they occasionally do not come up, due to causes 
over which we have no control, such as covering too deeply 
or not deeply enough; too little or too much moisture; cold 
weather, insects, or a crust through which the sprouts cannot 
penetrate, etc.; therefore, T. W. Wood & Sons give not war¬ 
ranty, express or implied, as to description, quality, produc¬ 
tiveness or any other matter of any seeds, bulbs or plants 
they send out, and will not be in any way responsible for the 
crop. If the purchaser does not accept the goods on these 
terms, they are at once to be returned and the amount paid 
for them will be refunded. 
We offer you the best seeds because it is fair thing to do and 
because we want to stay in business and grow. But we can¬ 
not control planting and cultural methods and weather and 
soil conditions,, all of which affect the outturn of crops. 
c O n Sliinmonle Shipping C. O. D. only adds to the 
ks. ts. jiiipineuib cost, as the buyer pays the expense 
of collection. If you prefer shipment C. O. D. remit with your

will we ship plants and other perishable goods C. O. D.

elapse between the writing and

field seeds, may have changed. As far as possible, these price 
changes will be printed in our CROP SPECIAL, a copy of 
which, quoting current prices, will be sent you free on re¬ 
quest. At any time we will be glad to quote you firm prices, 
or we will fill your order at the lowest prevailing prices, 
whether higher or lower than as printed in this catalog. If
