Since 1882 
W HEN T. Lee Adams opened his seed store in 
1882 he established a reputation for fair deal¬ 
ing. Although the kindly old gentleman has 
passed on, his sound principles and reputation of fair 
dealing live on. They are the motto and standard by 
which we operate this business. 
Under the guidance of Mr. Adams’ sound princi¬ 
ples, his original seed store has grown to be the largest 
and most dependable source of seed supply in Mis¬ 
souri. Along with the dependability and reliability of 
the seeds we sell, service and convenience is also a 
large consideration, and so—

Has been established at 514 Kansas Ave., Topeka, Kan. 
For the convenience of our customers in this vicinity, a

dence, under the management of Mr. A. S. Smith. 
All of you will find a cordial welcome awaiting you 
here, as well as in our main store in Kansas City. We 
also wish particularly to thank you most kindly for your 
generous confidence and patronage throughout the 
years.
