"The growing of seeds demands the nicest skill and the'closest fellowship with plants. It is a business 
which demands much care and pains, and its promoters must be students. It is one of the most special 
and difficult of all agricultural operations.”—[U. S. Department of Agriculture Year Book. 
In this connection let it be distinctly understood that the Germain Fruit Co. are professional seeds¬ 
men— growers as well as sellers — of long experience and recognized standing among growers and dealers. 
When planting their superior California-grown seeds better crops and better returns are the results —a 
consideration which no soil tiller can afford to ignore.
