“Bill Tells The Truth” 
WHY IS IT BILL- THESE 
PAST 6OR 8YEARS,YOU 
ALWAYS GET A BETTER 
WHEAT-CROP THAN I DO ? 
WHAT KIND 
OF SEED DO 
YOU SOW 1 ? 
I DON'T KNOW ITS NAME- 
BUT MY DAD GOT IT MANY 
YEARS AGO.. BUT IT’S NICE 
WHEAT. 
WELL TOM - 
I JUST THOUGHT 
THAT'S WHAT 
YOU’D SAY. BEFORE 
I LEARNED BETTER, 
I’D HAVE SAID 
THE SAME THING. 
WHAT DO YOU 
MEAN-LEARNED 
BETTER? 
I’LL TELL YOU-I STARTED 
BUYING MY SEED-WHEAT 
FROM HOFFMAN SOMEYEARS 
AGO. IT PAID ME FROM THE 
START. I GOT MORE 
BUSHELS FROM IT. , 
YOU MEAN YOU 
BUY NEW HOFFMAN 
SEED EVERY YEAR 
-YOU CAN'T AFFORD 
THAT CAN YOU! 
IDIDNT BUY IT EVERY YEAR AT FIRST 
-BUT IOO NOW! WHY I CAN’T AFFORD 
NOTTO GET IT EVERY YEA R. I ALWAYS 
GET MORE BUSHELS FROM THE NEW 
SEED, AND I'D JUST MISS GETTING 
THOSE BUSHELS, IF I DIDN’T GET 
NEW SEED EVERY YEAR.. 
I OFTEN WONDERED WHY 
YOUR FIELDS LOOK SO 
GOOD AND CLEAN-YOUR 
WHEAT STANDS UP SO 
NICE-AND THETHRESHER 
OFTEN TALKS ABOUT 
YOUR GOOD TURNOUTS. 
TELL YOU TOM.LETS DO 
THIS. WE'LL ORDER OUR 
HOFFMAN SEED WHEAT 
TOGETHER THIS YEAR - 
FOR YOUR PLACE AND 
MINE.WE'LL BOTH SAVE 
MONEY--THE BIGGER 
THE ORDER,THE LOWER 
THE 
ALL RIGHT—I'LL JUST DO IT./ 
I'LL BE OVER TONIGHT AND WE'LL / YOU BET THERE 
MAIL THE ORDER. I BELIEVE IS! I KNOW IT! 
THERE MUST BE SOMETHING /'AND NEXT HARVEST 
TO THIS THING OF NEW/ YOU WILL TOO!
