SPRINGFIELD SEED CO., SPRINGFIELD, MO. 
FARM AND FIELD SEEDS 
In Sealed Bags, Purity and Germination Certificate Attached. 
Years ago, when farmers and planters bought just “seeds,” they did not pay much 
attention to grade and quality. Now, however, with the advent of Farm Organizations, 
Government Agricultural Farms and Testing Laboratories, the farmer and planter buys 
seeds for quality, purity and germination. 
For thirty-eight years the farmers of the Ozarks have put their faith in “Star 
Brand Seeds” in sealed bags. Why? Because “Star Brand” and “Exchange Brand” 
Seeds are of the highest type, fully matured, perfectly recleaned, analyzed for purity 
and tested for germination. To enable you to secure your seeds at the lowest price, we 
have local representatives in every community who order their seeds in large quantities 
or carload lots. You can save money by ordering through our local representative. 
For quality and service specify “STAR BRAND” OR “EXCHANGE BRAND”. 
Weights per bushel differ slightly in different states. These weights are approxi¬ 
mately correct both per bushel and per acre. 
A Step Ahead of the Times 
We believe we were the first Seed Company to pack seeds in sealed bags, with purity and germination certi¬ 
ficates attached. This we did before seed laws required it. Our intention is to keep “STAR BRAND” and “EX¬ 
CHANGE BRAND” seeds the most satisfactory and the best seeds on the market. 
Prices on Grass and Clover and all Farm Seeds are constantly changing. We invoice all orders sent us at the 
lowest market price prevailing at time order is received. Latest market prices quoted on request.
