EVEN A SMALL SPACE PLANTED IN VEGETABLES PAYS BIG DIVIDENDS 
SEED DEPARTMENT 
Ask the man who made use of the vacant spaces In 
bis back yard last year in growing his.own vegetables, 
he will tel', you it was pleasant work, valuable returns 
in an abundant supply of wholesome food for his fam¬ 
ily. Vegetable gardens everywhere have been such a 
help in these “hard times.” There is no better advice 
for a man who depends on his work for a living— 
whether it be on the farm or in town—than 
“GROW YOUR OWN VEGETABLES.” 
This Department is under the management of Ernesi 
and Arthur Sonderegger who have had many years of 
experience in the seed business in this country, also 
in Europe. All orders entrusted to us will have theiV 
careful attention and will be promptly filled. 
NOTICE 
Buy Your Seeds from a 
Reliable House 
Pure, clean seeds, of course, are the basis for suc¬ 
cess. There are seed brands on the market which can 
be had for almost nothing. But no reliable seedman 
would stake his reputation on such a product, which 
Is bound to result in a heavy loss to the homemaker 
who depended on the returns from his garden work. 
For this reason we must bring before you this warn¬ 
ing: Regardless of whether you buy your seed from 
us or not, do not buy because they are cheap, buy 
the brand which has proven to be good, and is sure 
to be reliable. 
We would advise every farmer and gardener to buy 
their seeds from a reliable seed house, especially this 
year. The past summer was a very poor season for 
seed crops and the yield of many varieties was very 
low. Short crops always force a lot of low germination 
seed on the market. Our seed testing department is 
fully equipped with the latest model tester and is oper¬ 
ated by experienced operators. We make a germina¬ 
tion test of every lot of seed which comes into our 
warehouse and a permanent record is kept of same 
With this method there is no guesswork and you are 
sure to get seeds of good quality. 
Small quantities of seeds are all quoted 
r uaipam postpaid. Items not quoted postpaid will 
be shipped at the expense of the purchaser. 
The Sonderegger Nurseries & Seed Hquse give no 
LMStidimci warranty, express or implied, as to description, qual¬ 
ity, productiveness or any other matter of any seeds it sells and will 
not be responsible for the crop. If the purchaser does not accept the 
goods on these terms, they are to he returned at once. Every reputable 
seed house is using this same disclaimer.
