SUCCESSFUL GARDENING 
(Continued from page 81) 
Seeds Essential considerations at the beginning in the 
growing ot a garden are: land with proper fertility, 
moisture, favorable climatic conditions and seeds. 
The character of the seed is of vital importance both to the amateur and the 
commercial grower. The grower wishes to be certain that the seed is viable, 
true to variety and unmixed, also that they are receiving an improved up to 
date variety or strain. These are important because seeds determine to a large 
extent both the quality and yield. Our seed crops are grown from select stock 
seeds which represent many years of careful breeding. Extreme care is used 
in all growing operations. Two experienced parties check and double check 
the putting up of the stock seed to be sent to the farms. Proper separations 
are given all of the seed fields so that there will be no cross pollination. Fields 
are rogued and any unwanted plants removed. The seeds are carefully har¬ 
vested and properly tagged. Every lot is carefully checked by at least two 
people before milling. Mills, bins and elevators are thoroughly cleaned between 
varieties, every precaution possible used to guard against any mechanical mix¬ 
ture. At least two people check all lots of seed before being packaged to see 
that they are properly labeled. We are sincere in our work and believe we are 
paid to be extremely careful. Seeds are tested for germination in our seed test¬ 
ing laboratory and checked for variety in our trial ground. 
One of the leading European seedsmen has to say about prices and quality 
of seeds as follows: "No Seedsman can afford to go to the expense of produc¬ 
ing a superior, highly bred strain, and then go out and sell it on the market 
in a price competition with the man who takes little or no pains to keep his 
stocks pure. That road leads to ruin sooner or later. If he feels compelled 
to meet prices with irreputable dealers, he should not attempt to waste any 
time or money in breeding up better stocks, and incidentally, he may not ex¬ 
pect to secure and hold the better class of market garden trade.'' 
We invite the planting of these seeds in comparison with those obtained 
from any other source.
