HARVEY SEED CO. ( INC., Buffalo, N.y. 
1936 SEED ANNUAL 
SUCCEEDING WITH SEEDS SINCE 1858 
The policy of the HARVEY SEED COMPANY, Inc., over a period of 78 years has been the 
greatest possible satisfaction to every customer. We are always happy to give you the benefit of our 
long experience by advice on the best varieties to use, control of insects or proper method of handling 
your particular soil or any other problem that may arise. If you find an acidity test of your soil necessary 
we shall be glad to make the test for you. 
VEGETABLES OF QUALITY 
RAISE YOUR OWN! It may be more trouble to raise vegetables than to buy them but there is no 
comparison between sweet corn that is eaten within an hour or two after it is picked and the same 
corn kept for twenty-four to thirty-six hours as it usually has been when bought in the markets. Even 
if the fresh corn costs more to raise than the market price, it is well worth three times as much. The 
same is true of many other vegetables. It pays to raise them. 
FLOWERS 
Nothing adds so much to the attractiveness of a house and grounds as a few flowers well cared 
for, and nothing will give more satisfaction than watching them develop during the season. If the flower 
garden is well planned you can have a beautiful display from Spring until late in the Fall. 
Even if very little land is available very pleasing results can be obtained especially if porch and 
window boxes are used to supplement the garden or border. 
We carry in stock on a large scale, flower seeds, bulbs and freshly dug plants of the highest quality. 
MARKET GARDENERS who require large quantities of Seeds will be quoted special prices upon 
request. Submit a list of varieties and quantities needed and we will mail quotation by first mail. 
FACTS YOU SHOULD KNOW BEFORE ORDERING

successful farming and gardening than good seed. With a 
full appreciation of this fact we offer only tried seeds of 
undoubted purity.

second zones. All orders shipped the same day as received.

At places where the express companies have offices, any

will furnish blanks for the purpose, saving postage and 
trouble. No charge whatever is made by the Express Com¬ 
panies for their services, other than the usual rate for 
carrying goods. 
HOW TO ORDER—REMITTANCES 
Orders should be accompanied with remittance or good 
reference. This saves much trouble and confusion during 
the hurrying season. The safest way is to send by registered 
letter, post office order or express, except for sums less 
than one dollar, for which we will accept stamps. Be 
particular to give name and post office address fully and 
distinctly. 
NON-WARRANTY— There are contingencies con¬ 
tinually arising to prevent the very best seeds always giving 
satisfaction. For these reasons, it is impossible to guarantee 
seeds under all circumstances,- therefore, we THE HARVEY 
SEED COMPANY, INC., give no warranty, express or 
implied as to description, quality, productiveness or any 
other matter of any seeds, bulbs or plants we sell, and will 
not be in any way responsible for the crop. All our seeds 
are tested before sending them to our customers, and should 
they fail to grow if promptly and properly tested by the 
customer, will replace the same amount or give value in 
others.
