Market Gardeners’ Wholesale Catalog 
1936 
High Grade Seeds, Implements, Fertilizers, 
Twines, and Market Gardeners’ 
Requisites 
The seeds offered in this catalog are the product of careful selection and cross-breeding. 
Years of effort and labor are bred into our stocks before we offer them to the public. New 
varieties are added from time to time, but not until we feel convinced they are better than 
the old sorts. 
Every lot of seeds is tested before it leaves the house. This is done as an extra precau¬ 
tion to safeguard you against possible losses. 
Seed crops in general were excellent last year. Our stocks are complete and germination 
tests are high. We are now ready to accept your orders. If possible order early and state 
how soon you like to have the goods.
