has practically placed our seed store at your front door. Whether you wish informa¬ 
tion or seeds, you are as close to us as your mail box. 
And remember, the seed store is always the place to buy seeds, plants, and bulbs. 
To produce, store, and distribute such items has been a life-time study with us. All of 
our thought and facilities are devoted to giving you first quality and prompt efficient 
service. This is our business and not a sideline, so we must give better service. 
After seventy years experience, we not only know best where and how to produce 
each kind of seed but we know how to store, clean, and test these seed so as to give 
you stock of good breeding, high vitality, and greater producing qualities. Knowledge 
is the basis of the seed business and this unseen element often controls the yield of your 
crops. 
Therefore, since you have an old, experienced, reliable seed store, so close, so easy 
to reach—practically right at your front door—why not avail yourself of the superior 
service of such an organization.
