Wilk’s Selected Strains and 
Specialties in Vegetable Seeds 
As usual, we are presenting our Special 
Strains and Novelties in Vegetables in a sep¬ 
arate list. Our gardening friends, we feel, ap¬ 
preciate this, as it enables them to quickly pick 
iut the especially “good things” w r e have to 
offer. These special strains are produced by 
growers who have spent a lifetime in testing 
and growing these stocks, and we have their as¬ 
surance of these items being worthy of the con¬ 
fidence we place in their judgment.
