VALUE.$2.52 
$2.00 POSTPAID 
In Drougth Resistant Garden Collection we actually offer you $2.52 worth of fine quality seeds for the amount of $2.00, 
and in addition we pay the postage. 
Gurney Seeds are the finest that can be obtained. They stand in a class by themselves for purity, high germination qual¬ 
ities, and ability to produce good healthy plants, roots, or stalks during any normal growing year. 
When you buy from Gurney, you’re buying from the “Home of Seeds, Trees, and Nursery Stock that Grow and Satisfy.” 
$2.00 May be Worth $418.25 Plus the Prize 
This is Don Gurney speaking, folks-: “D. B. and I sat down the other day to figure out how much a person who purchased and 
planted Drougth Resistant Garden Seed Collection could expect during a normal growing season. 
After estimating very conservatively the amount of produce that these seeds are capable of producing during a normal year, we 
computed the value of the crop based on prices that were effective during the Spring and Summer Seasons of 1936, here in Yankton, 
South Dakota. 
The results were very surprising indeed'—pleasantly surprising, for they totaled up to $418.25, not counting fresh beans and peas, 
lettuce and radishes, parsley and spinch that could be used by the grower on his own table. 
We are listing our tabulations below, because we believe our figure*, which I assure you are very conservative, will be of con¬ 
siderable interest to you.
