Pea Trials at Northrup, King & Co.’s Trial Grounds Ten Miles South of Minneapolis 
Over 50 Years Of Garden Seed Service 
T HIS book is published for dealers. The variety information contained is accu¬ 
rate and so arranged that each item may be quickly found. The descrip¬ 
tions cover all varieties on our bulk garden seed list—a list which includes 
all the popular, better-selling items, both in vegetables and flowers. 
We are growers of beans, peas, sweet corn, squash, lettuce, turnip, cabbage, 
onion, beet, carrot and radish. Our stocks of all other varieties are obtained from 
the world’s best sources of supply. 
The excellent quality of our seeds is maintained in three ways: (1) all 
stocks not grown by our production department are obtained from choice crops 
supplied us by growers who have many-year reputations to protect; (2) each 
lot of seed is tested in outdoor trial grounds under average growing conditions 
and also (3) tested in our modern seed testing laboratory. We handle only one 
quality of seed—the best we can obtain. 
Our Seed Sold Only Through Dealers 
We believe it is more advantageous for planters to obtain their seeds from 
their local merchants. Therefore, all our advertising directs its audience to buy 
seeds “at home,” and all our literature is designed to be distributed through or 
displayed by dealers. 
Prompt Shipments 
Quick shipments, especially on late season orders, are quite a factor in the 
profit to be made from garden seed sales. Since we carry large stocks of a com¬ 
plete line—and our organization of about 500 skilled peopLg at Minneapolis is 
trained in efficient service—we are able to make shipment same day orders are
