Laboratory. We must ship good seed to our cus¬ 
tomers or pur business would not increase. We 
cannot afford to guess at the quality of our seed. 
\V<■ must know. Therefore, every lot of seed 
which comes into our set dhouse is /tested with 
painstaking' accuracy. It is thoroughly analysed 
for appearance, purity and germination. The seed 
must show satisfactory tests or it is not shipped. 
The secret of our success and increasing farm 
seed business is in the care given to the selecting, 
cleaning and analyzing of every lot of seed. 
PLANT THE BEST QUALITY SEED POR BIG¬ 
GEST CROPS AND BIGGEST PROPITS. 
This is a corner of our farm, and test plot, showing* 
different varieties of corn. Clovers, alfalfas, etc., are 
in the same test but not in the picture.

You all know what the great drouth of 
1936 has done to the supply of legume 
and grass seeds, as well as grains of all 
kind, and corn. Crops in all the seed-pro¬ 
ducing sections have been exceedingly 
short and the prices will he higher. 
Fortunately for you, I had my buyers 
go in to the seed, producing sections 
early when the crops first started to 
move,—prices were the lowest then. We have laid in hundreds of thou¬ 
sands of pounds of all kinds of high quality farm seed representing 
thousands of lots. I am going to pass along to you the benefit of these 
lower prices on seeds. 
I do not know how long I can keep these low prices on seed because 
there is one of the biggest demands in the history of the country for 
MAYWORTH quality. 
The Alfalfa seed crop is about two-thirds of normal, Red Clover has one 
of the smallest crops on record, a light crop of Sweet Clover and 
grasses of all kinds. The drouth even prevented large seed produc¬ 
tion of Sudan, Hegari, and forages. 
My policy is to put prices as low as I can on seeds and to make 
only a small profit. That’s the reason I urge you to buy now before 
the seeding season comes. All prices no doubt will be considerably 
higher later, as our present stocks become cleaned out. 
I will appreciate your order. I will save you money and I will 
see that you get seed exactly as described that is adapted to your 
territory. Tell your friends and neighbors about the special low 
prices that Earl May has in farm seed for you early buyers. 
Your sincere friend,
