Mm’s Sugerioi Ms Yield Superior Products. 
BLOOD WILL TELL IN SEEDS AS WELL AS ANIMALS. 
I T is not enough to Know tHat seeds grow, for weed seeds will grow! The vital point is. What will 
they produce ? This is a matter that is too seldom taken into consideration by the average buyer, many of whom are 
more interested in hunting for the lowest in price, while progressive farmers and gardeners appreciate that “blood will tell” 
in seeds as well as in animals, and realizing that their crops depend upon the seeds they plant, avoid “ cheap ” seeds as being 
poor economy, knowing that superior seeds produce superior and more profitable crops. 
While we do not wish to appear egotistical, yet in justice to ourselves and our seeds, and for the benefit of people who 
have never dealt with us, we claim to be the producers and distributors of the best seeds in the world —it is our business 
and our profession. We know that planters of seeds buy them entirely on confidence ; we realize that to lose a man’s con¬ 
fidence is to lose his patronage. If you have never used our seeds, try them tbis year, and we will try and retain your 
confidence, as we have succeeded in doing with annually-increasing thousands for over half a century.
