With 1938 my 
26th year of 
actual work be¬ 
gins, under the 
trade-mark of the 
House of Sonder- 
egger. For the 
greater part of 
that period I 
have been the 
manager of our 
seed department. 
To build up our 
name for good 
seeds I have al- 
w a y s concen¬ 
trated my efforts 
on the selection 
of better varie¬ 
ties, putting 
them to my own 
tests before rec¬ 
ommending them 
—testing every 
grain of seed be¬ 
fore it is packed, 
and paying 
prompt and care¬ 
ful attention to 
any requests 
from my customers. Just 26 years of 
serving you—and it has been a pleasure; 
now that I am beginning my second 
“Quarter Century” in the business house 
that my father built, I have but one 
wish, and am glad to make it known 
here: To have the opportunity of re¬ 
maining in contact with you, helping you 
in any of your garden problems, and fur¬ 
nishing you whatever you may like to 
sow. Good, fresh seeds, true, to name 
and prompt service on your orders.
