0ur 51st Qy ear 
The Master chose a basic law of nature when He said, 
“As Ye Sow So Shall Ye Reap.” 
Nature’s laws are never repealed—it always has 
been true and it always will be true that a good har¬ 
vest depends on the sowing of good seed. 
There is good seed—fair seed—and poor seed. For 
51 years the Farmer Seed & Nursery Company has 
been dedicated to the task of furnishing good seed 
only, and has followed closely the new developments 
of the Experiment Stations. 
Buy “Master Farmer” seeds, and you 
are assured of good seed. 
We sincerely hope that farmers every¬ 
where will reap a good harvest and en¬ 
joy a prosperous 1939.

the crop, or for more than the price paid. In
