Only the Best is Good Enough 
B EFORE this business was founded we decided that the House of Hunt was to 
be a House of Quality, and for nearly a quarter of a century we have faithfully 
kept the promise made to ourselves then, “To handle only the best,” so that 
today Hunt’s Seeds, Plants, Bulbs, and Supplies are the very best obtainable, un¬ 
surpassed for reliability. 
There are two things essential for a good garden: Well-prepared soil and clean, sound 
seed, bulbs, and plants. One is useless without the other. It does not pay to plant fine 
materials in poorly prepared ground, nor does it pay to use cheap materials in the best 
of ground. 
In these troublous times there is an urge to grow more vegetables for food. 
This is a splendid idea as most of us do not eat enough vegetables, but the more 
gloom in the world the more beauty we need in our homes, and in addition to 
raising more vegetables we should grow more flowers to help brighten our lives. 
The old adage “All work and no play makes Jack a dull boy” still holds good. 
Let us work with our vegetables and play with our flowers for a happier year.
