TO OUR CUSTOMER FRIENDS... 
Once again we are confronted with unusual conditions in the Seed Trade. 
The war has made it difficult to operate this coming year, but we are determined 
to offer the very best, even though the price, naturally, has advanced in some 
cases. These conditions make it advisable for you to order early. The supply 
of the very best stocks, we are sure, will be exhausted long before the planting 
season is over. So mail us your list of requirements just as soon as possible so 
that we may fill your order with our special strains. 
As in the past, the Abbott & Cobb Seed List is restricted to those varieties 
which we believe to be of the highest quality and that will produce a profitable 
crop for the grower. 
Whether the varieties you have been growing have been satisfactory or not, 
it is always well to try the new things, especially when you have our assurance 
that they must really be good or they will not be offered in our catalogue. 
You gave us a good year and we hope that every one of you had a profitable 
one. May 1941 be your best year ever. ABBOTT & COBB
