SEEDS, A BUSINESS WHICH RUNS ON FAITH 
DiD YOU EVER STOP TO THINK THAT, IF EVER A BUSINESS WAS RUN 
ON PURE FAITH, IT 1S THE SEED BUSINESS? YOU READ A CATALOG, MAKE 
YOUR SELECTIONS, BASED UPON THE SELLER'S DESCRIPTION, ORDER YOUR 
SEED FROM A GOMPANY MANY MILES AWAY, AND IN DUE TIME YOU RECEIVE A 
LOT OF LITTLE PACKETS. IF YOU ARE A VERY EXPERIENCED GARDENER YOU 
MAYBE IDENTIFY THE VARIOUS SPECIES, BUT YOU CAN'T TELL MUCH MORE. 
THEY MAY BE A GOOD STRAIN OF THE VARIETY YOU DESIRE, AND THEY MAY 
BE OF GOOD GERMINATION, OR THEY MAY NOT. 
But you HAve FAITH, AND YOU ALLOT A PORTION OF YOUR SOIL, AND 
PLACE IN IT THESE SEEDS FOR WHICH YOU HAVE PAID YOUR MONEY. THEN 
YOU WORK OVER THEM AND WAIT, AND 1T MAY BE WEEKS AND EVEN MONTHS BE- 
FORE YOU WILL KNOW WHETHER THE SEEDSMAN HAS KEPT FAITH WITH YOU. 
SINCE BY THE TIME THE SEEDS DEVELOP YOU MAY HAVE FORGOTTEN 
WHERE YOU PURCHASED THEM, !T WOULD BE EASY FOR AN UNSCRUPULOUS SEED 
DEALER TO GIVE YOU INFERIOR SEED. IT 1S THEREFORE A SPLENDID COM— 
MENT ON HUMAN HONESTY THAT YOU CAN BUY SEED FROM THE GREAT MAJORITY 
OF ESTABLISHED SEED HOUSES, WITH THE ASSURANCE THAT YOU HAVE GOTTEN 
THE BEST THEY CAN OFFER YOU. 
HERE AT FAIRFIELD WE TAKE PRIDE IN THE FACT THAT WE TRY ALWAYS 
TO FURNISH THE FINEST QUALITY OF SEED IT 1S POSSIBLE TO GROW, FRESH 
AND ALIVE, AND OFFERING THE GARDENER THE GREATEST POSSIBLE CHANCE 
OF SECURING PLEASURE, PROFIT, AND PRODUCTIVENESS FROM HIS OR HER 
GARDEN. THIS !S THE FAITH, AND WE AIM TO KEEP IT, ALWAYS.
