IT PAYS TO BUY THE BEST 
Once in a while a prospective customer will say ‘| can 
buy the same VARIETY of seed elsewhere for less than 
you ask.’’ We do not doubt this, but when we ask him 
about the QUALITY of the cheaper seed he usually answers, 
“Well—I don’t know about that; | didn’t ask and they 
didn’t say.” 
Upon investigation we invariably find that the lower 
priced seed is certainly cheap in every respect. 
We always aim to keep our prices as low as possible for 
the high quality of the seed we offer, and although the 
initial cost to you of our tested seed may be a little higher, 
the crop results prove that seed purchased from us was 
worth several dollars per hundred pounds more in com- 
parison with the so-called ‘‘cheap”’ seed. 
When ordering our LEWIS-CLARK QUALITY seed, you 
can depend on getting seed that is acclimated and will 
give you very satisfactory results. This is true of both 
our field and garden seed. 
The strict state seed laws as well as the Federal Seed 
Act now. in effect make it imperative that our buying and 
cleaning be done by experts. If you wish to make com- 
parisons, we will gladly furnish samples of field seed in 
which you are interested. 
Remember—-IT PAYS TO BUY THE BEST, so when order- 
ing, insist on our LEWIS-CLARK QUALITY, from your local 
dealer or send order direct to us.
