Te Our Customers 
VAN we began the seed business over seventy-one years ago, we realized, as few seedsmen did then, that the foundation of all successful 
crops depended largely on good seed. We determined that we would sell only the “BEST,” and began breeding selected strains, urging upon 
all farmers and market gardeners that there was no economy in buying seed of unknown purity and germination. Since then others have come 
to see our viewpoint, and at the present time every State, through its agricultural Department, is advising farmers to BUY ONLY THE BEST 
SEEDS. Today our ‘“‘THOROBRED SEEDS” are known world-wide, and thousands of the most successful farmers, home and market gardeners 
pronounce them “THE BEST BY EVERY TEST.”
