afford to use any but the best seed obtainable. The seeds we offer here are identical to those supplied to these growers and under proper 
culture, will produce for you vegetables as good or better than those you see in the market. PLANTING DIRECTIONS AND CHART will be 
found on pages 30, 78, 79, and on inside front and back covers. MARKET GROWERS—Note: Please write for special quantity prices.
