HORMONE TREATED 
All of our garden seeds (vegetable and flower) are HORMONE TREATED. 
We pioneered by offering HAVALAWN grass seed Hormone Treated—an advance- 
ment which we adopted after extensive research and experiment. The beneficial effect 
of Hormones has been proven. Hormones 
growth and more luxurious plant growth, 
speed germination, induce sturdier root 
and better crops. 
Remember, though, that our Hormone treatment is scientifically applied. The proper 
application to the seeds and the proper care of the seeds after the application are nec- 
essary to secure desired results.

WE WISH TO IMPRESS UPON YOU THE ADVANTAGE 
OF EARLY ORDERING. It is not only a convenience to 
us but it is also for your sake that we request this. Avoid 
the spring rush and have your seeds when you want them. 
They will not spoil, and the delay necessarily attendant dur- 
ing the spring will be eliminated. You will not be w alting 
for your seeds, when you should be planting. Our service 
will please you even during the busy season. Send your 
order now. 
Remittances should be made by Post Office Money Orders, 
Drafts on St. Louis Banks, or Express Money Orders. Where 
it is not possible to obtain these, the letter should be regis- 
tered. We cannot guarantee receipt of money sent in any 
other way. 
Goods desired C. O. D. must be accompanied by a partial 
remittance to guarantee acceptance. 
In filling out your order always give Shipping Directions, 
and write Name and Address distinctly on each and every 
order. 
PLEASE NOTE—ABOUT 
NON-WARRANTY. Most of the failures with seeds, plants 
and bulbs are due to causes entirely beyond our control, 
such as unfavorable weather or soil conditions, too deep or 
too shallow planting, ete., which renders it impossible for us 
to guarantee success, and although we take all possible 
care to supply only such goods as will, under proper condi- 
tions, produce satisfactory results, we still give no warranty 
as to description, quality or productiveness of any of the
