BUYING SEEDS 
We doubt whether any other business is built up 
and maintained on character and confidence to the 
extent of the seed business. Nor is the purchaser 
so dependent on the knowledge and integrity of 
the seller in any other business. It is impossible 
for any one to tell by looking at seed whether it 
will grow or whether it will produce the kind of 
crop desired. Buying seed then is largely a matter 
of confidence. We are gratified to know that our 
customers realize this and that for over half a cen- 
tury they have depended upon us for their seeds. 
As a result of this confidence many new orders are 
sent us each year solely because friends had recom- 
mended us to them. If you like our seeds tell your 
friends, or send us their names and we will send 
them a free catalog,
