WN) eons we began the seed business over seventy-four 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 
nat to see our viewpoint, and at the present time every State, through its agricultural Department, is advising farmers to BUY ONLY THE 
EST 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 TEST.”
