THIS NEW 1944 CATALOGUE 
offers quality seeds at fair prices. Total war requires the mobilization of every citizen. 
Our Government has asked for record-breaking crops and every effort should be put 
forth in producing bigger and better crops. To do this, good seed is of first importance, 
and we make a specialty of supplying Market Gardeners with nothing but the best. 
Our job is to supply you with only those seeds that will enable you to grow the 
very best crop, and since 1917 we have been consistently doing this. 
More than ever before, it is to each grower’s advantage to place an early order 
for his 1944 crop as shortages are appearing daily. We believe our prices are reason- 
able and consistent with seeds of the highest quality. 
It is a pleasure to take this opportunity to thank our many customers for their 
support during the past year. Your confidence enables us to keep supplying you with 
only quality seeds. 
You gave us a good year and we hope every one of you had a profitable one also. 
We hope 1944 will be your best ever.
