Dear Customers: 
every operation we make, either on the farm, in the home or in the factory. With 
this thought in mind I have decided to discontinue the growing and offering of 
Onion, Cabbage, Tomato and Pepper Plants. Experience proves they are not eco- 
nomical for you, as you can purchase seed direct from me and grow your own 
plants, either in a box of well sifted soil in the house, in a hot bed or in a cold 
frame you can make out of an old window sash and most everyone has an old window 
sash around the house. Even if it were not economical to raise your own plants it is 
far more practical, for in buying plants of me or anybody you just can’t have the 
shipment arrive at the proper time for setting them out. They either get there too 
early or arrive too late, but if you raise your own, which you can do for one-tenth 
of what the plants would cost shipped in, you will have them on hand in proper 
condition to set out in the garden or field the day you want to set them out, and 
furthermore, if a few plants should die after being reset you still have ample in 
your hot bed or cold frame to replant where a few died out. 
On all your plantings 
this year of Seeds— 
B- Plants—Bulbs—Shrubs and Fruits. You will 
be amazed at the increased Growth—Vigor— 
and Blooms on your plants after using Vitamin B-l.
