To the Gardeners of America 
Our congratulations to you for producing, can- 




















ning and storing more food last year than even 
the most optimistic thought possible. We are 
proud of this achievement; proud, too, of the 
part that our seeds played in making your gardens 
so outstandingly successful. Thank you for your 
letters of praise for Harris Seeds and for the 
many pictures you have sent—we wish we could 
print them all. So many of you have now resolved 
never to be without a garden of your own, even 
after the war, that we are sure a healthier and 
happier nation is in the making, and are proud 
that we are helping to build it. 
Last year the demand for our seeds was over- 
whelming and we are sincerely sorry that we 
could not give you all our usual prompt service. 
This summer we have built a large addition to 
our seed house and have much improved our 
equipment for handling orders. However, we are 
still short of help and will probably have to ask 
your patience and cooperation again this spring. 
Seed crops have been disappointing and in 
many cases supplies will be far short of the de- 
mand in 1944. Do not order more seed than you 
actually need to plant and use the greatest care 
in sowing to see that no seed is wasted. 
We wish you the best of success in 1944.
