A WORD OF WARNING! 
Due to the shortage of many varieties of vegetable 
seeds brought about by unprecedented unfavorable 
weather conditions during the planting, growing and 
harvesting of vegetable seed crops, we can only quote 
subject to price change and available stocks. 
High prices may seem unjustified to the average 
gardener but when short crops coupled with an abnormal 
demand from countries who formerly secured their vege- 
table seeds from Europe and who now come to the United 
States for supplies are taken into consideration, one can 
readily understand why prices have risen to such high 
levels. 
We are still sticking by our guns. It has always been 
our aim to buy the best for you and this policy will not 
be changed even though we might lose your business 
because someone else quoted inferior seeds for less.
