RE-ROOTED VEGETABLE PLANTS 
SINCE 1901 
| SAFE DELIVERY 
We guarantee that your order of plants shall reach you 
in good condition. If any plants are delayed and damaged we 
will replace them. When your plants arrive, if they are not in 
good condition, open the basket in the presence of the Express 
Agent or Postman, and determine the amount spoiled. Have 
the agent note this on a slip, along with the date and time of 
arrival. Forward this slip along to us and we will immediate- 
ly replace the plants spoiled. The fact that some are spoiled 
does not mean that we will replace the entire shipment. Make 
the best possible use of them. 
We deliver the plants to the Express Company at 5 
o’clock in the afternoon. They forward them on the night 
trains and make deliveries to nearly all points in Pennsylvania, 
New York and New England the next morning or afternoon. 
From long experience we have learned that heating of 
the plants causes the most damage. We therefore do not send 
them out very wet. If they are a little wilted they will soon 
revive if the roots are dampened. It is a good plan to lay the 
bunches out on a celler floor or in the shade of a tree until 
they have. stiffened. 

FULL COUNT OF CLEAN PLANTS 
We try to have all plants carefully sorted and counted. 
If ever there is a shortage of plants we will make the short- 
age good if you notify us. 
The plants are packed in bushel baskets, standing on damp 
moss. 
We are located in a grain and dairy section and not in 
4 trucking section, so we do not have the pests and diseases 
that are often found in a trucking section. We change to a 
new field every year. Our soil has sufficient lime to make it 
neutral, so we are never troubled with club root. We treat 
all the seed we sow with Semesan. Being located in the New 
Jersey Highlands, the climate is cool and is therefore very 
favorable to the growth of stocky plants. 
SEED USED 
As is shown by our trials, the productive ability of the 
seed used is the most important element in the growth of a 
crop. We use only the best seed. We use certified tomato seed. 
Many of our customers write us that they have good luck 
in using our seed and plants. Some tell of yields of over thirty 
tons of cabbage per acre, others of systematic yields, year after 
year, of 20 or more tons of Danish Ballhead or Roundhead. 
With cauliflower, reports come in of nearly complete cuttings 
of marketable heads. Read these comments from our custom- 
ers on the inside pages. 
MAXIMUM YIELDS 
Our plants and seed will produce maximum yields if the 
proper cultural methods are used. The following are what we 
believe to be the essential steps: 
1. A good sod well plowed under when the furrow does 
not shine. 
2. Thorough pulverization by harrowing or disking at 
least five times, when the soil does not stick to the tool. 
3. The use of sufficient lime to bring the PH count to 6%. 
4. The use of sufficient fertilizer. Usually from 1500 to 
2000 pounds per acre is needed for cabbage, and from 2000 to 
3000 pounds per acre for cauliflower. 
5. Frequent cultivation when the soil does not stick to 
the cultivator.
