Seed Trade Buyers Guide 
&G] TWENTY-SEVENTH EDITION [33 
VOLUME XXVII A NATIONAL SEEDSMAN PUBLICATION YEARSOF 1944 

N PRESENTING this year’s volume to the Seed Industry and 
its Allied Trades, the publishers have endeavored to assemble 
such new material as will be helpful to our-readers in guid- 
ing the millions of newcomers to horticulture, and more particularly to 
Victory Gardening. The many new pages of Facts and Figures are de- 
signed for the sole purpose of quickly answering some of the many ques- 
tions of beginners who seek help. 
The new pages of Weed Illustrations and Descriptions are a valu- 
able supplement to the 75 or more similar pages of former volumes. 
It will be noted that the Classification pages of this volume have 
been completely reset in stream-lined form and in easily read type faces 
to help our thousands of dealer readers locate instantly the source of 
supply they seek. 
All of the State Seed Laws show some form of revision, and twenty 
have been drastically changed or are entirely new laws. They all merit 
the trade’s careful study. 
It is our sincere hope that this 1944 Volume will be an important 
addition to the working library of all who are interested in seeds.
