rtmoug parm 
has always been a warm, helpful, neighborly 
spirit. The strain of wartimes has helped 
make it all the stronger. 
Young folks of today come through with 
resultful effort unthought of some years back. 
Those three smiling lads seated on the hay 
bales on the front page . . . who wouldn't 
give a lot for the many real helps they can 
render each day! The same can be said of 
today’s farm girls and women. The spirit is 
wonderful. And how they help get the many 
farm jobs done! 
In what rural section, when sickness, acci- 
dent or death strikes, is there not the quick 
neighborhood response—to husk the unfortu- 
nate’s corn, harvest his crop, raise the new 
barn, loan a team, tractor or other equip- 
ment? To help out over the hard luck spots. 
Contacts with such neighborly folks twelve 
months a year lead naturally to such a book 
as this one now in your hands. It tries to be 
a helpful, friendly book, with useful informa- 
tion to serve as a planting guide. Suggests 
practices to save you time and boost your 
production. Presents straightforward details 
on the seeds offered for your purchase. 
Months have been spent gathering for you 
the kind of seeds that will help make good 
farming pay better. Naturally, the hope is 
that you will purchase from these supplies, 
and put these fine-quality seeds to work for 
you. 
Taken altogether, the aim of this book and 
the folks back of it is the offering of practical 
help. Help which you can turn into profitable 
use on your farm this year.
