Serving Three Generations 
Since 1876—for nearly 70 years—the facilities of our company 
_ have been dedicated to helping farmers, home- and market-gar- 
_ deners, and poultry raisers to become more successful. Through- 
out these many years, we have been enjoying a constantly growing 
patronage. This has made it possible for us to render our custo- 
mers and friends an interested personal service with no com- 
promise in quality or substitute for loyalty. 
Our supplies of seeds, fertilizers, insecticides, poultry equipment, 
and many other lines for 1945 will be ample to meet all expected 
demands, but due to wartime conditions, we cannot promise you 
everything you may want at all times. We do, however, promise 
this: consistent with government regulations, we shall spare no 
effort to provide for you all the necessary requirements that are 





















obtainable. 
We have many items in stock that are not shown in this Cata- 
logue because the available supply is not sufficient to satisfy the 
demand. If the article you want is not listed, please come to the 
store or get in touch with us. We may have a limited stock of it. 
We want to thank all of our friends and customers for their Z 
confidence in us these many years, and for 1945 we pledge all of 
you our very best efforts. 
_ Sincerely yours, 

January 20, 1945 President

OUR STORE, 500 LIBERTY AVENUE 
Planting a vegetable garden in 1945 is one of the most important contributions you can make to your country at 
war. Food raised in Victory Gardens the last two years helped considerably to ease shortages that otherwise would 
have affected everyone. This year the need is just as urgent or even more so, because stocks of many foods are low. 
_ Grow your own vegetables to be sure of having all you need. Plan at once and order early.
