To our customers and friends, 
Peace has again come to us. Gardeners 
and farmers did a magnificent job produc- 
ing the food necessary to keep our war 
machine running in high gear. Now let us 
keep up the good work until peace time 
economy is established. 
Thousands of satisfied customers plant 
ALNEER’S RELIABLE SEEDS, PLANTS 
AND BULBS year after year. We shall 
continue to supply merchandise that has 
been famous for quality for 63 years. 
Vegetable and flower seed supplies are 
adequate this year but farm seeds (alfal- 
fas, clovers and grasses) are again in 
short supply. 
BY COMPARING PRICES WITH 
OTHER SEED HOUSES YOU WILL SEE 
FOR YOURSELF THE ADVANTAGE IN 
BUYING THE BEST SEEDS FOR LESS 
AT ALNEERS. 
Wishing you a very successful garden 
in 1946. 
RAYMOND J. ALNEER 
President and Manager 
Sincerely, 
RAYMOND J. ALNEER, 
President.
