Farm Seeds are subject to market fluctuations. 35 
RELIABLE FIELD AND FARM SEEDS 
Nothing is more important to the farmer than that the seed he sows is pure and clean. The seed should also be plump, and well ripened, 
so as to insure a good stand. 
First class, thoroughly recleaned seed, 
even though considerably more costly in the beginning, is really 
much cheaper in the end than the light chaffy grades generally sold at much lower prices, even if the latter is free from weed seeds. 
Prices subject to change without notice, owing to the fluctuations of the market.
