FIELD SEED PLANTING INFORMATION 
Nicholson’s Quality Field Seed 
Thoroughly Cleaned and Tested for Purity 
and Germination 
You do not want to gamble with seeds of inferior quality and 
from an unknown source. In order to produce the highest yields 
you must plant good seed. Buying from a reliable source is your 
best assurance of getting good seed. 
The quality of “NICHOLSON'S Tested Pasture and Field Seeds” 
has been known for more than a half-century and by the faith of 
our many thousands of good customers in our high quality Field 
Seeds, we have been able to maintain the largest and most com- 
plete stocks in the Southwest. 
NICHOLSON'S Tested Field Seeds are dependable; allowing you 
to plant your crops with confidence, usually being justified as a 
result with good crops. 
Our Field Seeds are doubly cleaned and properly tested for 
purity and germination in our own laboratory, by one with years 
of experience and our tests are also verified by an offical labora- 
tory, in our sincere effort to furnish only the best and most depend- 
able in Field and Pasture Seeds. 
For the above reasons, we do and have for many years, enjoyed 
an.enviable reputation for handling only high quality seeds. 
At the time we go to press with this catalogue and during the 
past few vears, we have found it difficult to secure certain items 
of Field Seeds, especially so on certain Grasses and Clovers, but 
during these years we have succeeded in maintaining quality that 
justified the name NICHOLSON.
