Dear Friends: I am very happy to greet you on our 25th Anniversary in the seed business. I like to 
recall the pleasant mempries of the fine business and co-operation we have had with the tens of thou- 
sands of satisfied’ customers during that time. 
This year we are again prepared to serve you. We confine our efforts entirely to farm and field 
seeds and specialize in that line. I believe we are well qualified to look after your interests and 
at the same time save you money on seeds of high quality. 
Regarding crops the past season, the Alfalfa seed crop was larger in some states and 
less in others, from previous year. Red Clover and Alsike were about normal, but there 
was a very small carry over. Sweet Clover and Timothy yields were not large. Forage 
crops like Sudan, Millets; Cane, etc., were decidedly short. Some of the grasses were 
extremely short, especially Ky. Blue Grass, which was the shortest crop in 25 
years. Regardless of any shortage, we acted quickly in accumulating stocks 
to supply our customers. However, we will have to disappoint some custom- 
ers this year on our New Strain Brome Grass. The crop in Kansas and 
Nebraska where most of it is produced was practically a failure. We 
do have large stocks of fancy northern grown Brome. 
While seed prices are high generally, we are selling our seeds at 
rock bottom prices. We buy many carloads direct from the 
producing districts. We sell direct to you, which cuts out the 
middleman’s profits. Our prices are lower on some seeds than 
your local dealer paid for them. 
Friends, I want your business this year and ask you to co- 
operate by sending in your order early while our stocks are 
complete. On some seeds there may be higher prices later. 
Our Money Back Guarantee on page 4 protects you. suy now 
at a real saving.

A combination that is hard to beat. Most 
farmers add some Alsike and Timothy to Red 
Clover for a well balance ed seeding. Lot “Dia- 
mond” is composed of 50% to 55% of Red Clover 
and Alsike Clover and the balance fancy Tim- 
othy seed. Much more Red Clover than Alsike. 
A very rich combination, When sown 8 pounds 
per acre, vou have an average of about 40 Red 
Clover and Alsike Clover seeds per square foot 
in addition to the Timothy. A fine seeding at 
a yery low cost.
