You ca“ epend an. Archias’ for Honest 
Sewice and Depnendalte Seeds 
To Our Customers, New ond Old: 
Just a few words about the history of our Seed Business; our old cus- 
tomers, of course, know us through many years of satisfactory dealings and 
we want our new customers to know us, too. Sixty-three years ago, the 
Archias family began the sale of seeds and nursery stock by mail. Prior to 
this time, Grandfather Archias was supplying his neighbors seeds, berry 
plants and fruit trees that he produced on his seed farm and nursery. 
Since this beginning, thousands of farmers and gardeners of Missouri 
and surrounding states have depended on Archias for their needs. Growing 
up in the seed and nursery business, we have made it our life’s work to 
supply the very highest quality of adapted seeds and plants. Through our 
long years of experience, we have found that the only bargain in seeds and 
plants is quality. 
To our old friends, we extend our sincere appreciation and thanks for 
your loyal patronage, and to our new customers, we are grateful to have 
the opportunity of proving that sixty-three years of successful seed service 
is not an empty slogan. Sincerely yours, 
ARCHIAS’ SEED STORE 
L. H. Archias, Jr. President
