Visit Forbes Sales Garden... 
On Route 10, at Hanover, N. J. 
OPEN FOR THE 1947 SEASON... SATURDAY, MARCH 1 
J ust a mile west of the Livingston traffic circle you'll find 
all the things needed for your 1947 lawn and garden. 
Drive over any day, including Sunday, andenjoy our dis- 
plays of Daffodils (40 varieties) in April, and Tulips 
(135 varieties) in April and May. You'll be very welcome. 
We show on this page two helpful charts. Rather than 
buy seed collections, plan your garden to your family’s tastes. 
We are ready to help. But start right with the best seeds. 
Since 1898 we have supplied thousands of tons of vegetable 
seeds to the nation’s most progressive, commercial vegetable 
farmers who use only the best. 
Phone (MArket 2-3740) or mail us your order. We'll get it 
to you promptly. Only orders of $1 or more sent C.O.D.
