CONGRATULATIONS FROM FOUR YOUNG This is one of the nicest letters we ever received. It gives us 
ns * great satisfaction to win praise from these young farmers and 
BOYS WHO APPRECIATE ‘GOOD SEEDS we are just as proud of those blue ribbons as they are. 
= Of course we know it was not the seeds alone but their hard 
work and skill that really won the prizes. But we know too 
that superior vegetables cannot be raised from inferior seeds. 
That is why we have been striving for 65 years to improve our 
varieties, to develop new ones and to keep our seeds always 
at the top level of quality. The results have been gratifying— 
many of our customers who first tried Harris’ Seeds at the 
age of the Lussier Brothers have continued to use them for 
half a century. 
Here at Moreton Farm we have a big advantage over most 
seedsmen. We are close to our work and in our breeding plots 
and seed crops we can select those early, vigorous special 
strains that have proved so valuable for both home and market 
gardeners. All over our farm are trial plots where we grow 
hundreds of different varieties, both vegetables and flowers. 
There, by comparing them carefully, we choose those best 
suited to our Northern climate and to the growers’ needs. We 
find the best way to get the vegetables that have the best 
quality and flavor is to try them at our own dinner tables. 
If you have grown your own vegetables, you know that 
nothing can compare with the fresh-picked products of your 
own garden, and now with deep freezers many people can 
preserve the rich natural flavor of these delicious vegetables 
for year-round use. 
Don’t overlook the importance of flowers to the beauty of 
your home. You don’t have to be an expert gardener to have 
a lovely yard all summer with a few brightly colored beds of 
annuals and perennials. 
There are few things that will bring you greater delight 
than a thriving garden, and we believe that Harris’ Seeds will 
give you a more successful garden than ever in 1947. 
VEGETABLE GARDEN COLLECTIONS . .. at much reduced prices 
These collections are made up of our most popular varieties and the seeds are the very best we have. They are sold at reduced prices because 
they can be put up ahead of time, all ready to mail. For this reason we cannot make any changes in the collections to your order. 
However, in the event that we should sell out any variety offered, we reserve the right to supply an equally good variety of the same type in 
its place.
