THE SEED BUSINESS is a PLEASURE 
Unusual as this statement seems in these days of short supply, trans- 
portation difficulties and scarcity of skilled operators, nevertheless we still 
consider it a pleasure to be in the seed business. 
A CITY GARDEN 
Our front cover is a 
faithful direct color photo- 
graph of a garden in New 
Rochelle, New York, and 
we are proud that its owner 
is a faithful Max Schling 
The thrills and enjoyment that is yours in growing beautiful flowers 
and tasty vegetables is matched by the satisfaction we experience in the 
knowledge that we have played some small part in your gardening success. 
That is why we consider it a pleasure to be in the seed business. 
ses We are proud of our wartime record of service to our clientele, but 
, our best intentions and efforts were often thwarted by disheartening condi- 
tions, a lack of sufficiently trained operators, shortages of material and 
snarled transportation. 
Improved facilities and a greatly enlarged staff of experienced and 
trained employees will now enable us to render a Max Schling service that 
should be better than ever. 
We stand on our record of filling every mail order in time for proper 
planting with the finest seeds, bulbs and plants that can be produced.
