‘This book is 
a Working tool. 

This Garden Annual of ours is far 
more than just a seed catalog. 
As you'll soon see, it is a very 
complete gardening book. 
From end to end, we've crowded 
this book with practical, usable facts 
which tell how to make your garden 
more fruitful and your home more 
beautiful. Whether you’re an old 
timer or new at gardening, you'll 
find invaluable help here. 
So keep this book on hand through- 
out the season! Refer to it often! 
The more you use it, the better your 
garden will be!

From one gardonor 
to another 
ARDENERS, the country over, are neighborly peo- 
ple. So we think it’s important to note that this 
Garden Annual comes to you from a neighbor. It 
is a localized garden book, not a national one. We 
issue it in the interests of the gardeners of our own 
neighborhood. 
We're sure you'll find a book of this type more inter- 
esting and more useful than the more generalized 
books which come from afar. We want you to receive 
it as a friendly message from one neighbor to another 
—and to consider it as a standing invitation to bring 
your gardening wants and worries to us—the year 
around.
