We take pleasure in offering 
this catalog of farm seeds to 
growers in the Northeastern 
States shown on this map. The 
strains listed are those which 
foremost plant breeders have 
developed for the express pur- 
pose of raising the yield in the 
soils and climate of these states. 
Try them!

ICTURED on the covers of our 
1948 Catalog are summer and 
winter views of the Falls in our 
Village, as seen from our office win- 
dows. As far as the eye can reach in 
all directions there is a beautiful ex- 
panse of country. The Honeoye Creek, 
furnishing an outlet to Honeoye, Hem- 
lock and Canadice Lakes, flows into 
the Genesee River and provides good 
drainage for the surrounding territory. 
We are a part of the famous Genesee 
Valley. The soil 1s very fertile and 
ideal for raising good crops. Is it any 
wonder that our forefathers decided 
to settle here? 
It was in 1891 that Edward F. Dibble, 
a successful farmer in this locality, 
established this Company with the 
purpose of furnishing better farm 
seeds. Our first motto was ““Farm seeds 
and farm seeds only; one grade and 
that the best obtainable at the Iowest 
price consistent with the highest 
possible quality.” For nearly sixty 
years we have held to that motto and 
as a result have enjoyed the respect 
and confidence of thousands of farmers. 
In this Catalog you will find true 
descriptions of the best of farm seeds. 
We are farmers ourselves with both a 
knowledge of the value of good seed 
and the facilities for raising and pro- 
cessing It. Those seeds that we cannot 
raise ourselves are grown for us in 
other northern localities. Hardy, nor- 
thern-grown seed is what we need 
here in the Northeast. 
We trust that this Catalog will be 
a help in planning your seed program 
for 1948 and hope that we may be of 
further service. 
Sincerely, 
D. S. DIBBLE, President
