JUST A LITTLE CHAT WITH YOU 
Thirty-nine years ago we started this business. That was a very small begin- 
ning—just a little four-page circular offering a few items we had originated. Today, 
we number our customers by the thousands all over the United States and Canada. 
From boyhood, on our father’s farm, we grew up in market gardener farming and 
that experience enabled us to understand the needs and problems of the vegetable 
grower. 
Having been market gardeners ourselves, it was quite natural for us to specialize 
in market gardener requirements. All of our seeds therefor are grown or purchased 
to meet the quality required by these gardeners. This is also a distinct advantage to 
home gardeners and farmers, for we supply them all from the same sources. We 
supply seeds to several thousand market gardeners. On our farms near Portland, 
Oregon, we continually strive to develop new varieties and to improve many of the 
standard sorts. We always endeavor to secure the best rather than the cheapest. 
Cheap seeds are generally dear at any price. Seeds are a very small part of the cost 
in growing a crop and it pays every grower, small to large, to buy the best. 
Our business is a partnership owned and controlled by Ray W. Gill and Edward 
E. Gill. We believe in giving good service as well as good seeds. However, there are 
seasonal rushes which sometimes cause delays. We suggest early orders and this 
will reduce the rush periods. 
We will always strive to do our best; however, if you do have a complaint, 
please write and be assured of courteous treatment.
