Dear Friend: 
If you are looking for the Highest Quality Seed—then here’s the place to get it. 
Garwood Seed is seed of the highest quality. 
All the seed that we sell is grown by specialists in their particular line. Men who 
have devoted years to the study and the development of seeds. Our growing seed crops 
are under their close supervision at all times. The stock seed that we plant comes from 
carefully selected plants, in many cases starting with a single plant. Great care is given 
to the breeding, selecting and harvesting of these parent stocks. This stock is then used 
to produce the commercia! seed that we use to fill your order. These fields are all care- 
fully inspected, rogued and harvested to see that nothing but perfect specimens, true 
to type, are seeded. 
The two most important factors in growing any crop is the Seed and the Seed Bed. 
The proper seed bed depends on you—give it your most careful attention. Your seed 
should come from a seedsman who has devoted years of work and study to seed growing 
and selecting. One who makes a specialty pf quality seed for commercial planting. 
Don't try to cut costs by buying cheap seed. The seed is the least costly of any of 
your operations. We make a specialty of growing seeds for the large commercial plant- 
ers, men who depend on their vegetable crops for a living. We ship our seeds to large 
planters all over the United States, and many foreign countries. That our seeds come 
up to their expectations is evidenced by the fact that they order from us year after 
year. We receive many letters from friends who are proud to tell us that they have 
used GARWOOD SEED for years, reporting good results. The name of GARWOOD has 
stood as a symbol of QUALITY SEEDS for over fifty years. 

To those of you who have been using our 
stocks in the past, we thank you for aiding in the 
success of our business. To those of you who have 
yet to try GARWOOD SEEDS, we ask that you 
plant some. Compare the results with seed from 
any other source. We claim that there are no 
better seeds than GARWOOD QUALITY SEED. 
With sincere best wishes for the 1949 Season.
