YOUR FIRST STEP TO BETTER CROPS 
Many varieties which only a few years ago were regarded as satisfactory have now been far surpassed 
through the eee cation of modern methods of plant breeding. 
Such inods are fully employed at the breed ing stations, not only to develop new varieties, but also to im- 
prove pe meciintain at their best the standard types which are in general use. In this way seeds are bred — not 



va a plant in minature. All its inherited characteristics are there and the grower’s greatest care can do no 
Baa) a develop them. 
Choose your seeds with care, therefore, and remember that even the very finest seed costs but a small part of 
your total outlay in raising a crop. Seeds represent an enduring standard of quality. They are your first step to bet 
ter Crops,

We conduct our own modern seed laboratory. Our seeds are just as represented. If they prove otherwise, we 
will refill the orders free of charge or refund the money you paid us for same. If you do not find the article or variety
