USE THESE CHARTS IN PLANTING 
YOUR 1950 VEGETABLE GARDEN 
Rather than buy seed collections, plan your garden to your 
family’s tastes. We are ready to help. But start right with 
the best seeds. Since 1898 we have supplied thousands of tons 
of vegetable seeds to the nation’s most progressive, commercial 
vegetable growers who use only the best. 
Phone (MArket 2-3740) or mail us your order. We'll get it 
to you promptly. Only orders of $2 or more sent C.O.D. 
Start these Vegetables indoors, or buy our plants
