COATED SEEDS—THE GARDENER'S NEWEST AID 
When even the smaller seeds can be coated 
so that they are as easy tO sOW as peas, you 
save time in setting out the garden and still 
more by abolishing’ the tedious work of thin- 
ning, with its risk of disturbing the roots of 
plants left standing. Several varieties of the 
smaller seeds are now available from Asgrow 
dealers, coated with a neutral medium by the 
new Filtrol process which, in our judgment, 
gives the best results. You will find them in 
our Filcoat seed packets and we recommend 
you to try them and see for yourself how much 
easier they make your gardening in Spring. For 
the commercial grower, orders can be filled on 
a custom basis.
