Vitamins for Amazing Growth Results!

No Thinning, No Transplanting, No Waste! 
Gardeners everywhere have marveled at the wonders 
of the new Midland Pelleted Seeds that have been so 
widely acclaimed by magazines, newspapers and radio, 
and have stirred interest around the world! 
Originally developed by the Dow Chemical Company, 
working with the Sugar Beet industry, Midland Pelleted 
Seeds have been proved in six years of use and over 
188,000 acres of results. 
Commercial growers of many crops now 
enjoy better results, and seed, and labor saving 
with Midland Pelleted Seeds. While the supply 
cannot hope to meet the demand for several 
years, popular home garden flower and vege- 
table seeds are now available in limited quan- 
tities. 
No wonder every gardener wants them! The 
various beneficial coatings on each individual 
seed work together to give it a better start in 
life. The fungicide coating kills any fungus on 
the seed or surrounding soil. The coatings of 
hormones, vitamins and fertilizers feed the seed 
the special foods it needs for healthier, better, 
faster growth. 
Seeds are planted individually—the pelleting 
makes each seed large enough to handle easily 
no thick sowing, no waste, no thinning out, no 
transplanting necessary. The coatings also pro- 
tect the seed against cold, excessive dryness or 
excessive moisture. 
Midland Pelleted Tomato seeds, for example, 
can be planted directly in the garden three
