SEEDS THAT GROW FROM FOLKS THAT 
KNOW 
The photograph below shows a germinator tray 
with sprouting seeds. This is one of the ways we 
test seeds for germination. In our well-equipped 
laboratory a full-time analyst is employed who 1s 
continually checking all lots of seed for purity 
and germination, Every package of seed is stamped 
with a code letter and number and we can give 
you our laboratory test on any lot of seed if you 
will give us this number. All 
shipped with a tag bearing our laboratory test both 
for purity and germination,

Dickinson. 
865. DICKINSON. (105 days.) The fin- 
est pumpkin grown today. It will produce as high 
as 25 tons per acre. The pumpkin is a deep clear 
gold color throughout the flesh, so uniform in 
color that canners do not peel it, but only wash 
and place into the pulverizer where they are 
canned immediately. They pack out the deepest 
gold color one could imagine. It has three out- 
standing characteristics: It is so sweet that it 
requires no sugar nor starch in canning. Second, 
the color is ideal and requires no coloring, and 
third, it is an exceptionally heavy yielder. We 
might add that this variety seems to be resistant 
to insect pests. It is not suitable for Jack o’ Lan- 
terns because of the shape. Pkt., 10c; oz., 20c;
