HIS rnessage is not intended for Amer- 
icans throughout the 48 States—and 
it is not for the people of the entire state 
of Georgia in its 159 counties. It is strictly 
a neighborly, over-the-back-fence word to 
those who live here in Southern Georgia, 
love beautiful lawns and flowers and en- 
joy the thrill of having a thriving garden. 
There is indeed a reason for this! 
Southern Georgia 
Gardening problems, like seed, soil and 
climate, are peculiar to localities. The seed 
that flourishes in one part of the country 
may never even germinate in another. It 
is of prime importance to plant the varie- 
ties that best fit your own growing condi- 
tions. 
We are your neighbors and in our home 
gardens we frequently face the same prob- 
lems you do. These personal experiences 
through the many years we have been in 
the seed business have acquainted us 
with local problems so well that we can 
confidently recommend the right variety, 
proper planting time, method of cultiva- 
tion, correct feeding, insect control ... in 
fact, everything that contributes to success- 
ful lawn culture or gardening in Southern 
Georgia. 
You are cordially invited to bring 
your garden plans and questions to 
us.
