va Word To Our Customers 
UPPLYING seeds for the folks in Lancaster County is a big job, for these are particular people with genera- 
tions of “know-how” behind them. We are proud of the part we have in keeping their farms productive. 
Good seed is the basis of all successful farming, and that 1 is the only kind we handle . . . seed of high ger- 
mination, free of weed seed, carefully handled and tested. If it is new to you, we invite you to send us an order 
this year; if you are an old customer, we thank you for your patronage and promise our continued good service. 
We also have a large line of horticultural supplies, grass seed, annual flower seed, insecticides, plant foods and 
related sundries. There is not room to list them all in our catalog, but we hope you will drop in our store and 
look around. You will see a great deal of interest here. We also carry a full line of toys and playground equipment, 
as well as baby chicks and ducklings. 
If you live in Lancaster County, our fleet of delivery trucks is at your service. Beyond this, we send by 
parcel post, freight or express. 
With best wishes for your 1952 garden,
