USE THESE CHARTS IN PLANTING 
YOUR 1954 VEGETABLE GARDEN 
Rather than buy seed collections, plan your garden to your 
family’s tastes. We are ready to help. But start right with 
the best seeds. Since 1898 we have supplied thousands of tons 
of vegetable seeds to the nation’s most progressive, commercial 
vegetable growers who use only the best. 
Phone (MIlIburn 6-4430, or WHippany 8-0375) or mail us 
your order. We'll get it to you promptly.
