IT MAKES A LOT MORE SENSE — 
TO SPEND A FEW MORE CENTS — 
TO GET THE BEST 
When planting time comes, be it Spring or Fall, very 
few have made arrangements before hand for their 
seed requirements. When planting time is upon us, 
some folks will think of their nearest source of sup- 
ply; others will think of where they may secure 
their seeds at the cheapest price, but the wise 
planter will search for the best—not the nearest 
nor the cheapest. As a rule, such a planter is fully 
repaid for this extra effort and very small additional 
investment in seed. 
On any vegetable or flower seeds you may buy 
from Nicholson, you should know that both are con- 
tracted for a year before planting time. Such con- 
tracts are made in order to insure a supply of both 
seeds from the most reliable growers in this country 
as well as foreign countries. Such growers have 
produced seed for us on contract agreement for 
many, many years. 
As a rule it is not possible to contract the growing 
of field crop seeds or grass and clover seeds until 
the crops are harvested. But in buying the seeds 
here mentioned, we exercise extreme care in order 
to secure the best seeds available. Should we buy 
such seeds “in the rough” we are prepared to prop- 
erly process them in our own plant. After the seeds 
are processed tests are then made for purity and 
germination. 
After going through several years of drought, we all 
well know what a great part Mother Nature plays 
in the production of a crop. Let’s not add to the 
drought hazard by planting anything but the best. 
New home-owners should by all means reserve a 
spot for a home vegetable garden— and add to 
the beauty of your new home by planting more 
flower seeds for colorful blooms. It is the most eco- 
nomical method and your saving on vegetables will 
help pay for that new home of which you are so 
proud. 
We have been serving others for about seventy 
years. May we serve you?
