“No Better Seed Can Be Bought at Any Price” 
FOR MARKET GARDENERS, FLORISTS AND HOME GARDENERS 
All our seeds are grown for us by the most competent growers, and the strains without exception are 
of the highest perfection 
Our list of varieties includes the choicest strains of all the best standard sorts but we recommend making thor- 
ough trials of our many new varieties because they have proved superior in many sections. Higher yields, better 
quality and disease resistance are important factors that distinguish many of the newer varicties.

tests are shown on each package. If interested in knowing germination 
before buying, write us.

use will, of course, vary from year to year, depending on seasonal 
conditions. Size and quality are also influenced, although probably 
to a less extent, by conditions of growth and geographical location.

havior under the most favorable conditions.
