Seeds that Surely Crow.

The cost OF reeds compared with the
value of the crop is SO small that few
cents saved by buying second rate seeds
will amount to many dollars lost when
the harvest is gathered. Farmers have
found out by many costly failures what
u risky thing 1t is to buy seeds without
being pretty sure that they are reliable
and true to name. The latest catalogue
OF the seed house OF d. NJ. Ferry & Co..
OF Detroit, Mich, is a reminder that
thousands OF farmers in the United
States and Canada have pinned their
faith to the reputation of this great
firm. During business career ap-
preaching half a century in time Ferry g
seeds have won an annual increase in
popularity, which lie perhaps the best
evidence that they grow and give salts
