THERE is a surprise when you first ,
taste the melting sweetness of
Ferry's sweet corn. It is not ordi
nary sweet corn by any means. Nor
is a plump, red, smooth-skinned
Ferry tomato like an ordinary to
mato. Nor are the Ferry's Seeds
that grow these like ordinary seeds.
Remember that when you buy
(3L22fc-d . pure kel I
KSEEDS
Ferry's purebred Seeds, you buy
inherited quality. Quality is bred
into the' seeds. A careful up-breeding
of vegetables and flowers has
been going on in the Ferry trial
gardens for SI years. This means
that the Ferry's Seeds you can plant
today came from parent plants and
grandparent plants that were them
selves ' purebred. Sixty thousand
tests arc made annually in the
Ferry gardens for germination.
Thousands of other trials are made
for size, form, color, resistance to
disease. So far as is humanly pos
sible, wc dcterm inc that every crop
will meet the Ferry standards.
Ferry's Seeds arc easy for ama
teurs to make grow well, and arc
naturally the choice of professional
gardeners. They are fresh for
planting now, at the "store around
the corner." No packet of Ferry's
Seeds is ever carried over by the
dealer for sale the second season.
Send for the Ferry's Seed Annual.
It is more than a catalog. Address
