Abstract

SAVE 30% TO 50%Farmers all over the country plant our Farm Seeds every year because they get good, dependable yields from Standard Seeds, and save from one-third to one-half on their seed cost.That's real saving, isn't it?Naturally, you won¬ der how this is possi¬ ble, and you have a right to know.There are two reasons: First, we keep our overhead down to bedrock.Second, we are satisfied with small profits on large volume sales.In selling direct to planters, eliminating all mid¬ dlemen, salesmen, commissions and usual sell¬ ing expenses, we add very little to actual cost in making our prices-just enough to cover our limited expense in selling by mail, and a small profit.Planters from all over the country write us of their great suc¬ cess with our seeds, and the money we save them.Our mail¬ ing list has been built up largely by satisfied customers-who tell their neighbors about us, and they in turn write for our prices.A.
