OYSTERS AND SEEDS
Are valuable for what's in 'em. Good and
bad oysters look alike in the shell. Good and
bad seeds often have the same appearance.
Any one can tell a worthless oyster on open-
ing it. 'The value of a seed must be deter-
mined by its growth. This makes its quality
worth considering. You want seeds that will
grow and you want the proauct to be of
value. You cannot insure either of these
things by mere inspection. There is but one
guarantee; the reliability of the firm from
which you buy. llial our adverti-ers
