Letter to E L Tatum.
Cumming Ga.
Dear Sir: Suppose you are
growing an acre or two of cab
bages; where’ll you get your seed?
The price of Lton? Island seed is
$2 lb; the Germans seid over tons
of “cabbage-seed” 50c lb.
Most gardeners buy the German
seed; ot course, you know they
wouldn’t pay $2 for cabbage-seeds,
when they could get it for 50c.
And that’s how people do about
everything.
Careful people buy th&-smallest
package of each, count out 100
seeds of each, and grow them a
week in a hot-house; then count
their plants. They’ve got 100 Long
Island plants and 10 German.
How, do you think, the Long Is
land cabbage-seed-growers account
tor that? They’ll tell you the Ger
man seed is mostly turnip, which
looks like cabbage, but isn’t.
Why didn’t the turnip-seed
grow? The Germans had killed
it. baked it. What did they bake
it for? Dead seeds tell no tales.
There’s a whole business in kill
ed seeds. A dealer can get all the
dead seed he wants, that look like
cabbage and something else ; he
can mix ‘em with actual seeds, a
pound to an ounce, and §ell you
your seeds at whatever price you
like to pay and wha f ever profit he
likes to take.
The same with paint; you can
paint with whitewash or paint,
poor paint or good ; you can pay
your painters $3 a day for brushing
it on. But whitewash is white
wash, poor paint is poor paint, and
g ?od is good.
You’d better buy good, and
pick-out your good by the number
of gallons it taites to cover a job ;
least gallons it takes to cover a job ;
least gallons, best paint, least gal
lons, least cost by $5 a gallon ;
least gallons, most wear.
Better buy Long Island seeds,
but try 'em first. Better buy De
voe, but try it first.
Yours truly
