SAWYER MOTOR COMPANY Phone 116 Manteo . , / ; /y I have already received a num ber of new seed catalogs for 1954 and they are better than ever beautifully illustrated, and con taining many new varieties of flowers and vegetables. If you haven’t received yours, address a post card to your favorite seed house, or send for several dif ferent ones so that you can com pare their specialties. Each company has certain specialties and novelties which it emphasizes and recommends to its customers, as well as the standard varieties. This is es pecially true of hybrid varieties. A few seed companies produce new hybrid varieties of vege tables being introduced by seeds men especially of tomatoes, cucumbers, and sweet corn. Some of these are distinct improve ments over standard varieties; some are not as good. The way to find out if they suit your needs is to try them out.
