First, longexperience in doing a great volume of business; second, adequate equipment; third, sufficientcapital. We are compelled to have a large organization. The result is minute subdivision of labor sothat every man can be and is an expert in his own field. This Specialization is furthered by leaving outof our scope the entire range of field seeds, potatoes, insecticides, etc., and confining ourselves solely toflower and vegetable seeds. These it is our business to know and we bring to the study every help thatscience can suggest. Our stock seed farm is run at an enormous cost because only a fraction of the plants grown aredepended upon for breeding. It is to our financial advantage to select only the best but many seed firmsareseedannual19091909dmfe
