FOOD PRODUCTION.

Yes, it is undoubtedly the duty of every man and woman in New Zealand to he doing his utmost to produce something useful during the present crisis. Any tirm that has been engaged in business for nearly sixty years has either proved its usel uluess, or is down and out for . good. In the.latter event it is often want of energy or want of real in- ' terest in the business engaged in , to which failure is attributable. A genuine and sustained endeavour to raise the standard and quality of goods is part of our -particular business, and we find it extremely ? interesting. It is our hobby as well as our business, and wc take a pride in the success of our seeds and the gardens and farms where they are planted. Cooper’s sell enough seeds each season to sow upwards of half a million acres; this is a fact, and not a figure of speech. We arc large planters of seeds our- , selves, and we know from hard experience just about all the h’oubles there are to know of in connection with seeds and seed-sowing. We know what to strive for and what to avoid. When you buy Cooper’s Heeds, you buy at the same time the benefit of over fifty years’ practical experience. That’s why our seeds are called the “Seeds of Suee'ess.” Now, we want to help along the movement to reduce the cost of living by growing more foodstuffs. With tins intention we offer “Special Value Collections” of seeds. These contain an assortment of the principal vegetables for a season’s sowing, together with instructions for planting—prices 3/0, 5/-, 7/0, 10/-, and 20/-, delivered free in New Zealand. They may he obtained from most of the principal storekeepers and sellers of Cooper’s Seeds in N.Z. Be sure they are the “Seeds of Success” Cooper’s Seeds. F. COOPER, LTD., Wellington, N.Z. GO
