Excerpt from 13th Annual Price List and Catalogue of Fresh and Reliable Garden, Field and Flower Seeds: Grown and Sold on the Seed Farm of Samuel Wilson, Mechanicsville, Bucks Co, Pa Field Seeds are now eagerly inquired and sought for in every town and hamlet in the United States and Canada as well as in Europe, Asia, Africa, South America, Mexico, Australia, 820. To accomplish this in twelve years and to build up a trade in an ordinary country town that reaches to the most distant parts of our country, and has become well known even to the far Od' Islands of the Pacific Ocean, has been no easy task, no boy's play. And although we have labored hard almost ui ht and day for twelve long years with but little remuneration, yet we have the satisfaction of knowing at we have made many friends and customers in various parts of the world, and have been instrumental in introducing many valuable and new varieties of grains and vegetables which have been and will continue to be a great benefit to the farmers and planters, especially in the United States and Canada. Of all this we very naturally feel proud and thankful for our great success; but at the same time must acknowledge our gratitude for the kindness and assistance of those of our customers who have stood by us in these twelve long years of laborious trials and care. We started out with the idea that a seed trade could be as well or better conducted in the country and on the grounds where the seeds are grown as in a large city where expenses are high, and where the parties have to depend upon the judgment of others for their information and knowledge of the seeds they sell.
