^[[1419]] [[stamped]] SEP 1-1925 [[/stamped]] "For Prize Contest" W. Atler Burpee Co., Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. Dear Sirs: I am glad, I sent for your seed catalogue, when I decided, to have a flower garden. The superb illustrations of every flower, found in the American gardens, reproduced in their natural colors, made it possible for me to select just what I wanted. I have been extremely successful, and my flowers have been just as illustrated. My garden is so attractive, that my friends, who have seen it, ask me, where they came from. I am glad to tell them - Burpee's. To make a long story short, I shall always be a satisfied customer. Very truly yours, Mrs. Fred Dillman, 719 W. 2nd Street, Bloomington, Ind.
