[[stamped]] SEP 1 - 1925 [[/stamped]] For prize contest. [[line]] For more than forty years I have used Burpees seeds but not exclusively,for I have tried many others, always using the [[underlined]]product[[/underlined]] of [[underlined]]Burpees[[/underlined]] as the [[underlined]]standard[[/underlined]] by which the [[underlined]]results[[/underlined]] were judged,for seeds must do more than grow, they must produce results. I rather seeds would not grow at all than take my land time and labor and pay me with scrub products. At exhibitions few others ever won a first premium where I exhibited the products of Burpees seeds. Wonderful vegetables, beautiful flowers have made life worth living. I am [[underlined]]still[[/underlined]] using [[underlined]]Burpees[[/underlined]] seeds [[underlined]]almost[[/underlined]] exclusively. Very truly yours, [[signed]] C.A. Olmstead [[/signed]] C.A.Olmstead 379,Bryant St. Buffalo,N.Y. August 25, 1925.
