And Burpee's catalog- it brings
Such happy thoughts of coming springs!

(One neighbor said: "I never look
Within that tempting Burpee book.
I shut my eyes to sweet pea wings-
I need the cash for other things.")
But tho- it meant some self-denial
I'm glad I gave Burpee a trial.'

(Miss) Lucia B. Cook.
