"FOR PRIZE CONTEST"

Gentlemen; 

"Burpee's Seeds Grow" I have planted Burpee seeds for many years in the States,and now in Portugal.

I gain health,happiness,dollars,good eats and a lot of pleasure by planting Burpee seeds.They are always true to purchase and name,I can always rely on getting a crop.

I used to buy seeds any where and found it did not pay, some times half come upand other times half didn't.Tis true less Burpee seeds are required to plant an acre than any others I have planted,why? because they all germinate and grow,some times think I get more plants than I sew seeds,and better seeds make stronger plants.

Its a pleasure to plant such seeds,its a profit to buy them,there are dolars gained in not having to re-plant because faulty seeds were used,crops ready for market earlier,making a bigger profit.

We can also raise more on the same ground as Burpee peas mature all at once,allowing after-crops to be planted earlier where they were,making more money on the same land.

Very truly,
