"What Burpee's Seeds have done for me."
   Spring time is Burpee time. This fact was impressed on my mind as a child, for with the coming of spring came Burpee's seeds. I supposed Burpees was the only seed house as mother never ordered from any other. Mother told me that she could depend on getting just what she ordered, so she always sent to Burpee's. 
   The days were counted from the time the seeds were ordered till they came. And how I enjoyed helping plant, seeing how evenly I could get them, for I learned that the seeds do not bear false witness for Burpee's seeds always grow. I loved to read the description of each, knowing they would be as Burpee stated.
