"For Prize Contest"

Have purchased several pkg. Burpee's seeds, among them "Burpees Delicious Corn which I planted on Memorial Day. Yesterday being Aug 3 we had company drop in for dinner and was lucky enough to treat them to a rare bite of "Delicious Corn" from a yard in the city Being country folks they were surprised said "They bought seeds from ---- and its just beginning to set was planted 15th of May.

They also picked a beautiful Bouquet of double Dalhias

On their departure they said "We are going to send for some seeds from Burpees to plant inside for the winter months

Had my yard space been larger would have grown numerous other flowers as I am a strong believer that tinkering around the plants drives melancholy away.

I can praise your seeds highly from the only true teacher "Experience" 

But I owe my success to Burpee.
Respt. Yours
