"What Burpees Seeds Have Done For Me"

Thousand times the alloted words would not begin to express the benefits derived by planting Burpee's commodities upon the Estate of Joseph McReynolds Unexpressable pleasure in seeing 95% of seeds come and develope into extraordinary plants, 
bearing in profusion blooms perfect in size and color. Cannas 100% Lawn incomparable.
So beautiful is the estate that the United State Dept. of Agriculture have taken moving pictures of the place to encourage the beautifying of the Home Grounds

The planting of Burpee's commodities have increased my business 100% as they have given me an advertising medium I have never before had

It pays to use Burpee's Seeds and Bulbs for Burpee's Seeds (are in truth) the Seeds that grow.
