Gentlemen:-

What Burpee's Seeds Have Done for Me

Some one has said everybody has some special thing they like to do better than anything else or in other words they have a hobby. My hobby is gardening.

Employed in an office I realized the need of recreation. Last winter plans were formulated for a garden where I could grow plenty of fresh vegetables for home use and for profit. My plans were put in effect and I have a very nice garden.

After determining the size of the plot and what to plant, the purchase of seed was the next big question. After careful study I decided on Burpee's seed, some of which was purchased direct and some locally.

Although just in the midst of the season we have grown plenty of vegetables for home use and sold enough to pay expenses. With the garden full of fall vegetables doing nicely I expect to realize a handsome return for my work which in a large sense is a pleasure.

Burpee's seed have given excellent results. Next year I shall again place my order for seeds with W. Atlee Burpee Company and shall commend their use to all my friends interested in gardening.

Very respectfully submitted,
