[[red underline]] What Burpees Seeds have done for me. [[/red underline]]

My first experience as a "Farmer" was during the war. Burpee Seeds were recommended and I purchased some $10.00 worth of seeds to plant, a plot of about 40 x 100. Being "green" (A City man) I asked for your pamphlets of instructions, which I followed with excellent results. Subsequently, I purchased, a large farm up here, and Burpees Seeds are used exclusively,for all purposes, this being the, direct outcome of my war garden. I have, always found that not only do your seeds yield handsomely, but can  be,depended upon to produce,an excellent crop even under adverse conditions. I also find, that for earliness and, quality there are no better seeds to be had, for I, am marketing seasonable produce from 1 to 3 weeks  earlier thru others farmers here.
The most remarkable feature of Burpees Seeds is their ability to produce uniform results which combined with the large yields make it both a pleasure and profitable to grow them. and it is, always with pride that I mention your seeds when the excellent [[stamped in purple ink]] AUG 14 1924 [[/stamped]] produce is being disposed of in the public market.
