FOR PRIZE CONTEST

"WHAT BURPEE'S SEEDS HAVE DONE FOR ME."

They brought delight in cooperation with God's unwritten Book, begetting love through daily contact with her charms, benefits, [[strikethrough]] and [[/strikethrough]] friendship.

A sower said, "All earth is crammed with heaven" .....Assuredly Spiritual elements inhere in every honorable work and all gardens may be "lovesome things" "[[strikethrough]] the [[/strikethrough]] veriest schools of peace,"[[strikethrough]] but if[[/strikethrough]] Worked solely for material return, or for revenue only, their most valuable asset is undeveloped.

"Make me over, Mother April, when the sap begins to stir," expresses the transforming power existing there; offering joyous work and consequent health to bodies, healing to pessimistic minds -- Spiritual uplift.

As Object lessions: Are Burpee's seeds true? Do they pay toll? During thirty years I found them keeping their producer's convenant and fulfilling their own inherent promise to grow and bear fruit, generously yielding substantial values when given their due. Friends exclaimed of ours, "A beautiful, [[underline]]clean[[/underline]] garden!" and, "I didn't know before vegetables were [[strikethrough]] so [[/strikethrough]] attractive."

Plant, and [[underline]]yourself[[/underline]] work Burpee's -- "Sweet^[[est]] Peas" [[strikethrough]] indeed [[/strikethrough]] and enjoy beauty of color, and of form in [[underline]]straight[[/underline]] rows, and eat them thirty minutes from vines to pot! His sugary carrots eaten raw, [[strikethrough]] and [[/strikethrough]] grated, -- delicious, -- vitaminic! His shell pink asters, crested cosmos, decorative dahlias.

To attain these ends, I cordially commend Burpee's seeds.
