^[[#4653]] ^[[Ans 8/28/24]] ^[[AUG 15 1924]] Morgan Park, Ill. Aug. 12, 1924. For Prize Contest. The results from Burpee's Asters seeds have meant so much to me, that I want to tell you about it. We have bought your vegetable seeds for years, and always have the best garden in this locality. Last year I ordered some of your fancy aster seed including the beauty asters. I tended them carefully and had the most wonderful bed ^[[of]] Asters imagineable. My neighbors all raise just the common single Aster, and my immense bed of 400 plants with blooms as large as Chrysanthemums, were a wonder to every one. The wire fence around our lots was all mashed down by people leaning ^[[against]] it to view my Asters.
