W. Atlee Burpee Co. November 28, 1924 [[underlined]] Extracts from WHAT BURPEE'S SEEDS HAVE DONE FOR ME Contest Letters [[/underlined]] Materially reduced out grocery expense. Lured us to health-giving outdoor exercise. Increased our love for growing things and God's big outdoors. Was educative to the children, especially through their individual gardens. Proved to be a bond of common interest with many old friends and an "open sesame" to several new ones. Gave us something which the whole family could enjoy together as a real vital interest." G.J.Turney, Decatur, Illinois I am proud of my garden. Burpee's seeds have made me new friends, a "common brotherhood of the soil". They have taught me that the name Burpee on a seed package is a pledge of a successful garden. My yard is full of beauty. Beatrice Hope Wilson, 394 Hammond Avenue Aurora, Ill. "Oh, what a shower of delight! Vegetables and flowers, all sorts. It seemed to me that every single seed grew. Passers-by gazed lingeringly at my beautiful wonder garden. Glory, beauty, pleasure, health and comforts it yielded, besides an overflowing cellar." Mrs. Nelle C. Hurst, Hillsdale, Mich.
