For Prize Contest

In my garden on the crest of a hill is a little six foot drill of sweet peas planted with the seeds of Burpee's Orchid - Flowered collection.

This small plot of vines furnishes a prize winning bouquet for my rooms every day, and, several days three gorgeous bouquets of the sumptuous blossoms besides the large numbers I have given my friends.

I, one day, picked a "Renown" which had eight blossoms; and several stems measured fifteen inches.

They all possess a unique beauty and fragrance.  In spite of the dry hill, the vines promise a profusion of blossoms until frost.
