W. Atlee Burpee Co.

Gentlemen;
My experience with Burpee Seeds has been as follows.
Gardening with unselected seeds on a plot of 50' x 300' I sold about $75.00 worth of Vegetables a year.
Upon the recommendation of a friend I started to use Burpee Seeds, my average since then has gone up to better than $150.00 a year. 
These figures are taken from a set of books showing all of my sales.  This increase has been due partly to the higher percentage of germination of Burpee Seeds but mostly to the better quality of vegetables.
