BURPEE'S SWEET PEAS 



NEW WINTER FLOWERING SPENCERS 



The coal problem is one of great concern to tbe com- 

 mercial florist, and there appears to be no alternative, ex- 

 cept to produce such crops as can be grown with the 

 smallest amount of heat. Sweet Peas can be successfully 

 grown under conditions that would not allow production 

 of other popular flowers. We recommend to our florist 

 friends that thev sow Sweet Peas under glass for a com- 

 mercial winter crop. Sweet Peas are the logical paying crop 

 for the coming winter. They may be grown with very 

 little heat.
