"Spencer" 



Sweet Peas 



"SPENCER" SWEET PEAS are a great specialty with us! We were the first to grow the seed in America — 

 the stock having been entrusted to us before introduction, even in England, of the original COUNTESS 

 SPENCER. We have grown "the original Beauty" and its many "sportive" children with painstaking care 

 each season since. There are but few other growers who can supply an equal assortment of TRUE RE- 

 SELECTED "SPENCERS" that are uniformly of such choice quality. 



You should try sweet peas from fall sown seed and thus obtain a bountiful supply of the choicest flowers to 

 offer for sale Decoration Day and during the June commencements. 



You can buy so-called "Spencer" Sweet Peas at half our prices — but the result will be only disap- 

 pointment — and when in flower you will surely admit that you would gladly have paid EVEN DOU- 

 BLE OUR PRICES to have had the BURPEE— QUALITY of the TRUE SPENCER TYPE!
