dealers only, who buy to sell again." These 

 books represent the forty-first year of tlie Bur- 

 pee business, but the first year under the man- 

 agement of the new generation of liurpees, Da- 

 vid and AV. Atlee, Jr. Therefore the young men 

 preface the Annual with these words: "For 

 forty years "W. Atlee Burpee used this page to 

 convey his word of greeting to the thousands 

 who stood so loyally with him in the develop- 

 ment of the greatest mail order seed business in 

 the world. He started as a boy of 18 and 

 worked faithfully "until the end, that he might 

 serve the American i)eople with the Ix-st seed it 

 is possible to produce. He wrote last year's cat- 

 alogue in his own hand, and It had gone to press 

 when he died — November 2(i. W. Atlee B\iri'ee 

 grew seeds not only to sell, but to grow again. 

 He never considered his work a business, tint a 

 vocation. He wanted no one to pay for his seeds 

 unless they grew and then only what was just 

 and fair. The following quotation is character- 

 istic of the spirit so well Implanted by our late 

 founder— it is this splendid spirit of service 

 that governs the Burpee business: 'Tlie Burpee 

 business is buildcd not for tlie present only, but 

 with an outlook to the future. A business that 

 has no vision of the future, or the object of 

 W'hich is mere money-making, would not be 

 worthy a life's work.' During the last forty 

 years the house of Burpee has introtluced more 

 varieties of flowers and vegetables that are now 

 in general use than have any three other firms 

 combined. As sons of the founder, we promise 

 the same real service, the same standard of qual- 

 ity, the same careful attention to every detail — • 

 a continuance of the iHilicy laid down by our 

 father." Tlie size of the Annual has been in- 

 creased to 204 pages, as compared with last 

 year's 182. Thirtv Burpee varieties of stock 

 are beautifully illustrated in colors. 



D. Landreth Seed Co., Bristol, Pa.— A com- 

 nmation catalogue, or two catalogues bound in 

 one. A 24-page wholesale list is followed by an 

 08-page illustrated retail list. This, says the com- 

 pany, forms a "convenient arrangement under one 

 coyer, as, by turning to the retail pages Indi- 

 cated in the wholesale list, the merchant can at 

 once find a description of the variety in the 

 retail list, with the indicated retail value at 

 the date the catalogue was sent to the printer." 

 Another notable feature of the book is that the 

 prices in the wholesale list are all quoted accord- 

 mg to the cental system, and the list is pre- 

 ceded by a table which "enables anvone to find 

 a near equivalent of pound prices of beans, corn 

 ana peas by the bushel." The Landreths state
