The Burpee Collections 

 of Spencers 



The Burpee collections advertised below 



are the choicest yet offered. Such values 



would be impossible even with us, had 



we not increased our acreage in the 



Beautiful Lompoc ("Little Hills") Valley, 



California. Here, under the direct 



personal care of the Resident Manager 



at our FLORADALE FARM— "The 



Home of Flowers" — we had the past 



season one hundred and eighty acres of 



Sweet Peas alone! We hold today the 



largest stocks of Re-Selected Spencers 



in the world.
