BURBANK'S 1920 NEW CREATIONS IN SEEDS 
culinary purposes, almost as bland and pure as olive oil. It requires the minimum of culture, 
and thrives under adverse conditions of soil and climate. In China the sunflower seed like 
pumpkin seeds have medicinal value; in Russia the nioujik eats his roasted sunflov^'er seeds as 
the boys do peanuts. Some day we may have them "salted" as part of the menu, or sold as a con- 
fection. — Weekly California Slate News Leller. 
A New Pepper The "Burbank" "Pi'om Mexico some ten years ago, I re- 
ceived Irom my collector a pepper of 
great size and fine flavor. From this I have developed the largest pepper ever 
grown; fruits nine inches long and four inches through with a thick sweet meat 
have been grown, and when placed upon exhibition people could not believe they 
were peppers. At the great Panama-Pacific Exposition or at the recent Land Show 
no peppers one-half as large were exhibited. The plants are early, very produc- 
tive, and as easily grown as any other. 
Packet, 25c; ounce, $2. 
ViNELAND, N. J., Oct. 28, 1918. — Your "Burbank" Peppers are great in size, shape and bountiful 
in production. M. R. 
Ottumwa, Iowa, Jan. 13, 1919. — Your sweet peppers were very productive and I think that 
four plants must have produced twelve dozen peppers. A. T. G. 
Pendlbton, Ohij. — The peppers are bigger than pint fruit jars and still dark green and growing 
larger. These dahlias and i^eppers are absolutely shock producing, astonishing productions. They 
make a man wonder what in the name of heaven we are coming to anyhow. H. S. G., M.D. 
Ukiah, Cat.., Feb. 3, 1919. — Your new pepper was simply grand. E. V. J. 
A.YER, Mass., Jan. 12, 1920. — Raised some of your peppers two years ago and had great success. 
Some weighed a pound. Mrs. C. S. D. 
Pepper — "Anaheim Hot" ^ productive, long, red, cayenne pepper. 
Packet, 10c; ounce, 60c. 
The New Burbank Field Corn This is the earliest and most productive of 
any field corn ever grown in the West. Verg 
dwarf compact plants which usually produce two very large long ears, filled with 
large, firm, yellow kernels. Corn growers who wish for CORN not stalks have 
found that the "Burbank" fills the crib. Per pound, postpaid, 50c; by express, 
per pound, 40c; ten pounds, $3. 
A New Popcorn "Pure Gold" The best of all, the most productive of all. 
Three and four long, beautiful, pure 
golden, well filled, uniform ears to each stalk. "Pure Gold" produces crops rival- 
ing even the best field varieties in yield. The kernels pop pure white, and larger 
and sweeter than any other kind. 
Packet, 10c; ounce, 20c; pound, 50c. 
Hkmet, Cal. — Your popcorn "Pure Gold" is by far the best popcorn ever tried in this disiricl. 
I started with one of your little packets two years ago and now it would be hard to say what 
acreage is to be planted another year. C. K. M. 
Amisridge, Pa., Feb. 2-1, 1919. — Last year I planted some of your popcorn "Pure Gold" and I 
was more than pleased with it, and as to the quality, I think it is the finest I ever tasted. My idea 
is to raise "Pure Gold" popcorn, say 50 acres, to sell to the wholesale popcorn dealers.

The New Bantsun Corn The early Bantam Sweet Corn, introduced by 
W. Atlee Burpee & Company several years ago, has 
been quite universally known as the best of all early sweet corns. The ears 
are short and only eight rows to the ear. By most rigid selection for fifteen 
years I have produced an Early Bantam more uniform in all respects, far more 
productive, and with TEN AND TWELVE ROWS of corn to each ear. 
Packet, 20c; ounce, 40c. 
I also offer an improved eight-rowed strain. Packet, 10c; ounce, 15c; pound, 60c. 
Tacoma, Wash., Nov. 9, 1919. — Your very kind letter of November 4 leaves us under obligations 
to you and would thank you to ship us what you can spare of each variety of Bantam Corn, as 
therein mentioned. This year we had to buy some Bantam Corn from other seedsmen, and it 
was frightfully poor, and we have never had much luck with anything but your seed. 
N. P. Co. 
Warren, Ind., Oct. 21, 1919. — My "Golden Bantam Corn" was fine and I sold the first green 
corn by a month that was to be found in the country. I am truly indebted to you for your 
wonderful creations. Mrs. C. W. 
Tacoma, Wash. — Y'our new Improved Golden Bantam seed corn gave us excellent results this 
year. N. P. Co. 
Long Island, New York.— A larger ear than the ordinary and consequently a third more valu- 
able. It will sooner or later replace the old variety. J. L. C.
