Burpee's Seeds Grow 
OR forty years we have rendered faithful service. For 
forty years we have tried to make each year's service 
more nearly ideal. This untiring effort has built for 
us not only the World's Largest Mail Order Seed 
Business, but also a world-wide reputation for effi- 
cient service and undisputed leadership. 
Much more opportune than anything we ourselves may say about 
Burpee Quality Seeds, are the many remarkable things our thousands 
of customers and friends have said and continue to say about them. 
These customers return to us year after year, not because seeds can- 
not be found elsewhere, but because of our superior quality and service. 
Any one who is not thoroughly satisfied with the products raised 
can have his money back any time within the year, for such is the 
guarantee that protects all who plant seeds bought from Burpee 
of Philadelphia.

Burpee's Annual 
"The Leading American Seed Catalog'' for 1916 is unlike any other

and the Finest New Burpee Spencer Sweet Peas; also the New Gladi- 
oli, Fordhook Hybrid. This Silent Salesman is mailed free. A post
