Formerly the famous Burton Seed Company Farm, comprising 160 acres of the most fertile land, located 3 miles outside of Denver. 
I N ORDER to maintain and produce High Quality Seed, extensive trials are necessary. We 
now own and operate the above farm and in addition, we own and operate, with our affiliate 
ed companies, in excess of 6,000 acres of land devoted to extensive trials and the production 
of seed and vegetables. We carry on extensive trials and work with the United States Depart' 
ment of Agriculture in experimenting and testing new varieties, especially lettuce. 
Prices 
Last year we priced all Seed, 
Nursery Stock, etc., very low. 
However, in face of the fact that 
this year our production costs have 
somewhat increased, yet in going 
through this catalog you will note 
further reductions in prices on most 
items. In fact, this year we are sell¬ 
ing the highest quality seed and 
nursery stock at the lowest prices 
since we started in business 25 years 
ago. 
Extensive trials of different vegetables to find those best adapted to Western soils and 
conditions. 
Notice to Buyers of Field Seeds 
Quantity prices on field seeds are not stated for the reason that 
they cannot be accurately determined at the time the catalog is 
printed. As field seeds move in larger volume than garden seeds, 
stocks and markets are constantly changing. We, therefore, issue 
price lists to meet these conditions and they will be mailed to in' 
terested parties upon request.
