OLDS’ SWEET PEAS 
March 3, 1936. 
“I had fine luck with your seeds last year ex¬ 
cept where plants drowned out because of wet 
ground. Had Cosmos and Woolflower four and 
five feet tall, and fine Sunflowers from your free 
seeds last year. Please tell customers to transplant 
Celery Cabbage as it works best. I had many 18 
inches long, hard as rocks, and weighed two and 
two and one-half pounds apiece.”
