Seed Department 
‘“Burpee’s Seeds grow and are the best that grow.” We carry Bur- 
pee’s Garden and Flower Seeds and you can purchase them from uS as 
reasonable as you can get them elsewhere, and sometimes much 
cheaper. 
“STERLING STRAIN” 
Follow the mark of ‘Sterling’. We are always looking for the 
best strains of seed and where we find a superior one we place the 
sign of ‘‘Sterling’’ on it thus (S). All other seeds listed are direct from 
Burpee unless otherwise noted.

Delhi, N. Y., Jan. 4, 1941. Please send me 4 oz. of your genuine Blue Rib- 
bon Sprout Seed. I got 8 of you last year and did not have enough plants so 
bought some of another strain and they did not have any sprouts on them worth 
picking. The Blue Ribbon had most wonderful sprouts, never had nicer sprouts 
since I began to grow them. 
Should have sent my order before now. Can send any time you wish between 
now and March lst. dl ASE
