SEED DEPARTMENT 
“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. 
“Burpee’s Seeds grow and are the best that grow.” We carry 
Burpee’s Garden and Flower Seeds and you can purchase them from 
us as reasonable as you can get them elsewhere, and sometimes much 
cheaper.

Pkt. “SLb; 
Delhi, N. Y., Jan. 4, 1941. Please send me 4 oz. of your genuine Blue Ribbon 
Sprout Seed. I got 3 oz. 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. A atch
