Just a word to tell you that Burpee’s Hybrid tomatoes proved the most success- 
ful crop I have ever had. The tomatoes ripened earlier than usual, withstood the 
severe drought in excellent shape, and continued bearing until mid-October. The to- 
matoes themselves were excellent for table and canning. Am recommending them to 
all my friends. Ids IDE Abe
