They are using Burgess’ PELLETED 
Vegetable and Flower SUPER SEEDS, 
““Miracle-Coated’’ with a new scientific 
treatment which protects and nourishes 
seed and seedling. 
PELLETED SUPER SEEDS are 
‘“Miracle-Coated’’ with layers of nour- 
ishing and protective materials. NU- 
TRIENTS to promote early growth. 
INSECTICIDES to protect from in- 
sects, worms, birds and rodents. HOR- 
MONES to stimulate early plant devel- 
opment when it is most important. FUN- 
GICIDES to prevent ‘‘damping off’’ 
and other soil and seed-borne diseases. 
PELLETED SUPER SEEDS are easy 
to plant because the coating makes them

MICHIGAN STATE COLLEGE 
A long-keeping Sweet Span- 
ish Onion. Flesh is pure white, 
very fine grained, crisp, juicy 
and so mild and sweet it is best 
for eating raw. (Pkt. 20c) (4% 
oz. 55e) (oz. $1.00). 
PELLETED 
Bright _red, 
big enough to handle. Good seeding 
means that little, if any, back-breaking 
thinning is necessary. 
PELLETED SUPER SEEDS cut 
down on weeding because seedlings 
break through early, ahead of weeds. 
PELLETED SUPER SEEDS elimi- 
nate root disturbance, because so little 
thinning is necessary. 
PELLETED SUPER SEEDS increase 
germination in the soil, because their 
coating protects against wet and cold, 
and also maintains needed moisture un- 
der dry conditions. 
All in all, as one of our customers 
writes: ‘‘They just can’t help but 
grow.” 
We recommend them to you. They 
are a little higher priced, but more than 
worth the extra money. 
NOTE: All Pelleted SUPER SEED va- 
rieties are described in greater detail 
elsewhere in this catalog. These varie- 
ties can also be had unpelleted.
