. Burpee's farm annual for 1900. Nursery stock Pennsylvania Philadelphia Catalogs; Vegetables Seeds Catalogs; Flowers Seeds Catalogs; Bulbs (Plants) Catalogs. THE NEW BURPEE BUILDING, Nos. 475 and 477 North Fifth Street, and Nos. 476 and 478 York Avenue, PHILADELPHIA, PA., January i, 1900. "Quality before Quantity/' This should be the watchword of every seed buyer. All honest seedsmen (and most seedsmen are honest) sell "seeds that grow," but more important than mere vitality is the quality of the parent stock. There is great difference in quality. No other American growers and but few in Europe have such extensive trial grounds as those conducted year after year at our famous Fordhook Farms. Here all seeds are tested thoroughly, not only for vitality, but also for quality of the products. By many thousands of trials, repeated each season,—in greenhouses, frames, and the open fields,—we know absolutely the truth of our motto that Burpee's Seeds Grow and are the Best that Grow It is impossible anywhere to get better seeds, while it is equally impossible to get good seeds for less money. There are other catalogues larger and more showy than The Farm Annual for 1900. And yet as the only salesman of the largest mail trade in the world, and from the care taken to tell the plain truth, it is pronounced "the leading American Seed ; We hope to have your order this season, and with hearty thanks for the liberal patronage of the past year, remain' Very truly yours, FORDHOOK FARMS, Doylestown, Bucks Co., Please note that these images are extracted from scanned page images that may have been digitally enhanced for readability - coloration and appearance of these illustrations may not perfectly resemble the original W.
