MAIL OUT ZINNIA SEEDS

The Bank of Ipswich has mailed out 2000 large envelopes this week containing zinnia seeds to their friends and customers. The envelope reads: the efforts of the Womens Federation of Ipswich this city is known as the ‘Zinnia City’ of South Dakota.

The Bank of Ipswich wishes to encourage the growth of this gorgeous flower as means of beautifying the yards, gardens, window boxes and fences of our community-and sends these seeds to you with its compliments.

The directions are then given and it also states if your friends or relatives desire a package of seeds the bank will gladly mail them one.
