The correct option for formatting the titles in the sentence is:

Dear Editor of the Springfield Times-Courier, I am writing because your article "Local Elementary School Grows A Garden" made several errors.

In this option, the name of the newspaper is italicized to indicate it as a title, and the article title is enclosed in quotation marks, which is the correct format for citing articles.
