Mrs. Leah Walker, Mapleton Depot, Pa.—I must say 
I always get the best of seeds from your house. Your 
Earliest of All and Success are as fine tomatoes as I 
have ever seen. From your All Head Early Cabbage 
I raised heads weighing 19 pounds each; Houser is a 
splendid late cabbage. 
Mrs. C. Harrison, 1820 Division St., St. Louis, Mo.—I 
was well pleaged with the seeds and bults received 
from youin the spring. \ou have the fullest packets 
and the best seeds tbat will germinate and grow. You 
would be astonished at the number of seed firms I have 
bought from and not had half the seeds to grow. 
L. Jozwick, Brenham, Texas.—We are more than 
pleased with your seeds; we raised cabbage from your 
Marblehead that weighed 10 pounds per head. We 
believe your seeds are the best in the United States. 
R. C. Lyons, Riverland, Fla.—I must Say your seeds 
have given perfect satisfaction. Out of 17 acres of 
peppers planted in this neightorhood, your seeds are 
the only ones that have come up. I and all mny friends 
I ordered seeds for have good stands. 
Mrs. Henry Race, Cawker City, Kan.—We are more 
than satisfied with your seeds. and would use no others, 
Your Black Seeded Simpson Lettuce headed 16 inches 
in circumference, and was of crisp and of most delicate 
flavor. We had the four kinds of sweet corn you 
offered at 25 cents, they eared three and four on a 
stalk, and of fine flavor. I have planted your seeds 
for several years, and do not think a seed has failed to 
come up. 
Mrs. Abbie Davis. Roachdale, Ind.—I must speak a 
word of praise for the seeds I bought of you last year. 
My garden was the nicesst in the neighborhood and 
two weeks earlier than any other. I furnished my 
neighbors with Maule’s Hanson Lettuce and peas. My 
mother always used your seeds as long as she lived and 
always took first premium on garden produce at the 
Fairs. I planted seed from another firm. last_year, 
my Wm. Henry 
Maule garden was very much better than the other.
