General List of Veecetables. 
New readers of this Seed Book will notice there are no spe- 
cial pages devoted to Novelties, which are generally found in 
most seed catalogues. I have discovered that my customers 
prefer to have all the various varieties of Cabbage, Onion, 
Asters, Pansies, etc., ete., grouped together, for in this manner | 
they can be referred to more readily. Nevertheless, although | 
there are no special novelty pages, this Seed Book is without | 
doubt the greatest catalogue of Specialties ever published by | 
an American seed firm. Everything worth growing, old or 
new, will be found listed; novelties of my own, as well as 
those of other houses at home and abroad. My greatest Spe- 
cialties, as my old friends well know, are those I have offered 
for many years; for instance Maule’s Harliest of All Tomato 
has been a leader for eighteen years; sales for the last two) 
years of 15 cent packages amounted to 41,490 packets, an | 




average of cver 20,000 packets a year, and in larger quantities 
orders for 20 and 25 pounds from a single customer were not 
uncommon. In the spring of 1909 I sold to growers in Sunny- 
side, Wash., alone, 110 pounds of this tomato for their own 
planting. Is this not a point worth noting? Many of my 
competitors boom a variety for four or five years, then drop 
it; the leaders in this book are in many eases 10 to 20 years 
old. My Perfection Muskmelon was first named and intro- 
duced by me in 1884, yet last year at $5.00 per pound If hardly 
had enough seed to go round. Look up other catalogues; the 
new ‘‘Creations’’ of 1900, that had full pages then, in many 
cases will have a very few lines in 1910. This is one reason 
why I can so emphatically announce— 
Your Money Back if Not Satisfied.
