BEST OF ALL BEAN. 


H. L. Clark, Doxey, Okla.—I desire to show my appreciation of our dealings with 
each other, by saying I have been a constant user of your seeds since I received my 
first order of you, some 10 years ago, as they are far superior to anything I ever 
obtained from any company. I have always found everything perfectly true to 
Dame and almost every seed planted brings forth a strong, hardy plant. Please 
accept my hearty congratulations, not for honesty alone, but for the great care and 
skill in selecting out the very best that could be obtained anywhere or by any firm. 
Please accept a hearty handshake. Best wishes to you. 
J. H. Williams, Schenectady, N. Y.—I have been using your seeds, bulbs, etc., for 
five years; have been in contests with ——,——, —— and other seeds, but yours 
them. I have always ordered Maule’s Seeds since I have been married (9 years) 
and am well pleased with them, always find them true to name and they come up 
and grow well. Ordered seed for my neighbors several years ago, and had I the 
time could get up a large club order every spring. 
Mrs. Z. A. Webb, Dukedom, Tenn.—Accept our thanks for all past orders. I 
shall always send where I know the seeds are true toname. Last year I divided 
my order because I thought another firm was so much cheaper, and they certainly 
were cheap, as I never saw such a mixed lot of seed. I said I would always, from 
that time on, patronize a man that was reliable, as it is a saving in the long run. 
The only trouble I have in selecting your seeds is the many good kinds, I cannot 
decide between them. 2 
have always given better satisfaction than any others. The flowers are of superior 
beauty, and there are more seeds in the packages. Your dahlias and coleus from 
seed this year were something grand. : 
Mrs. W. A. T. Murrey, Wills Point, Tex.—I like the change in your catalogue 
very much; it is much more convenient in selecting seeds. Have wondered why 
you didn’t have it so arranged before. Want to say a good word in behalf of your 
seeds. My father ordered your seeds 15 or 20 years and was always pleased with 
Francis M. Salsberry, Calcutta, O.—The seeds we had from you in 1908 proved all 
O. K. We had the finest garden in this section of the country, and other gardeners 
complained of everything burning and drying up; but we never had a better gar- 
den. We made from just our vegetables over $1500.00, and everyone that saw them 
said we had the finest crop they ever saw. I told them we got the seeds from 
Wm. Henry Maule.

Cc. G. DuMond, Walton, N. Y.—We sowed 
seeds from two or three different houses the 
past season alongside of yours, and yours 
were far superior; in fact our vegetables were 
fine, better than we could have expected, as 
the season was exceedingly dry..To show you 
how good the vegetables were we raised from 
your seeds, my father and I took in premi- 
ums from the Delaware Valley Agricultural 
Fair $150.75 in cash from vegetables grown 
from your seeds. 
J. M. Jobnson, Winnsboro Texas.—Your 
Immensity Lettuce is the finest I ever grew.
