SINCE 1889 Maule’s Seeds have not been sold to dealers, consequently, very few seedsmen offer my Prizetaker Onion as 
‘‘Maule’s Prizetaker’’ or any other vegetable of the many I have introduced in the last 30 years under the 
name of ‘‘Maule’s.’’ But what does happen in many eases, some of the best things I have put before the American public 
are often listed in other catalogues under different names; for instance: Maule’s Perfection Muskmelon, which I named 
and introduced in 1884, is today likely more generally known as Princess than under its true name, viz: Perfection. I 
cite this one instance in order to demonstrate the fact that there are too many seedsmen in this country who secure, through 
their customers, some of my specialties, and not being as conversant with Maule’s Seeds as they should be, think they 
have gotten hold of a brand new sort, whereas, as a matter of fact, I have been offering the same variety for years.
