MAULE'S 



"Maule's Direct to You" 



An idea backed by forty-four years of 

 successful business, and tested seeds, 

 has won for Wm. Henry Maule, Inc. 

 the patronage of hundreds of thousands 

 of satisfied customers. One year after 

 another the sound principles upon 

 which the business was founded have 

 added other thousands. 



This is probably the largest ' 'direct to 

 planter" seed business in the United 

 States. As it grew, our knowledge has 

 grown. Our customers today benefit by 

 a service that was in no way approached 

 by what we were able to give in the early 

 days. Development has been to the 

 advantage of ourselves and customers. 



The demand of the past few years 

 that all land be made more productive 

 has brought us thousands of new cus- 

 tomers who have won new health, good 

 food and more beautiful homes from their efforts. 



The Maule Seed Book for 1921 is a compendium of knowl- 

 edge for the gardener, experienced or amateur. What it offers 

 by way of advice and instruc- 

 tion has been gathered from 

 our experience of forty-four 

 years. Every item has been 

 put to test in actual practice, 

 just as our seeds are tested. 



Follow the book closely in 

 planning the garden and send 

 in your seed, bulb, etc., order.

Once Grown-Always Grown 



AH Maule's Seeds 

 are tested 



Every lot of seed that comes 

 to the Maule warehouse is 

 tested for germination. This 

 guarantees the seed will grow 

 if it is proiDerly planted and 

 cultivated, soil and weather 

 conditions being favorable. 



The trial of new seeds and the development of older strains 

 are continually going on at our extensive trial grounds at 

 ISTewfield, N. J. 



The exacting nature of these tests have won for Maule's 

 Seeds the reputation "Once Grown Always Grown." 



Special Advice 



Even the amateur gardener will find 

 in this book all the general information 

 needed for his work. The experience of 

 the entire Maule force of experts is at 

 the service of our customers to answer 

 special inquiries. Attention is called to 

 the Planting Table, page 2, and Spray- 

 ing Schedule, page 3. 



Attention to Orders 



In building this business we started 

 out to give the same close attention to 

 the small order as to the large one. We 

 have held to this policy and our small 

 orders of one year are constantly be- 

 coming our large orders of the next. 



What our Prices Mean 



You will find the prices for Maule's 

 seeds, bulbs, plants, trees, implements, 

 etc. , quite reasonable. We ask that the 

 buyer compare them with others and also keep in mind the 

 Maule Four-Leaf Clover Guarantee as published below. We 

 are selling not only seeds but our tests, our special attention 



to orders, our expert advice, 

 our forty-four years of experi- 

 ence, all behind a dollar's 

 worth of seeds, etc., for every 

 dollar we receive. 



Our Retail Store 



For the convenience of 

 customers in the Philadel- 

 phia territory we opened 

 last year a retail store on 

 the first floor of our eight- 

 story building at 21st and

 returned ; but we do guarantee that we will use every 

 effort to send you the best seeds, plants and bulbs
