Grow More Vegetables This Year 



At the time this book is being printed, a large part of the world is at war. 

 Many of us remember the last war and the great food shortages. Now, with 

 more countries at war or taken over by another, there is more reason to 

 realize that there may be a great food shortage this year. 



Canada, South America, and other countries are buying big quantities of 

 seed from us as they cannot get any seed from Europe. We must help them 

 but we must also take care of our good friends in this country. 



We want to tell all our customers frankly that there may be a very severe 

 shortage of some kinds of vegetable seeds. You should order your seeds 

 early this year. If you are not using all your ground, plan on having a bigger 

 garden than you have ever had before. Make your garden produce more. 

 A few dollars expended for seeds and an hour or two of work each day' will 

 give surprising results. Even a back-yard garden can furnish a good supply 

 of vegetables for the family. 



We urge you to send in your order as soon as possible. And don't forget 

 to include flower seeds — they add so much to your garden and to home 

 decoration and family enjoyment. 



This is not a "sales" message, but sound advice to our friends. We hope 

 you will favor us with your order; but in any case, plant a garden and add 

 to this country's food supply. 



Yours for a Successful Garden in 1941, 



4015 Clarissa St. 

 Philadelphia, Pa.

■"^ *■■ I In Regards fo the Seed Supply 



There is a very great shortage of some varieties of 

 vegetable seeds, such as Carrot, Cauliflower, Onion, 

 and Spinach. For this reason it has been necessary to 

 advance prices on some of the varieties in this book, 

 but many prices are the same as last year, and in 

 every case the packet price is the same or lower 

 than last year. 



Because of the great demand for vegetable seeds 

 and the short supply, we urge you to order soon — 

 right away if possible. 



We have a supply of the very best quality seeds 

 here at Maule's and we want to take care of all our 

 old friends and many new customers if possible, but 

 please order early.
