 the best of the winter sorts. It Is of Chinese origin, but is now thor-

 size, quality and flavor. It resembles California Mammoth Winter, but

 your seeds for 13 years, and find none equal to them.

 your seed as being the best we have ever planted, and 

 produce the finest vegetables. 



Mrs. Addie Aubry, Norman, Okla.— I cannot speak 

 too highly of your garden seed; they were even better 

 than i expected. I had the finest onions, earliest peas 

 and the largest cabbage. I planted my dahlia seed in 

 March and have some fine flowers. 



F. M. Kelly, Washington, Kan.— I have used your 

 seeds for about 15 years, and can truthfully say they 

 give the best satisfaction of any I ever tried. I am a 

 market gardener, and will plant no seeds but Maule's. 

 The Houser Cabbase is excellent for this locality. The 

 Florida Favorite Watermelon is the best we can raise 

 for quality, but the Sweetheart Melon is of larger size, 

 and brings more accordingly.

 the pleasure of showing my neighbors and friends the 

 finest assortment of vegetables in this part of the 

 country, and they were all complaining about their 

 seeds not coming up. After seeing my success they 

 wanted to l<now wliere I purchased my seeds. I, of 



i course, told them from Maule; that Maule's Seeds once 

 grown always grown; they Inave been used by our 

 family for years, and eachyear'they are better. Vege-

HORSE-RADISH SETS. 



Horse-radish is always in demand in winter and spring. The culture 

 is by sets or root cuttings, as it seldom seeds. These sets are planted 

 in rows or furrows 2 to -3 feet apart and 15 to 18 inches apart in the rows. 

 The set should be placed in a i^erpendicular position, with crown 3 to 6 

 inches below surface. Horse-radish delights in a deep, rich soil and 

 requires but little cultural attention. It makes large top growth, giving 

 weeds small chance. Near to markets the horse-radish is a most im- 

 portant crop. Price of sets, 25 cents per dozen; 90 cents per 100, by mail, 

 postpaid. By express or freight, 60 cents per 100; $4.00 per 1,000.
