32 Giant Green Soy Bean 
Giant Green brings soy beans 
into the northernmost states and 
high altitude regions where an 
early maturing bean is absolutely 
necessary. This sturdy, swift ma- 
turing strain is ready for use often 
two weeks ahead of Bansei, and a 
month in advance of Funk De- 
licious. The plants are short (12 to 
18 in.), extremely rigid and up- 
right, and immune to practically 
all diseases and insects which com- 
monly attack garden beans. Mex- 
ican bean beetles, bacterial blight, 
and mosaic are absolutely impo- 
tent in contact with it. 
In spite of its earliness the seeds 
of Giant Green are large size. 
655 Jubilee } Orange Te 
Jubilee was an instant success 
with the thousands of gardeners 
who grew it upon our recommen- 
dation last year. As you can see by 
the photograph, it is technically 
as near to perfect as a tomato 
grows. What you can’t see is its 
glorious orange color, but you may 
be sure it is brilliant—the color 
of the brightest oranges. 
The meat is solid and thick, and 
yet it brims with juice. Orange 
juice! The seed cavities are small 
and inconspicuous. The fruit 
weighs 6 ozs., is globe shaped, 
smooth, relatively free of cracking 
and other deformities. 
6 Siluer Cress Bantam Com 
Silver Cross Bantam enters its 
third year in the Maule catalog 
with the most impressive record 
of any variety we have ever intro- 
duced. In just two years it has not 
only taken the lead over all other 
white kinds, but it actually out- 
sold every yellow variety as well. 
Here’s why. It’s the tenderest 
corn you ever put in your mouth 
It’s sweet, flavorful, and irresist- 
able. It continues to be delicious 
at an age that most corn is in- 
edible. 
A brand new vegetable in the 
“greens’’ class. Tampala grows 
best in hot weather and greatly 
_ outyields spinach, the vegetable it 
may some day displace. 
Plants grow 2 ft. tall, and have 
long, light green leaves which are 
held high above the ground, safe 
from the grit that is so distasteful 
in spinach. The flavor is very mild, 
and most people who have tried 
it prefer it to all other greens. 
Pods con- 
tain two fat 
beans which 
retain their 
green color 
even after 
maturity. The photograph on the 
front cover shows Giant Green in 
the green vegetable stage; the 
photograph accompanying this de- 
scription shows the ripe beans. 
To hasten final maturity, refrain 
from picking any pods from part 
of the row during the green vege- 
table stage. These reserved plants 
will reach maturity far ahead of 
those from which some pods have 
been taken. Pkt. 15¢. 
Jubilee 
plants are 
short stem- 
med, stiff, 
compact, and 
do a good job 
of protecting the fruits from the 
sun. They yield long and well. 
The foliage holds better than most 
tomatoes, and the fruit color de- 
velops evealy and completely. Ma- 
tures in about 72 days. 
Don’t pass by Jubilee! It pos- 
sesses every worthy tomato char- 
acteristic, plus something to make 
it stand apart—a wonderful new 
orange color. Pkt. 15¢; 4 oz. 60¢; 
VY) oz. $1.00; oz. $1.85. 
Pil amt's 
grow 6 ft. 
tall, are very 
uniform, stiff 
stalked, and 
wilt resist- 
ant. Ears are 8 in. long with 12 or 14 
rows of broad, glistening white kernels. 
Reading this description doesn’t really tell 
about Silver Cross Bantam at all because

perlative terms years ago. The only way you can 
appreciate it is to try it yourself. Ready in 86 days
