''Hfl^It "ttflEvfife:— In presenting you with our 59th annual catalog, 

 we hope you will think, as we do, that it is the best which we have ever 

 issued. We have taken great care to make it so. There is an absence of 

 all sensational novelties, but ALL THE STANDARD WELL TRIED VARIE- 

 TIES of vegetable, field and flower seeds are offered in attractive form. 



For the most part prices remain the same as in 1914 and 1915. This 

 is especially true of seeds in packets and by the ounce, in some few 

 instances, in larger quantities, on Bush Beans, Carrots, Onions and Spinach 

 an advance occasioned by extremely short crops of seed has been neces- 

 sary. We had large and favorable contracts abroad, most of which have 

 been fulfilled, and this has enabled us in many cases to give our customers 

 the benefit of old prices. 



Much is being written every day in the magazines and newspapers 

 upon the advisability of reducing the cost of living. In no way can it be 

 better accomplished than by clearing up the waste places on the farm 

 and in the garden and planting them with vegetables. A lew dollars ex- 

 pended in seeds, an hour or two of labor each day, will give surprising 

 results. Even the back yard of a city or suburban residence can be 

 transformed into a productive source of supply for the family. 



Please give spcciai consideration to our CLUB OFFERS. We publish 

 on page 3 the names of those who won the cash prizes in 1915. By 

 comparatively little effort upon your part you may be a winner in 1916. 

 IT IS WORTH WHILE. You will be surprised how much you can ac- 

 complish in securing these orders, by little work. IT PA YS. 



CPPr\C Wc have only one quality, the BEST. We spare no money, care or labor in growing our seeds, in 

 ^CdUi^ testing them upon our extensive trial grounds (illustrated at bottom of page) and in again testing 

 them as to their germination before shipping. Unless they come up to the highest standard on all these tests THEY 

 '\RE NOT SHIPPED. That is why we have upwards of 500,000 customers on our books today. 

 CJCDXIt^P We have the most complete and best equipped seed warehouse in America, which enables us 

 3i.l\lrlWC to handle all orders with promptness and despatch, but our idea of SERVICE is not fulfilled 

 I we simply receive your money and ship you the best seeds procurable. It is PARTLY fulfilled, but we believe 

 t is BETTER FULFILLED when we give you an absolutely square deal, when we leave nothing undone which we 

 jan do to send you the best seeds, and when we help you with any difficulty or problem with which you have to 

 contend. For this reason we want you to consult us freely (without expense to you) if you need help or informati6n 

 tvith respect to your farm or garden. We maintain a large and efficient staff to answer such inquiries. 

 CtJ^^pCC We are not in business for ourselves alone, but to assist YOU if we possibly can. We can 

 3 C/ w v^C3tD have no permanent success unless YOU also succeed. It pays us to GROW the best seeds, 

 mt better still it pays you TO PLANT THEM. We have added some 40,000 new customers to our books during the 

 )ast two years but we do not count that "success" unless we continue also TO HOLD THE OLD ONES. This we 

 )ropose to do by LOOKING AFTER YOUR INTERESTS even more carfully than we look after our own.

Please send in your orders EARLY if possible. We are always greatly rushed during March and April. 



Wishing you every possible success for the coming year, and assuring you of our appreciation of your esteemed 

 )rders, we are Faithfully yours, WM. HENRY MAILE, INC.
