The Greatest Test of AH 



No business in the world depends so com- 

 pletely on quality as the seed business. Nothing 

 is so disheartening to a gardener as tiie failure 

 of seeds to grow. After preparing, cultivating 

 and anticipating the results, it is exceedingly 

 aggravating to find that the seed i-efuses to ger- 

 niiuate. This is the reason for the old adage: 

 "a disappointed seed customer never returns." 



Wliat a splendid tiibute to the quality of 

 Maule's seeds is Maule success over a period 

 of forty-five years. Quality has brought cus- 

 tomers bacli year after year for more. Many 

 Maule customers have purchased Maule 

 Seeds for over a quarter of a century. And 

 quality has attracted new customers. Wm. 

 Henry Maule, luc, is now the largest "direct 

 to planter" seed business in the United States. 



It is well to rely on tills 45-year-old test of 

 success in supplying seeds. 



A Health Book, Too 



The Maule Seed Book for J!)22 is really a 

 health guide. Gardening seems to get a man 

 Just a little "closer to nature" — a little nearer 

 to the soil — than anything else. And Science 

 is constantly finding new proof that a wide 

 variety of vegetables is the roadway to good 

 health. Many vegetables, especially .Spinach, 

 are rich in "vitauiines" — a newly discovered 

 food element tliat is essential to euergy. "Eat 

 more vegetables," that's the advice of diet- 

 icians. This booli provides an ample variety 

 for health. 



All Maule's Seeds Tested 

 Practically 



The testing grounds for Maule's seeds are lo- 

 cated at Newfleld, N. J. Here the trial of seeds 

 and the development of newer strains are con- 

 stantly carried on. 



Every variety of Maule's Seeds is practically 

 tested in the grounds at Newfleld, and every lot 

 of seed that comes to the Maule warehouse is 

 again t&sted for germination. 



The exacting nature of these "control tests" in 

 a deciding factor In Maule quality which in turn 

 has been a deciding factor in Maule success. 



Small Orders Appreciated 



The customer who buys but a dollar's worth 

 of Maule Seeds is as welcome and receives the 

 same painstaking attention as the buyer who 

 purchases In hundred dollar quantities. The 

 Maule business has grown to its present size

 of service and helpfulness to all.

 Implements have always been unusually rea- 

 sonable, quality considered — thanks to the 

 Maul e "Dlrect-to-the-planter" Idea. Maule's 

 Seeds are more than "seeds," they represent 

 years of research, expert attention and Infin-
