THE MAULE SEED BOOK FOR 1913 



All Properly Labeled. My Se- 

 lection, Shipped After May 1st 



For 



$1,001 



I made this offer for the first time in 1904. My customers are so delighted with their 



bargains and tell so many of their friends about the liberality of the offer that each 



season I dispose of a large number of these popular $1.00 Bulb Collections. The 

 proposition in a nutshell follows: Every year. May 1st, I have several thousand bulbs on hand, for it is an absolute impossibility to sell out everything. 

 This year I propose to distribute at least part of this surplus among my friends in the following manner : Send me $1.00 any time before May 1st, and I 

 will book your order for 100 choice bulbs, my selection, to be filled in rotation as received, €ifter May 1st. In no case v^ill bulbs be sent whose retail 

 value is less than $3.00. January orders vnil be filled first, then February, then March, etc. The first orders will receive the best selection, although the 

 April orders ivill receive three times their money's worth. The February orders may get ten times vfhat $1.00 >vould buy if purchaser made the 

 selection. Many of the bulbs will be worth 10, 15 and even 25 cents each. The package will go by express, purchaser to pay transportation charges. 



Remember, please, that this offer is for surplus bulbs only, and hence I must select the varieties. Packages 

 vary in size, and I do not prepay transportation charges. Buyers -who prefer to do so can send 25 cents 

 . extra, and I will deliver either at your postoffice or express office without additional cost.
