EE SEEDS 



The last two years have been, by far, the most prosperous I have 

 ever bad, and the larger business I do, just so much the more liber- 

 ally am I able to treat my customers, so that all become interested 

 in making Maule's Seeds more widely known every year. 



Last season, in addition to distributing $1000 in cash prizes among 

 my customers, I also presented them for trial 53,9u'5 extra pack- 

 ets OF the CHOICEST seeds, worth $5512. This made $6512 in 1886. 

 The season of 1887 I have started the ball rolling with $1500 in cash 

 prizes for premium vegetables, etc., a larger amount than ever 

 before offered by any seedsman in America, and I propose in the 

 way of extra packets, to deal more liberally than ever before. In 

 other words my customers may, in addition to the above $1500 ex- 

 pect at least $8500 in extka packets of choice seeds for 'trial 

 during the coming season of 1887, over and above the amount of their 

 orders. Hundreds of new customers last year wrote me I was the 

 most liberal of any seedsman they ever dealt with. I want to retain 

 this reputation sure. 



FROM all sections North, South, East, and 

 West come reports that such pumpkins 

 as those raised from Maule's Seeds the 

 last- two years were never seen before. At 

 hundreds of county and district, as well as 

 many State Fairs, my customers swept all be- 

 fore them. For 1SS7 I again offer 

 ^Hb*. r^mmi *Ft, As a cash prize for tile 

 flf ^ m largest pumpkin of any 



^Ok, """^ 9 I of tin- following 1!) va- 

 ^JjP W M rfetles that 1m raised 



^^^^ from Meed obtained from 



me. Reports, sworn to by two reliable wit- 

 nesses, to reach, me before October lMt, 1887. 



I will send one packet of each ot the ten pumpkins given on this 

 page for 75 cts.
