MAULE'S 



This cut is an exact illustration of my trial 

 gardens. They are used each year in testing 

 all the standard vegetables, as well as many 

 novelties sent me for trial from all parts of 

 the world. They are under my own special 

 supervision at all times, and I natter myself r 

 know just exactly what I send out, and thus 

 am able to state so positively that Maule's 

 Seeds are not surpassed by any on the face 

 of the globe 



Should you receive any K 

 extra copies of this Cat- S 

 alogue. I wish you would * 

 consider it a r i - mi: I re- 51 



quest from me to make up 

 a club for Maule's seeds. 

 Tins you can more rapidly Jj( 

 by having two or three copies X 

 to pass around among your neigh- -j 

 bors, than if you had only one. However, if you And 

 that you have not the time to make up a club. I will 

 esteem it a particular favor if you will hand *\ 

 them to your friends who have not receiv ed a copy, g 

 and whom you know desire to purchase seeds next p 

 Spring. Sotneofmv verv best orders la-l season came d 

 from Catalogues distributed in this way. and I do not J 

 believe I have ever lost anything sending out each - 

 year a few thousand extra copies to my friends to 

 hand around among their neighbors who want good ^ 

 seeds. I hope all will place them where they 2 

 will do the most good, for this Catalogue has cost g 

 me an immense amount of thought, time and labor 1 

 In preparing it, and a large amount of money to pub- |H 

 lish. I am of course very anxious not a copy g 



shall be wasted but that enrrwu will brine
