Market Gardeners will do well to consider when making up their orders, that in addition to having: 

 the advantage of these low prices, THAT THEY ALSO ALL HAVE THE PRIVILEGE OF COMPE 

 TING FOR THE «1000 I OFFER FOR THE PRIZE VEGETABLES OF 18S7. 



MAMMOTH IRONCLAD WATERMELON. 



Grows uniformly to a larger size than any other variety known. It 

 will yield a far greater bulk and more A 1 marketable melons than any 

 other Another wonderful recommendation is the fact that they are 

 Iron-clad. They have frequently been dropped three feet, and 

 even from the shoulders of a man without bursting or showing 

 any bruise. Plucked when ripe, or left on the vines alter fully ripe they 

 keep in fine condition for one month. It is of the most delicious and 

 sugary flavor. The heart is very large; the flesh next to the rind is fully 

 equal to the heart in luscious taste. The flesh is never mealy, but always 

 remarkably solid. In selecting at random hundreds ol melons from a 

 large field not asingleone but cut hard and solid. .Mammoth Ironclad 

 is suited for all climates. They ripen with the Cuban Queen. Planted 

 May 101 h the first ripe ones were picked August 10th, and melons 

 taken from the same vines until October 1st. They can be allowed to 

 remain on the vines one month after they are ripe. In 1882, melons 

 were taken in the first of October, and were, kept in good condition lor 

 Christmas dinner. In conclusion, I need only say that Ironclad surpasses 

 in each and every quality every other variety. I again otler §30 tor the 

 largest Mammoth Ironclad grown from seed purchased of me. 



The prize melon of 1886 weighed 128 lbs. See page 9. 



CAUTION —Jicwnre of /tot/us xeed offered at low prices ; I offer the di- 

 rect headi/uarteis seed for 1887 at the following prices .-— 



Pkt, 15c; 2 pkts., 25c; 0z., 20c; 1 lb., 50c; Lb., $1.5 0. 

 MAULE'S ROUND DARK-RED RADISH. 



The market gardeners' radish, as it sells everywhere at a better 

 price and ahead of all other reil radishes. Its rapid growth, beauti- 

 ful shape, and above all Its truly magnificent color at once recommend 

 It Sow Dark Red once and you sow it always; as great an im- 

 provement on the Scarlet Turnip as it is possible to make. Seed Is worth 

 double the price I ask for it. Pkt., 10c. ; oz., 20c. ; y t lb., 40c. ; lb., gl.25. 



200 POUND MAMMOTH SQUASH. 



I think I can Justly claim to have the best strain of this squash In the 

 market, certainly there is no better. Last Nov. Mrs M. Price, of Colfax, 

 Iowa secured the first prize of 825 for raising one of Maule s Mammoth 

 »» ■•• ««« «"■>'••■" and very prod""tiv« 

 , 81.00; lb., 83.00. 



Squashes weighing 187" lbs. It^ls of fine quality and very productive. 

 Profitable for stock. Pkt., 10 cts.; oz., 30 cts.; M lb. " 



RUBY KING PEPPER. 



LARGEST OF ALL; MOST PRODUCTIVE OF ALL; BEST OF 

 ALL. I : to 18 Peppers G to 8 in. long and 4 in. thick on a single 

 plant at one time. Last season I furnished seed of Ruby Kingtoovel 

 6.000 gardeners, who found it ahead of everything they had ever tried. 

 Every one who has ever grown peppers will want Ruby King, and yon 

 need it. Tills new pepper attains a larger size than the Spanish 

 Monstrous, and is of different shape. They are remarkably mild and 

 pleasant in flavor. Uncqualcd by any other variety. They Can hi 

 sliced and eaten with pepper and vinegar, like tomatoes, and make • 

 very pleasant and appetizing salad. Pkt., 15 Cts. ; oz., 60 cts. 



LAXTON'S EVOLUTION PE/ 



Introduced in America for the first time last year, and it has eo 

 to stay. Evolution grows 3 to 3% feet high, is of a very branching ha 

 and bears continuously an abundant crop of magnificent pods, soi 

 containing as many as 12 peas. From a single sowing has continued 

 bearing as long as' three months, hence why it is so frequently call 

 "The Everlasting Hearer" by those who have raised them. In flavo 

 Is unusually rich and luscious, the fine large peas fairly melting in I 

 mouth. Sure to call forth favorable comment front all who see it, whet I 

 in the garden or on the table. Pkt., !•"> cts. ; i| t.. so cts., post-paid. 



MAULE'S PRIZE POTIRON PUMPKIkV 



THE LARGEST OF ALL, as it has grown to simply immense pnl 

 portions when given rich soil and extra cultivation. 1885 was beate\ 

 out of sight In IKStt, for, whereas In the former year 100 lbs. was the weigi' 

 of the premium pumpkin, last November Mr. John H. Mason, of Unio 

 City, Mich., secured the 850 prize with a mammoth weighing 248% lb. 

 It Is one of the varieties sure to carry off all the honors wherevt 

 exhibited. It lias salmon-colored skin; flesh, bright yellow; fin' 

 grained, and of excellent quality. Put in a few hills of Potlron th; 

 year and see tost bow large you can grow a Pumpkin. I ai 

 confident you will surprise yourself. I again offer $50 for the larj 

 est pumpkin raised In 1887. Can 248%1bs.be surpassed? Ivery mu' 

 doubt It. Anticipating a large demand for seed of this wonderfi, 

 pumpkin, I solicit early orders. Pkt., 16 C; oz., 40 c; % lb., 81.25. 



N. B.— The seeds taken from the 248K lbs. prize specimen, I will furnis 

 so long as they last at 10 cts. each or 3 for 25 cts.
