“Maule’s Direct to You” 


An idea backed by forty-four years of 
successful business, and tested seeds, 
has won for Wm. Henry Maule, Ine. 
the patronage of hundreds of thousands 
of satisfied customers. One year after 
another the sound principles upon 
which the business was founded have 
added other thousands. 

This is probably the largest ‘‘direct to 
planter’? seed business in the United 
States. Asit grew, our knowledge has 
grown. Ourcustomers today benefit by 
a service that was inno way approached 
by what we were able to give in theearly 
days. Development has been to the 
advantage of ourselves and customers. 

The demand of the past few years 
that all land be made more productive 
has brought us thousands of new cus- 
tomers who have won new health, good 


food and more beautiful homes from their efforts.

soil and climate, it is absolutely impossible for any 
seedsman to guarantee the results of seeds, bulbs or 
plants. We, WM. HeNRy MAuvLE, INc., therefore, in 
common with all American Seedsmen, give no war- 
ranty, express or implied, as to the description, 
quality, productiveness or any other matter of any

not be in any way responsible for the crop. We

bility for more than the actual price paid for seeds, 
plants or bulbs. If the purchaser does not accept 
the goods on these terms, they are at once to be 
returned; but we do guarantee that we will use every 
effort to send you the best seeds, plants and bulbs 
procurable, of such varieties as you may order.

« Maule’s Blood Turnip Beet 
The Best of Them All. 

Maule’s Blood Turnip beet has given such excellent satisfaction that it still retains its posi- 
tion at the head of our list, and for years the amount of catalogue space occupied by illustrations 
and devoted to descriptions of this variety, has been unquestionably one of the most profitable in 
our Seed Book. We first gave prominent notice to Maule’s Blood Turnip beet in our catalogue 
of 1889; the sales then were large, but today, 32 years later, they are ten times greater than ever. 
A consistent steady demand from 1 the same people year after year for this variety should be sufficient 
endorsement for all gardeners to know that in planting Maule’s Blood Turnip, they are planting 
as good a turnip beet as can be found the world over, and a variety that owing to its small top 
makes it especially desirable for bunching. Maule’s Blood Turnip beet is very early, nearly as 
early as Egyptian, ready for the table in about 50 days. The color is a rich dark red, and 
shape is globular. It is free from side or fibrous roots, being always smooth. It is excellent for 
forcing for a main spring or summer crop, or for use in winter, as it is a good keeper. It always 
cuts and cooks a rich, dark blood red; is tender, sweet and crisp, and is in every way the 
standard sort for the market or home gardener. Has made a good crop seven weeks from 
sowing. Maule’s Blood Turnip beet has long been regarded as the standard of excellence by] 
more than 70,000 successful gardeners, who plant it year after year in preference to any other. |

84 Detroit Dark Red 

Excellent for the Home Garden or Canning 

This early globe-shaped beet of excellent 
quality is especially esteemed on account of 
its dark red color, which extends entirely 
through the beet, and without the light colored 
Yings seen in some varieties. The medium 
sized beets are smooth and handsome and are 
now being largely used for canning as well as 
for the home garden or market. It retains 
its good quality even after it gets large, and is 
an excellent variety on this account for fall use 
as wellas for spring. Maturing in about 50 days.

the buyers of early cabbages select these attractive heads 
when displayed on the market stalls. Almost anybody 
would pick out one of these solid flat heads in preference to a 
round or pointed headed variety. 

Many of our customers have cleaned off their entire crop of 
Maule’s First Early before they have started to cut Harly 
Wakefield, or Early Flat Dutch. Seed crop very near a total

117 Maule’s Early Flat Dutch 


Large, Solid, Flat Heads 


An excellent second early cabbage, producing large, solid heads of 
uniform shape, flattened on top as shown in the illustration. Fully 
developed heads frequently measure 10 to 12 inches across and weigh 
12 to 15 pounds each. It also is fine grained and of dainty flavor. This 
variety has long been popular among growers, both for home or 
market. The large, flat heads are borne on short stems and are very 
solid. A sure cropper; practically every plant will form a good, solid 
head, which are ready to use in about 90days. It succeeds every where, 
but seems particularly suited to the:South, as it has strong heat 
resisting qualities.

119 Copenhagen 


The Best Early Round Headed 
Cabbage. Stands Longest 
Without Bursting 


Copenhagen Market is certainly a valuable 
early maturing cabbage, producing round, 
hard heads of the finest quality for the table 
or market in seventy-five days. It is the most 
popular early cabbage in the markets of 
Copenhagen, and has become very popular in 
America. Market gardeners here who tried 
it are strong in its praise on account of 
its extreme earliness and solid ten pound 
heads, with a small core and always of 
excellent quality, making it a good seller. 
The plants are short stemmed, producing 
heads almost on the ground. The light 
green colored leaves are medium in size, saucer 
shaped, and are always tightly folded; the 
plants may therefore be set closer than most 
other early varieties. It isa vigorous grower 
and yielder, as are all cabbages from Den- 
mark, and an excellent keeper. A most ex- 
cellent round headed sort for the home garden, 
as wellas for the market gardener whose trade 
requires a largesolid head early in the season. 
Our stock of Copenhagen Market comes to 
us direct from the originator in Copenhagen, 
Denmark which we can highly recommend.

about 75 to 90 days 


127 Glory of Enkhousen 
Early, Round, Solid Heads of Superior Merit 


This desirable cabbage, Glory of Enkhousen, originated in Holland: in 
season it is very early, maturing its heads in 80 days, with heads fre- 
quently twice as large, weighing three times as muchas Early Summer. 
The large sized, ball shaped heads are very firm and solid, leaves being 
fine ribbed and exceedingly tender. Itis a dwarf and compact grower, 
allowing close planting; in fact some of its enthusiastic admirers claim 
it will yield more tons per acre than any other variety on account ofclose 
planting. This is not only a valuable early sort, but it grows so large 
that it can be profitably raised for main crop for Fall use. On account of 
its quick growth, this cabbage is a most desirable sort for market gar- 
deners to set out latein July, after early potatoes or other Spring crops 
are harvested. This cabbage is extensively grown and is extremely popu- 
lar with the market gardeners generally, and especially with those who 
use Our select strain of Danish Ball Head and who have a trade for a 
round, solid head cabbage early in the season. Originator’s stock.

Three Desirable Cabbages 


Late 
118 Charleston Wakefield 


An Improved and Larger Form of Jersey 
Wakefield True Type. 


The Wakefield, with its pointed heads, held 
the leading place among early cabbages for 
seyeral decades, out of sheer merit; and it is 
still in favor with all market gardeners. It is 
so reliable early and so genuinely good that 
nothing can wholly supersede it or drive it out 
of the markets, 

The Charleston Wakefield is an improved and 
larger form of Maule’s Prize Wakefield. It re- 
quires rather more time to reach maturity, but 
it yields fully twice the crop of the original 
Wakefield cabbage. It comes along in a close 
Succession to the earlist cabbage crop producing 
its heads in about 8 days. It is astrain which 
cannot be profitably overlooked by any gardener, 
wheter it is intended fora private garden or to 
be send to market. All the Market gardeners 
near the great Eastern cities plant Charleston 
Wakefield for early cabbage, and there is no 
better early sort. It has a less pointed head 
than its ancestor. 

Charleston Wakefield is good keeper and may 
be planted as a second crop to mature in the 
autumn, if desired. It is a first rate shipper, 
and in great favor with everybody who knows it.

This intermediate sort matures in about 95 days, soon after Early 
Summer, producing much larger heads, of unsurpassed beauty and 
solidity. It has noteworthy compactness of growth, which permits 
close planting. Midsummer is a remarkably sure and uniform header, 
and is one of the most profitable market yarieties. Its a truly fine

Lupton cabbage has some of the best traits of Surehead, with the size 
and general shape of Maule’s Prize Flat Dutch, but is seyeral days 
earlier than the latter. Its growth is particularly strong and vigorous. 
The stem is short, the head is thick and flat, adark bluish green, with 
the outer leaves covering it well across the centre. It is very large, 


solid, and of the most excellent quality, without any features of coarse- 
ness, the yeins and ribs being well developed, but not prominent. 
Matures its large solid heads in 110 days.

Maule’s Frost Proof Cabbage Plants 


WILL DOUBLE YOUR PROFIT. WHY? 
Because they mature heads which can be marketed two to three weeks 
earlier than your home grown plants and you get early market prices 


Maule’s sturdy southern grown cabbage plants are tough and hardy 


They mean dollars to the wide awake gardener 


Our plants are grown, from the best strains of seed, in the south where the soil and climatic conditions are just suited for 
growing tough, hardy, frost proof cabbage plants. Plants are ready for shipment when from eight to ten weeks old, the 
buds are then purple and the outer leaves a reddish brown; when in this condition they can be shipped to territory farther 
north and planted in the open ground a month to six weeks earlier than home grown hot bed or cold frame plants. The top 
of the plant does not grow until your regular spring weather opens up, but the roots grow from the time the plants are set. 
They have stood a temperature of eight to ten degrees above zero without injury; the land freezing or the plants being covered 
with ice, sleet and snow did not effect them. Headed cabbage is ready ten days to three weeks earlier than from any other 
plants. Frost proof cabbage plants may be shipped to any point where they will arrive within four or five days, by parcel 
post, and should be planted four to six weeks earlier than home grown plants. The plants will be somewhat wilted and 
have a hard stunted look when received which will be disappointing to persons who have never used them before. Regard- 
less of their appearance, however, they will produce the results. 

Order early and state about what date you wish your plants sent. We will ship just as near the time desired as weather and 


other conditions permit, but 
PLEASE REMEMBER 


Your order must first be sent from our offices in Philadelphia to our growing station in the south, and it will take several 
days to reach there after wc receive it. Plants cannot. be pulled and shipped in rainy or freezing weather, when wet they 
heat too rapidly. Wesometimes have a week or ten days of continued wet weather which prevents shipment. Your order 
will be accepted with the understanding that you are willing to allow for delays, such as explained above, over which we 
have absolutely no control. : 
READ CAREFULLY BEFORE YOU ORDER 

VARIETIES. Weean supply frost proof cabbage plants only in the following varieties: Early Jersey Wakefield, Charleston 

or Large Wakefield, Early Flat Dutch and Succession.

This excellent cabbage is in yery wide

than any strain of the Late Flat Dutch 
type. In solidity it is almost as hard as 
the renowned Danish Ball Head. ‘it is 
very compact in habit of growth, the 
leaves closely surrounding and overlap- 
ping the head. The shape and appear- 
ance are shown in the illustration.

about 12 pounds at maturity, and the 
heads are uniformly handsome. The

its use for market. 

In quality the Houser cabbage equals 
the best, being very free from the coarse 
ribs found in most late sorts. In fact, we 
would say that the Houser cabbage is very 
well bred, and in the eareful trials and 
comparative tests on our grounds, it has 
shown up excellently with all other late 
sorts. It is a strong, vigorous grower, 
with ability to withstand drought better 
than most varieties. 

Tts true merit is shown by the demand 
for it. It adapts itself to various condi- 
tions of soil and climate. 

As to its keeping qualities, in winter 
storage, we have only to say that it is per- 
fect. Indeed, it is because the Houser is 
so extremely late, maturing in 130 days,

extremely heavy, though not extra large. It can be grown

Prize Flat Dutch 


Well Known and Widely Grown 


This cabbage is as widely grown as any other in 
Y the whole country. Continued care and critical 
selection haye secured a perfectly true stock of 
seed. The heads of our Prize Flat Dutch are 
very large, heavy, solid, flat on top, and ofa bluish 
green color. Our strain is a low growing variety, 
with short stem and comparatively few outer 
Jeaves. The quality is fine and the flavor ex- 
cellent, the heads being white when cut and the 
inside leaves crisp and tender. Our seed has 
always been American grown, coming from the 
celebrated Long Island districts, and whoever 
purchases Maule’s Prize Flat Dutch may be as- 
sured of getting the best. It is everywhere a 
favorite market variety. It matures slightly 
earlier than Prize Drumhead, producing heads in 
about 110 days. Prize Flat Dutch is comparatively 
free from a disposition to burst, and is one of the 
most reliable winter keepers. We think this strain 
will do better under partial neglect than any 
other in the world, possibly excepting Surehead,

Prize Drumhead 


Large, Solid Heads on Short Stems 


Sureness in heading and regularity in growth 
have placed this variety high in the list, and we 
have. no fear of using words of praise too high for 
its merits. It forms very large, hard, solid, flat- 

' tened heads, uniform in shape-and color, and of 
handsomeappearance. It has averyshort stem, 
and is a compact grower. Shortness of stem is so 
characteristic as to be associated with the very 
best strains of this cabbage, and the stock which 
we offer is thoroughbred in this and all other 
respects. This cabbage, like Prize Flat Dutch, has 
so long been an established standard that certain 
peculiarities have been bred into it, and have be- 
come so firmly fixed as to be necessary features 
of growth. It is as natural for this cabbage to 
form a head as to form leaves, and reports of 99. 
marketabie heads from 100 plants are of frequent 
occurrence. Nobody will be disappointed in our 
strain of Short Stemmed Drumhead, for it far 
Surpasses the old-fashioned strains of the same 
name, with heads of deeper and better shape, 
maturing in 120 days. It is a standard sort for 
winter keeping or kraut making, and sells read-

fede Snowball Cauliflower 


Large Solid White Heads. A Sure Cropper 


This standard variety is known everywhere, either in the home garden 
or with the market gardeners. Produces large solid white heads when 
conditions are ordinarily favorable in about 90 days. Averages about 
9 inches and often attains a size of 12 inches in diameter. 

Being one of the earliest strains of cauliflower it becomes one of the 
most popular sorts, either for forcing under glass during winter and 
Spring, or for planting in the open ground. The plants are of compact 
habit, which enables close planting, producing one-third more heads on 
the same space of ground than can be procured from most other sorts, 
excepting Maule’s Prize Earliest. 

__ A desirable variety for sowing in the early Spring, as well as for late 
Summer or for Fall use outdoors. : 2

165 Dry Weather Cauliflower 


Reaches Perfection When Ordinary Sorts Fail 


This desirable strain originated in Denmark, but has been 
fully tested in America with the most favorable results. It pro- 
duces a large, solid, pure white head, maturing in about 95 
days, a little later than Maule’s Prize Earliest. It isin all 
respects a first-class cauliflower, but is especially and pecu- 
liarly adapted to dry situations and to resisting the effects of 
droughts. It will also do well in moist or wet seasons, making 
heads equal to any. Excellent home or market sort.

oMaule’s Ideal Garly Corn 


Do you want delicious corn on your table the 4th of July? 
If so, plant this extremely hardy, early maturing, large eared sort 


We have produced in this early corn a variety which stands alone as a money 
maker. It is in the same class as the Earliest of All sugar corns, considerably 
larger, and, best of all, contains a sweetness equal to most true sugar varieties. 

It has the power of germination under conditions where all others have failed, 
and can safely be planted much earlier than any true sugar corn on account of its 
extreme hardiness. It adapts itself to any kind of soil, either sand or heavy clay. 

It is as large as Stowell’s Evergreen. Cap fodder grows 6 feet; no smail 
item to a gardener; and as a proof of its quality and sweetness, we have a con- 
tinuous call for “Ideal” from our customers year after year. In earliness, any 
Z one growing this pearly white corn will have the crop marketed and the money 
j in his pocket before any of the early sugar corns are ready. Matures in 55 days.

both for forcing under glass and growing outside, for the 
following reasons: 

First. It has an ideal shape, and the handsomest dark 
green color of all cucumbers. Ready to pull in 55 days. 

Second. It is a type of the most perfect size; just what is 
wanted either for the table or market.

\ First for the Table, Market and Pickling 


This widely popular cucumber is as early as Green Cluster. Although early, the fruits are of fine quality and the color an 
attractive dark green. When suitable for pickling, the cucumbers are straight, square ended and very firm. When ready 
for slicing they are 6 to 7 inches long, crisp and of a most delicious flavor. The vines are of extra vigorous growth and pro- 
duce an abundance of fruits, which are fit for the table or market in 50 days. 

Its extreme earliness is, however, its greatest recommendation, making it invaluable. Its earliness and its very high 
quality make it a good variety for both home and market gardens, or for planting in June or July for late pickles.

cavity, cropping ability and shipping quality. It is by far the finest, most delicious muskmelon ever grown. | 


Maule’s Model is an early large melon, maturing its crop of fine, luscious, green flesh melons in 70 days. It is larger 
than Rocky Ford, the average weight being somewhat above two pounds. It has an ideal shape for a fashionable market. 
The interior seed cavity is small, and of triangular or prismatic shape, the seeds being few. ik 

As a tablemelon Maule’s Model cannot besurpassed. In delicacy and quality of flavor it is unexcelled by any variety 
in our list. The flesh is deep and firm, extending from the rind almost to centre of the melon. Rich and highly flavored. |

MAULE’S SUPERIOR WATERMELONS 


‘ CULTURE.— Watermelons do best on light, well drained soils, but there are varieties adapted to heavy loams. The hills should be 8 feet apart 
_ each way, with some well rotted manure in each hill, thoroughly incorporated with the soil. Plant the seed as soon as the weather is really 
_ warm and settled. A packet will plant about 10 hills, an ounce about 30 hills; 3 or 4 pounds of seed to the acre. Allow two or three plants to 

remain in each hill. Ready to use in 60 to 100 days. Fight bugs with Bordo Lead, Key-Cide, Red Wing, Bug Death or Slug Shot. 


395 Tom Watson The Most Popular of All Melons for Shipping 


This melon was an instantaneous success in some of the very best watermelon growing sections of the country. The above illustration was 
taken from a melon sent into our office. It is an average specimen of the stock from which our seed is saved; it weighed 36 pounds. Tom Watson 
is a long, dark, mottled green melon, which at times grows exceptionally large, often weighing from 60 to 70 pounds, but at the saine time one 
of the most prolific melons in cultivation. Although the rind is thin it is very tough, making it a most excellent shipper for long distances. 
The flesh is of most superb quality and intense red in color; matures in 90 days. A desirable melon for both market and home use.

efforts have been rewarded by securing an onion fully as handsome as 
the Prizetaker in every way; of more uniform size, and whose keeping 
qualities are simply remarkable and decidedly superior to the parent 
variety. Six toeight hundred bushels per acre have been no unusual 
yield, and this quantity has been frequently surpassed. Thirty-three

are freely borne, and remain in good condition for 4 number of days. The pods 
are of a dark green color, and measure 4 inches or more in length, being as large 
as Telephone, and equally well filled with luscious peas—8 to 10 or more in a pod. 
The peas themselves are of first-class table quality, and retain their color and 
attractive appearance after cooking. The peas are round and plump, maturing 
in 62days. It isentirely adapted to the purposes of the market gardener, and 
does equally as well in the home garden.

market gardeners have planted the Thomas Laxton in preference to Gradus, to 
their entire satisfaction. Our opinion of Thomas Laxton is that itis as early as 
Gradus, maturing in 52 days; at thesame time itis, ifanything, more productive; 
peas are fully as large, of aricher green color. Planted side by side, it is frequently 
a bard matter to tell which is the better of the two varieties.

Extra Early Varieties 


Maule’s Tomatoes Ready for Use in 80 to 85 Days 


Every garden should have an early as well as a main or general crop of tomatoes. Either for market or home use, the idea of growing 
early tomatoes is to get them as soon as possible and follow up with the main crop, which may be used in many ways and are especially desirable 
for canning. Do not plant in over-rich soil as it will cause an over-grewth of foliage and few fruits. : 

CULTURE.—Sow the seed in February or March in a hotbed, greenhouse or in Shailow boxes in the house in rows 4 to 6 inches apart and half 
an inch deep. When the plants are about 2 inches high transplant to 38-inch pots or into shallow boxes 4 inches apart each way. Transplant 
in the open ground after all danger of frost is past,3 to 4feet apart each way. Cultivate frequently. A packet will produce about 100 plants, 
an ounce about 3,500 plants, enough foranacre. Neponset paper pots, offered on page 175, are ideal for starting tomatoes.

Enormous 
The Largest Red 

The Sweetest of All 

(Deep red.) Maule’s 
Enormous tomato, bred 
by Mr. Miesse, was first 
introduced to the public 
by us under the name 
“Bight to the Yard.” 
Maule’s Enormous, how- 
ever, was not bred merely 
for large size. The name 
was selected from the fact 
that it seemed to apply 
better to this wonderful 
tomato than to any other. 
In comparative trials 
with other sorts, under 
ordinary conditions, 
Maule’s Enormous has 
made a record for both 
quality and quantity, 
while the beauty of the 
fruit makesitan easy and 
quick seller in all mar- 
kets. The fruit is re- 
markably solid and firm.

Resists Drought and Scorching Heat 
Better Than Any Other Variety 


Droughtproof Yellow Dent pro- 
duces handsome ears of good size

largest grains and the smallest 
cob of any Yellow Dent Corn.

a9 Maule’s Improved Mastedon 


The Earliest of all the Large Eared Yellow Dent Varieties 
Has a Record of 213 Bushels of Shelled Corn to the Acre 


It is the largest eared, extra early yellow dent corn; the ears measuring 
9 to 12 inches in length, and from 73 to 8 inches in circumference, with 
16 to 22 rows of grains, and averaging at husking time nearly one pound 
each. Outyields any other variety ripening at the same time. 

It makes a rapid, strong and rank growth, attaining a height of 9 to 10 
feet, often producing 2 to3 large ears toastalk. The foliage is large, 
making fine fodder and is one of the best varieties for that purpose. 

We consider Improved Mastodon the variety to plant where an extra 
early, large eared corn is wanted that will mature in 95 to 100 days under 
favorable growing conditions. It 
makes fine looking shelled corn, 
showing two shades, a golden 
yellow with a white cap. 

There has been a brisk demand 
for this corn for years past, and 
our supply has not infrequently 
been completely exhausted early 
in the season. We regret to be- 
lieve that unscrupulous dealers. 
have sold a great deal of inferior 
or impure seed for Mastodon. Our 
suggestion is, therefore, that pur- 
chases be made only from  re- 
liable neighbors who have raised 
the stock or that orders be set di- 
rect to us at 21st and Arch Streets, 
Philadelphia, for the true seed.

Maule’s Three Permanent Pasture Mixtures : 
Best Adapted for Producing an Abundant Hay Crop or for Pasturage 


It is true beyond all question that a mixture of grasses produces a 
better mowing field and subsequent permanent pasture than a mere 
combination of timothy and red clover. The former will last five times 
as long as the latter. Timothy “runs out’’ in a couple of years or so, 
while a good permanent pasture will last ten or even twenty years. 
This has been frequently and forcibly shown by experience. Our com- 
pleted mixtures are sold in two parts, one containing grass seeds and 
the other clover seeds, to be sown separately, on account of their differ- 
ent weights. The grass seeds may be sown in spring or fall; the clover 
seeds preferably in the spring. In preparing the permanent pasture 


grass inixtures we employ mainly Kentucky Blue, Timothy, English 
Rye, Italian Rye, Red Top or Herd, Orchard, Tall Meadow, Meadow 


Foxtail, Meadow Fescue, Rough Stalk Meadow, Canadian Blue, Bromus 
Inermis or Awnless Brome, Crested Dog Tail, etc. 

In the clover mixture we employ Red, Mammoth, Alsike and W bite. 
A few of these components will disappear in two or three years, but the 
others are absolutely permanent. We vary the proportions to suit the 
different soils.

On page 176 will be found a complete index of the botanical, as well as the common, name of all flowers in this book. 
The different varieties listed on the following pages are designated either as Annuals, Biennials or Perennials. 


Hardy Annuals. Easily raised and suitable for many purposes; 
excellent for cutting; invaluable for bedding, some for color, others for 
foliage effect. They will always be popular with those who want quick 
results with the least expenditure of time and money. Seed may be 
started in the open ground in early spring or sown indoors for earlier 
effect. Plants will flower and die in the one season. 


Half Hardy Annuals. Seeds should be sown in boxesin the house 
or in hot-beds during March or April and the plants set out inthe open 
ground in May. They will flower for the one season and die. 

Hardy Biennials. Sow seed as you would the hardy annual. The 
plants, will not bloom until the following year, after which they die. 

Half Hardy Biennials. Seed should be sown as you would the half

Well Kept and Properly Arranged 


Hardy Peremnials. Seeds may be sown in early spring, or during 
July and August to produce plants that will flower the next season, 
and continue to bloom each succeeding year. Seed of some hardy 
perennials if sown very early will produce plants that will bloom the 
same season. It is unnecessary to give protection to these plants 
during the winter, but it will prove beneficial to the plants if a 
covering of leaves, litter or strawy manure is provided. A hardy bed 
or border, when once established, requires practically no attention and 
will, if varieties have been properly selected and arranged, provide an

Tall or Climbing Nasturtiums 2. 


The Tall or Climbing varieties are well adapt- 
ed for ornamental purposes. They should have 
Sticks or other supports, or may be trained over 
rock-work, trellises, fences, arbors, porches, or 
allowed to ramble over the ground where they 
will bloom profusely from early summer until 
frost. Grow 10 to 12 feet high. Nasturtiums 
prefer a dry poor soil; if given a very rich soil 
they are inclined to produce more leaves and 
less flowers. The seed pods can be gathered 
while green for pickling.

Maule’s Giant Pansies 2essa2. 


OR many years, in fact ever since we have been in business, we have given particular attention to pansy seeds, until 
F we really think our strains of pansies are as good as can be found anywhere in the world. Pansies demand good soil, 

thriving best in a cool, moist but well drained position. Do not plant pansies in the shade of a tree or building as this 

causes straggly plants with very few blooms. Seeds sown in April or May will produce blooming plants the last of 
June, which will continue flowering until the end of the season. For early spring blooming, sow seeds in August and give 
plants protection during the winter. We really think that the results obtained from our pansy seeds have been so remarkable 
that this is one reason why the demand for this beautiful and popular flower increases with us so much every year.

eir flowers 4 to 6 weeks earlier than any other variety of pansies. Full grown plants will winter over in the open ground with but a slight pro- 
on of leaves, litter, ete.. in very cold latitudes, and will begin flowering, so-to-say, under the snow in February and March, when other pans- 
are only forming buds. These delicately perfumed pansies are of good size and will continue to bloom in great profusion until] late sammer,

Maule’s Flowerin: 
Bulbs, Roots, Etc. 


Everyone succeeds in growing plants from bulbs or roots. With but little care, excellent results may be obtained. After flowering, many 
bulbs, if given a period of rest, may be re-planted, when the previous year’s display will be repeated. This of course applies to varieties 
that are not hardy. The hardy roots of phlox, iris, ponies, etc., when once planted will live out-doors for years without being disturbed. 
A good supply of bulbs or roots may be obtained at a yery moderate cost, for the first cost is practically the only expense. 


Important. Your attention is called to the fact that all orders for bulbs, roots, ete., are shipped on receipt. Should you wish us to re- 
serve the bulbs for future shipment, your instructions to that effect must be clearly specified at time ofordering. This 

applies especially to bulbs ordered during the winter months. We pack bulbs as carefully as possible and guarantee their safe arrival in good 

condition. With every order for bulbs a copy of our little pamphlet ‘‘Bulb Culture” will be enclosed. It contains many helpful suggestions. ~

Maule’s Large Flowering Cannas 


For bedding purposes, cannas stand at the head of the list. No more satisfactory plant could be found; they succeed in all parts of the 
country, in any kind of soil, but will, of course, do better in rich soil, well prepared. In recent years, cannas haye been greatly improved. The 
old ‘Indian Shot Plant” was grown principally for its massive foliage; the flowers were insignificant. The newer types have flowers six to eight 
inches across, in great clusters of varied and rich colors, borne continuously allsummer. We list the most distinct and desirable varieties 
recently introduced. Our cannas are grown on our farm at Newfield, N. J., and we send out dormant roots in strong divisions from these field- 
grown clumps. The height given for each canna varies with climate and care.

Spring Tooth Magic Weeder Hoes 


The best garden tool for the amateur gardener. It does the work 
with half the labor, saving both time and strength and turning work 
into pastime. Each tine is provided with a coil near the shank, thus 
acting independently and making it work very easily, obviating all 
danger of clogging or breaking. The tines are formed so as to enter 
the ground on the order of a cultivator or garden plow, lifting and pul- 
verizing the soil, loosening and rendering friable, subserving moisture, 
so essential to the rapid growth of plants. The Magic Weeder Hoe is 
also provided with a steel blade for cutting weeds or making a furrow.
