BUTTON'S 



DISEASE-RESISTING SEED POTATOES. 



Some years ago the Potato crop was a source of annually increas- 

 ing anxiety. The old standard varieties were slowly but surely gravi- 

 tating to a condition of worthlessness. They fell an easy prey to disease, 

 or became so unfruitful as to be scarcely worth planting, and there was 

 .growing poverty of flavour. Change of soil or district arrested the down- 

 ward tendency for a time, but the only hope of restoring robustness, 

 fertility, and flavour, lay in the initial vigour known to be characteristic 

 of seedlings from well-selected crosses. Years of patient labour and 

 thousands of experiments have enabled us to introduce new sorts, which 

 have won for themselves a wide reputation, and for our house the 

 following encomium in the Gardeners' Magazine. 



"Messrs. Button & Sons have a vantage-ground of their 

 own. for they have sent out a series of varieties that have 

 become renowned as 'disease re sisters'; and although it is 

 slow work to produce and prove Potatoes for this purpose, 

 they have, by steady application and most exemplary 

 patience, secured sorts peculiarly adapted for fie d culture, 

 and to take the market afterwards. As a matter of fact, 

 Messrs Sutton & Sons stand alone as the distributors of 

 original and high-class varieties."

 without a rival as a Disease-resister.
