Valuable Potatoes for Sale. 



THE subscriber offers the following valuable potaloes for 

 sale. A particular description of some of them will be 

 found in the last volume of Transactions of the N. V. State 

 Agricultural Society for 1851. This society awarded him a 

 special premium at the State Fair at Ulica, and also voted 

 him $100 at their meeting at Albany during the present 

 month, as encouragement in these experiments. 



No. 1. Rough Purple Chili, imported in April, 1851, at a 

 great e.xpense. For yield, hardiness, and table quality it has 

 no equal. Price $10,0H per bushel. This potato yielded me 

 last year, ninety-two from one by measure; while to Mr. Del- 

 afleld, of Geneva, it yielded one hundred and twelve from one 

 by Weigh i- 



No. 2. Seedlings originated in 1849. They are hardy, pro- 

 ductive and good for table use. Price $7,t0 per barrel, or 

 $3,00 per bushel. Many of these have been tested this year 

 under the eje of the State Society, and yielded from twenty 

 to sixty-four from one, by weight. 



No. 3. Seedlings of 1852. These consist of many choice 

 kinds selected from 4i:00 varieties, and consisting of eleven dif- 

 ferent families. They were selected with especial reference 

 to hardiness, fine flesh, yield and mode of growth in the hill. 

 They afford a basis for the entire renewal of the potato crop 

 in our country. Price $10,(i0 per bushel. 



No. 4. Potato Sted from tke seed-ball. These seeds con- 

 sists of two kinds,- that produced by No. 1, and the choice 

 sort in No. 2, above,— and are the same that produced the 

 seedlings of 18S3, — No. 3, above. As they have thus been 

 tested so they are warranted to produce a large proportion of 

 hardy, productive and shapely tubers. 



Price $1,0U per paper, the paper to contain more than 1000 

 seeds, to be sent to the purchaser by mail, post paid, and ac- 

 companied with direciioiis forcultiv. tion. 



Each luircel of tubers ordered, will be put up with cases, 

 the different sorts kept separate, and the whole forwarded to 

 the directions of the purchaser by express, railroad, canal, or 

 as otherwise directed, as soon as the weather will admit, and 

 at the expense and risk of the purchaser. 



0= Purchasers are advised to take No. 1 and 2, for immedi 

 ate field crops, and No. 3, as a source of new and valuable 

 sorts. 



O" Persons passing through Utica, are requested to call 

 and see specimens at the store of WM. BRISTOL <fe CO., 108
