NOTICE. 

 Edward Tiley having received several letters wishing to 

 know if his new seedling "Champion Kidney" Potato is the 

 same as the one advertised by Mr. Joseph Wilson, of 

 Ipswich, under the name of "The Early Champion Ashleaf," 

 begs to say that it is not, for he purchased the whole stock from 

 the Grower, who obtained it in the first instance from the seed of 

 the Potato Apple, and has never parted with any of the produce 

 but to him. L. T. feels confident that it will give the greatest 

 satisfaction to all purchasers who may favour him with orders 

 for the same .
