TWO GREAT NEW POTATOES. 



ORIGINALLY IMPORTED FROM GREAT BRITAIN. 



BRITISH QUEEN. 



A grand second early Potato at this time commanding a 

 great deal of attention in the British Isles. It is an extraordi- 

 nary yielder, possesses exceptionally fine table qualities, 

 always cooking dry and mealy with no sign of hollowness. 

 The tubers are uniformly large and handsome in appearance, 

 oval and smooth with very few and shallow eyes; skin and 

 flesh white; has no tendency to disease. As an exhibition 

 Potato we consider it superior to all others. 



During the past two extremely unfavorable seasons this 

 Potato more than justified our faith in its ultimate success in 

 this country. The crops secured were in those cases which 

 have come to our attention truly remarkable. The Potato will, 

 we have little doubt, prove itself the most valuable inter- 

 mediate variety yet introduced. 



% peck 60c; peck $1.00; bushel $3.00. 



IRISH COBBLER. 



A comparatively new extra early sort grown in large 

 quantities in some sections, where it is always the first 

 variety ready for market. The flesh is clear white and 

 of good flavor, always cooking dry and mealy. Skin is 

 creamy-white and sometimes netted, an indication of 

 quality. It is a very heavy, reliable cropper, producing 

 handsome, almost round potatoes very uniform in size 

 and shape and containing very few small tubers. It is 

 several days earlier than Early Ohio and is readv two 

 weeks before Earlv Rose. Peck 60c; bushel $2.00; 

 barrel (165 lbs.) $5.00. 



Carman No. 3 — A standard main crop variety yielding 

 enormously. It is of perfect form, even in dry sea- 

 sons, almost every Potato being of uniform size and 

 shape. It has very shallow eyes, which are few in 

 number. The skin and flesh are white, with no hol- 

 low or dark parts: cooking qualities very fine. 

 Peck 60c; bushel $1.75; barrel $4.50 



Rural New Yorker No. 2 — An intermediate variety of 

 robust habit, and a very abundant yielder, produc- 

 ing well-shaped tubers of slightly oblong shape and 

 very uniform in size. The skin is white and smooth 

 with few and shallow eyes. Peck 60c; bushel 

 $1.75; barrel $4.50 



The Acme Hand Potato Planter is a convenient and useful tool, 7f>Ci 



UP-TO-DATE. 



A new main crop Potato that won the Highest Awards in 

 many of the leading Exhibitions in England during the past 

 few years. It is a remarkably heavy cropper and has a grand 

 constitution, being at all times free from disease. The tubers 

 grow to a uniform size and are wonderfully attractive, with 

 very few eyes, and those exceedingly shallow. The skin and 

 flesh are white. Its cooking qualities are the very best, being 

 at all times dry and floury, and the flavor is excellent. 



Crops of this Grand Potato equal to 20 tons per acre are not 

 unusual. % peck 60c; peck $1.00; bushel $3.00.
