POTATOES. 



TEN BUSHELS CUT TUBERS TO THE ACRE. 



We deliver all Potatoes f. o. b. cars, and 

 they are shipped at purchaser's risk. 



Red River Early Ohio — The most popular 

 Potato in this country. Eastern stocks of 

 it are run out so badly that in order to get 

 renewed vigor and purity we have them 

 grown in the Red River Valley, famous 

 for the excellent quality of the Potatoes 

 it produces. One has only to see the 

 stock to at once realize how superior it is.

NEW EXTRA EARLY POTATO 



"EPICUKE." 



An imported Extra Early Potato that only 

 a few years ago sold at fabulous prices in 

 England, and is to-day the most popular 

 variety in the London market. To supply. 

 the demand hundreds of carloads of this 

 sort are used daily during the earliest sea- 

 son in London. It is an enormous cropper, 

 six to eight hundred bushels to the acre 

 not being an unusual crop. "We are con- 

 vinced that the Epicure is by far the best 

 Extra Early Potato that has ever been 

 grown here. It comes in ten days ahead 

 of Early Ohio, and in productiveness easily outdistances 

 any of the old early sorts. One grower says "the Epi- 

 cure is not only ten days earlier than Early Ohio, but it 

 yields three times as many large sized tubers." The 

 Potatoes are uniform in size, skin and flesh white and 

 of excellent flavor. The vines are few, but robust and 

 vigorous. y 2 peck $1.00; peck $1.75; bushel $5.00 



Snowflake Junior — Resembles the old Snowflake in ap- . 

 pearance and in cooking qualities. It is, however, muck 

 more prolific and has the further merit of being the 

 nearest to BUG-PROOF of any Potato we have ever 

 grown, the bugs only attacking it after all other varie-

ties in sight have been disposed of. As an all-round 

 family or market Potato, -we consider this one perfect. 

 It is handsome in appearance, grows to a large size, 

 clear 'white, cooks evenly and mealy. The tops are re- 

 markably strong, growing upright, color dark green.

White Early Ohio — In quality, productiveness and every 

 way the same as Red Early Ohio, except that the skin is 

 white. Peck 50c; bushel $1.50; barrel $3.75 



Early Rose — A standard early Potato of fine quality and 

 very prolific. Peck 50c; bushel $1.50; barrel $3.50 



TWO NEW ENGLISH POTATOES. 



BRITISH QUEEN. 



A grand second early Potato at this time commanding a 

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

 ordinary 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 considerit superior to all others. 



BRITISH QUEEN. 



During the past extremely unfavorable season, 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 introducd. 



V 2 peck $1.25; peck $2.00; bushel $6.00. 



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. V 2 peck, $1.00; peck $1.75; bushel, $5.00. 

 Carman No. 3 — Is of perfect form, even in dry seasons, 

 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 hollow or dark 

 parts; cooking qualities very fine. Peck 40c; bushel

Rural New Yorker No. 2 — An intermediate variety of ro- 

 bust habit, and a very abundant yielder, producing 

 large well-shaped tubers of slightly oblong shape and 

 very uniform in size. The skin is white and smooth 

 with few and shallow eyes. Peck 40c; bushel * 1 - 35 :
