i more than any other. Unsurpassed in fine 

 cooking qualities. 



the best early Potato we have ever seen. It re- 



ibles Crown Jewel in appearance, but of larger size 

 I very much superior quality. It is a strong grower 

 h very strong tops, comes into use fully as early as 

 ly Sunrise, yielding, however, a much larger crop tban that 

 iety, and has the further merit of being a first-class 

 per, and may be depended upon to remain in good 

 idition without sprouting until very late in the sea- 

 L. II growa in rich, hlacl< loam It will produce a v^ry heavy 

 p of handsome, large tubers of very fine quality. And not 

 I least of its good qualities is the fact that it Is almost

CABMAN NO. 3. 



J 



Conceded to be the Best Main Crop 

 Potato oa the market. The nearest 

 Bug-proof Potato known. By far the 

 largest Cropper, with clean shallow 

 eyes. Cooks very dry and mealy. 



Resembles the old favorite 

 Snowflake very much In appear- 

 ance and in cooking qualities. It 

 is, however, much more prolific and 

 has the further merit of being the 

 nearest to BUO-PROOP of ony Potato 

 we have ever grown, the bugs only 

 attacking it after all other va- 

 rieties in sight had been disposed 

 of, and then only in very small 

 numbeis, so that they could easily 

 be taken care of. As an all round 

 family or market Potato, in size 

 and shape, we consider this one 

 perfect. It Is handsome in ap- 

 pearance, grows to a large size, 

 clear white, cooks evenly and 

 mealy, and possessing that desir- 

 able flavor peculiar to the Snow- 

 flake. The tops are remarkably 

 strong, growing upright, color 

 dark green. Peck, 50 cts.; bushel, 

 $1.50; barrel, $4 00. 



Mr. Carman in his potato trials 

 on the Eural New Yorker trial 

 grounds in 1896, found It by far 

 the largest yielder of any variety 

 grown, yielding at the rate of 

 645% bushels to the acre. 



Lakeside Champion — A late white variety, maturing along 

 with Burbank and resembling In appearance the well- 

 known Beauty of Hebron. It is, however, longer and 

 larger than that variety, very productive and remark- 

 ably fine grained, possessing the finest keeping qualities. 

 When cooked they are nice fiavored, dr.y and mealy. 

 It is a strong bug-resister, and does remarkably well on 

 thin, poor land. Peck, 40 cts.; bushel, $1.25; barrel 3.00 



The Bovee— An extra early Potato of more than ordinary 

 merit. It is a large yielder and remarkably vigorous. 



The vines are dwarf and stocky, and the tubers grow 

 close together in a bunch close up to the vine, all being 

 of good marketable size. It is earlier than Early Ohio. 

 Its cooking qualities are equal to the best; always white, 

 dry and meal.v. Peck, 40 cts.; bushel, $1.25; barrel 3.00 



Cartnan No. 3 — A seedling raised by Mr. Carman, which In 

 many respects resembles the well-known and popular 

 Rural New Yorker No. 2, but is destined to supersede 

 that well-known variety. It 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 extremely white, with 

 no hollow or dark parts; a handsome Potato and enorm- 

 ously prolific; cooking qualities very fine. Peck, 40 cts.; 

 bushel, $1.25; barrel 3.00
