EARLY VARIETIES. 
«“BARLY NORTHER.” Several days earlier than the Early 
Rose, and equally prolific; a most desirable sort. It is a strong, 
vigorous grower, and the potatoes are bunched well together in 
the hills. In shape it resembles the Early Rose; the eyes are 
few and shallow. Its table qualities cannot be excelled, cooking 
dry and floury, whether baked or boiled. Seems to do well 
everywhere. (Seecut.) 60c. peck, $2.00 bush., $4.00 bbl. 
““The Early Norther Potatoes I planted last spring have proved to_be the 
best I have ever had, both in quantity and quality.’ 
“Your Early Norther Potatoes I got of you last spring have done splendidly 
for me. JI think them just perfect.” 
THE ‘‘BOVEHE.” (See Novelties, pages 24 and 25.) 1 1b. 35c., 3 lbs. 
80c., 5 lbs. $1.20, postpaid. If by freight or express, deduct 8c. 
per lb. $1.50 peck, $5.00 bush., $10.00 bbl. 
QUEEN. A grand potato of recent introduction, closely resembling 
Beauty of Hebron in appearance, color, size and shape, but is 
much earlier and a heavier yielder. 60c. peck, $2.00 bush., $3.75 
bbl. 
ROCHESTER ROSE. Of recent years the Early Rose has not 
done well in some sections. The Rochester Rose, which we now 
offer, is a seedling of the Harly Rose, and is an improvement in 
every respect. It willaverage larger in size, is not quite so early, 
and is a much heavier yielder. 60c. peck, $2.00 bush., $3.75 bbl. 
HENDERSON’S EARLY PURITAN. One of the most valuable 
early varieties, entirely distinct from all other early sorts, the 
skin being nearly pure white. It cooks dry and floury, and is 
unequalled in quality. Awarded the medal of excellence at the 
American Institute Fair. (See cut.) 60c. peck, $2.00 bush., 
$4.00 bbl. 
“From the one peck of Early Puritan Potatoes that I purchased from 
you last spring I dug 18 bushels.” 
“In the spring I bought one peck of Henderson’s Early Puritan Potatoes 
from you. They were planted on my Island Farm on April Ist and dug July 
16th. The yield was 33 pecks. They are large, smooth, and could easily have 
been dug a month ago.” 
‘‘Our potatoes from your Early Puritan were the very finest potatoes I | 
have ever eaten. They kept finely, though every one around lost by rot.” 
| EARLY OHIO. Tubers almost round; flesh solid; cooks dry and 
mealy; very early. 60c. peck, $2.00 bush., $4.00 bbl. 
EARLY ROSE. The leading variety for earliness, quality and 
productiveness. 60c. peck, $2.00 bush., $3.75 bbl. 
BEAUTY OF HEBRON. One of the best early sorts; productive 
and of excellent flavor; a good keeper; pure white skin and flesh. 
60e. peck, $2.00 bush., $3.75 bbl. Bo 
CLARKE’S No. 1. Earlier than the Early Rose and very pro- 
ductive. Cooks mealy. 60c. peck, $2.00 bush., $3.75 bbl. 
MEDIUM EARLY VARIETIES. 
NEW IDEAL. Yields a very much heavier crop than any of the 
earlies; in fact, it outyielded several of the late potatoes. Itis | 
a handsome potato, having a pink russet skin; it is one of the | 
best cooking or baking potatoes, the flavor being excellent; the | 
vines are large, stocky and healthy; its keeping qualities are of | 
the best. 60c. peck, $2.00 bush., $4.00 bbl. 
RURAL NEW-YORKER No. 2. Large and smooth variety, of 
excellent quality; white skin and flesh, with few and shallow 
eyes. 60c. peck, $2.00 bush., $3.75 bbl. 
| CARMAN No. 3. A new seedling raised by Mr. Carman. It is 
of perfect form, even in dry seasons, almost every potato being 
of uniform size and shape, averaging nearly a pound each in 
weight. It has but few eyes, and they are very shallow. The 
skin and flesh are extremely white, no hollow or dark parts, and 
its cooking qualities are exceptionally fine; a remarkably hand- 
some potato and enormously prolific. 60c. peck, $2.00 bush., 
$3.75 bbl. 
CARMAN No.1. Introduced three years ago and created a sen- 
sation on account of its very large size, uniform shape, hand- 
some appearance and immense yield. Its cooking qualities are 
of a high order. 60c. peck, $2.00 bush., $3.75 bbl.

3 lbs. 80c., 5 lbs. $1.20, delivered. Jf by. freight or express, at 
purchaser's expense, deduct 8c. per lb., or buyer paying transit, 
$1.25 peck, $4.00 bush., $8.00 bbl.
