  Certificate 
  of 
  Quality 
  

  

  This 
  is 
  to 
  certify 
  that 
  I 
  Iiavc 
  had 
  charge 
  of 
  all 
  the 
  Seed 
  

   Potatoes 
  grown 
  for 
  J. 
  Bolgiano 
  & 
  Son 
  during 
  this 
  growing 
  

   season. 
  I 
  have 
  been 
  with 
  them 
  since 
  April 
  \Sth; 
  looked 
  after 
  

   the 
  selecting 
  of 
  their 
  seed 
  and 
  the 
  treating 
  of 
  the 
  same; 
  have 
  

   also 
  had 
  charge 
  of 
  the 
  spraying 
  during 
  the 
  growing 
  season. 
  

   There 
  was 
  nothing 
  planted 
  but 
  the 
  very 
  best 
  selected 
  seed, 
  

   and 
  nothifig 
  has 
  been 
  left 
  undone 
  to 
  have 
  them 
  right. 
  The 
  

   crop 
  is 
  now 
  being 
  harvested, 
  and 
  the 
  results 
  of 
  my 
  work 
  are 
  

   most 
  satisfactory. 
  We 
  are 
  harvesting 
  one 
  of 
  the 
  largest 
  crops 
  

   ever 
  grown 
  in 
  Aroostock 
  County, 
  Maine, 
  and 
  of 
  the 
  finest 
  

   quality, 
  free 
  from 
  any 
  disease 
  and 
  true 
  to 
  name. 
  I 
  spent 
  

   some 
  time 
  in 
  Washington, 
  D. 
  C, 
  with 
  the 
  Horticultural 
  Board 
  

   before 
  coming 
  here, 
  and 
  their 
  ideas 
  of 
  producing 
  FIRST- 
  

   CL.4SS 
  SEED 
  have 
  been 
  carried 
  out 
  to

  If 
  you 
  are 
  a 
  Potato 
  grower 
  and 
  once 
  saw 
  

   the 
  Plucky 
  Baltimore 
  Potato, 
  you 
  could 
  not 
  help 
  

   but 
  buy 
  it. 
  Its 
  attractive 
  shape, 
  pure 
  white 
  

   color, 
  and 
  in 
  fact 
  its 
  general 
  appearance 
  speaks 
  

   for 
  itself 
  far 
  better 
  than 
  we 
  can 
  write 
  about 
  it.

  Gray's 
  "Mortgage 
  Lifter" 
  Potato 
  

  

  Mr. 
  Gray 
  has 
  grown 
  several 
  bumper 
  crops 
  of 
  Gray's 
  "Mortgage 
  

   Lifter" 
  Potatoes; 
  he 
  says 
  they 
  were 
  so 
  large 
  they 
  reminded 
  him 
  of 
  

   young 
  pigs, 
  and 
  they 
  were 
  certainly 
  splendid 
  sellers 
  at 
  high 
  prices. 
  

  

  We 
  wish 
  every 
  one 
  of 
  our 
  cusomers 
  who 
  grow 
  potatoes 
  could 
  talk 
  

   with 
  the 
  growers 
  who 
  have 
  grown 
  a 
  crop 
  of 
  this 
  Grand 
  New 
  Po- 
  

   tato. 
  It 
  certainly 
  is 
  something 
  to 
  marvel 
  at, 
  and 
  yet 
  if 
  all 
  of 
  our 
  

   customers 
  realized 
  its 
  great 
  value 
  our 
  limited 
  supply 
  would 
  not 
  be 
  a 
  

   drop 
  in 
  the 
  bucket. 
  It 
  is 
  an 
  early 
  variety, 
  maturing 
  a 
  little 
  later 
  

   than 
  the 
  Crown 
  Jewel; 
  it 
  is 
  a 
  pure 
  white, 
  large, 
  handsome 
  size, 
  dis- 
  

   tinctive 
  in 
  shape, 
  being 
  long, 
  well 
  filled 
  and 
  tapering 
  at 
  both 
  ends. 
  

   Eyes 
  are 
  strong 
  and 
  well 
  set, 
  not 
  too 
  deeply, 
  however. 
  

  

  It 
  certainly 
  is 
  a 
  beauty 
  and 
  one 
  grower 
  says 
  they 
  grow 
  so 
  large 
  it 
  

   don't 
  take 
  many 
  to 
  fill 
  a 
  barrel, 
  no 
  culls, 
  and 
  by 
  the 
  carload 
  they 
  

   brought 
  over 
  $20 
  a 
  car 
  more 
  than 
  the 
  best 
  Potato 
  on 
  the 
  market. 
  

   Mr. 
  Prevatt, 
  of 
  Seville, 
  Fla., 
  after 
  giving 
  this 
  Grand 
  Potato 
  a 
  thor- 
  

   ough 
  trial, 
  orders 
  eight 
  barrels 
  in 
  the 
  place 
  of 
  one 
  he 
  planted 
  last 
  

   year. 
  Mrs. 
  Wm. 
  G. 
  Harvey, 
  of 
  Roslyn, 
  Md., 
  calls 
  it 
  the 
  "Farmers 
  

   Favorite." 
  Among 
  other 
  names 
  it 
  was 
  called 
  are 
  "Maryland 
  Beauty," 
  

   "Money-Maker," 
  "Virginia 
  Wonder," 
  "The 
  Excelsior," 
  "Gold 
  Stand- 
  

   ard," 
  "Silver 
  King," 
  etc. 
  We 
  finally 
  selected 
  Gray's 
  "Mortgage 
  

   Lifter" 
  as 
  suggested 
  by 
  Mr. 
  Jas. 
  T. 
  Gray, 
  of 
  Grange, 
  Md., 
  because 
  

   Mr. 
  Gray 
  actually 
  paid 
  off 
  a 
  good 
  size 
  mortgage 
  on 
  his 
  farm 
  with 
  the 
  

   proceeds 
  from 
  the 
  Wonderful 
  Crop 
  of 
  this 
  Grand 
  New 
  Potato 
  which 
  

   he 
  grew 
  this 
  year, 
  and 
  we 
  hope 
  that 
  the 
  mission 
  of 
  Gray's 
  "Mortgage 
  

   Lifter" 
  Potato 
  will 
  not 
  be 
  ended 
  until 
  it 
  has 
  helped 
  to 
  clear 
  many 
  

   more 
  farms 
  of 
  their 
  mortgages.
