HENDERSON'S GOVERNMENT INSPECTED 



SEED POTATOES 



NORTHERN GROWN ESPECIALLY FOR SEEDING 



(1 peck will plant about 125 hills: 10 to 12 bushels per acre, in drills 

 S feet apart.) Purchaser pays freight or express charges and assumes risk 

 from freezing or heating. The barrel is 165 lbs. net weight. Prices subject 

 to change without notice. 



Early Varieties 



Henderson's BOVEE POTATO. The popular extra-early. Delicious, 

 appetizing new potatoes fan be produced earlier with BOVEE than any 

 other. It is not only early, but produces its crop in great abundance, 

 and yields a very large percentage of perfectly formed tubers. The culti- 

 vator can be used to better advantage on a crop of Bovee than any 

 other sort, owing to the short and compact growth of the vines, and its 

 habit of setting the entire crop close in the hill. 



Bovee, perhaps more than any other sort, delights in a rich soil, 

 responding most generously to good treatment; given the proper soil 

 conditions, frequent and thorough cultivation and fairly good climatic 

 conditions, it will yield an abundance of medium sized Potatoes of 

 perfect shape and remarkably good quality. Price, $1.60 peck, $5.50 

 bushel, $11.00 barrel of 165 pounds net weight. 



Beauty of Hebron. A popular early sort and one of the best; red and 

 white skin and pure white flesh; quality excellent; productive and a 

 good keeper. $1.30 peck, $4.50 bushel, $9.00 barrel.

 mealy. $1.30 peck, $4.50 bushel, $9.00 barrel. 



Early Ohio. Very early, almost round; flesh solid; cooks dry and 

 mealy. $1.30 peck, $4.50 bushel, $9.00 barrel.

 which it resembles, and exceedingly prolific; eyes few and shallow; 

 unexcelled cooking qualities, dry and floury. $1.30 peck, $4.50 bushel, 

 $9.00 barrel. 



Early Puritan, Henderson's. A valuable early sort, which produces 

 a heavy crop of roundish-oval tubers of good average size. Both flesh

 flesh is of fine texture, and when cooked is dry, floury and full-flavored. 

 $1.30 peck, $4.50 bushel, $9.00 barrel.

 ductiveness and fine quality. $1.30 peck, $4.50 bushel, $9.00 barrel.

Uncle Sam Potato 



The Handsomest Potato Grown Quality Perfect — White, Dry and Floury 



Uncle Sam is a particulary fine Potato with phenomenal cropping 

 qualities. We believe it to be the heaviest yielding variety grown. On 

 a loam or sandy soil it is a wonder in yield and quality. The crop 

 averages remarkably regular in size and shape. Its appearance and 

 superb quality when served satisfy the most fastidious, its flaky snow- 

 white appearance gaining instant favor. 



The tubers are oval shaped, with light russet skin, very even in 

 outline and with shallow eyes. Its handsome appearance and perfect 

 form always ensure a fancy price on the market. $1.50 peck, $5.00 



bushel, $10.00 barrel. 



Improved Green 



ountain Potato 



A reliable medium late Potato which is rapidly increasing in popularity 

 — in fact, in some sections it has superseded all other main crop varieties. 

 It seems to thrive in all soils and in all localities, making heavy, healthy- 

 vines, and yieldng big crops of large, smooth, white skinned tubers of 

 handsome flattish oval form. It cooks white, dry and mealy, and has 

 a desirable flavor exclusively its own. It keeps well, and is not liable 

 to scab or decay. (See engraving) . $ 1 .30 peck, $4.50 bushel, $9.00 barrel.
