J. BOLGIANO SOW'S NEW RED PEPPER. 



Double the size of Ruby King Pepper and equally as mild. By care- 

 ful and numerous experiments we have found this enormous mild red 

 pepper to be a money maker of great value to the trucker. The mon 

 strous fruits are of a thick blocky form and of the most brilliant glossy 

 scarlet. They grow 4 to 5 inches broad at the top, about 4 to 5 inches in 

 length and are divided into four or more large ridges and when ripe 

 they are indented at the blossom end. It is early, productive, and 

 quickly sells on account of its enormous size. The plants are vigorous 

 stocky and grow about two feet in height. They are well branched and 

 thickly set with the largest Peppers, frequently half a dozen fruits will 

 touch each other as if in a single bunch; the strong growth of the plants 

 and abundant foliage enable them to mature the large number of fruits 

 almost as early as the Famous Ruby King, PKt. 10c, Oz. 25c, 

 1/4 Lb. $1.00, 1 Lb. $3.50. 



MAMMOTH RUBY KING, extra selected stock. 



Since first introduced, this magnificent variety has so gained in 

 popular favor that it is now recognized as the best and most profitable 

 Red Pepper for market or family use. Everyone who has seen our 

 crops has been enthusiastic in praise of the beautiful plants crowded 

 with the large, handsome fruits of a bright ruby red color. The Pep- 

 pers ordinarily grow 4% to 6 inches long by t, 1 A to 4% inches through. 

 Added to their beautiful color when ripe is the fact that they are re- 

 markably mild and pleasant to the taste — in this respect unequaled by 

 any other Red Pepper. We cannot too strongly recommend the Ruby 

 King. So mild and pleasant in flavor they can even be sliced and eaten 

 with pepper and vinegar, like Tomatoes, and makes a very pleasant 

 and appetizing salad, while for stuffing and pepper hash no other 

 variety can equal them. PKts. 5c and 10c, Oz. 20c, 2 Ozs. 35c,

ED BLISS TRIUMPH, or IMPROVED RED BERMUDA. 



This variety has rapidly come to the front, and now the leading 

 standard seed variety shipped to the Southern States. It is of the 

 earliest varieties grown. The rubers are round, uniform in shape, eyes 

 slightly depressed and of a beautiful bright red color. It is one of the 

 hardiest varieties known, and is not susceptible to rot, scab or disease. 

 Its great productiveness, handsome color and resistance to disease 

 make it most popular with Southern shippers. Peck 60c. Bus. $1.35. 

 Bbl. $3.50. 



^f*!-* PRIDE OF THE SOUTH, OR WHITE BLISS TRIUMPH. 



This variety is a twin to the Red Bliss Triumph in everything except 

 color, it being white, with pink eyes. In ripening, the vines die down all 

 at once, thus giving the blight no chance to work. It is a quick, strong, 

 vigorous grower and very superior in cooking qualities; used largely in 

 the South for Northern markets. PecK 60c, Bus. $1.35, Bbl. $3.50. 



Early New Queens Seed Potatoes. 



Very popular early variety, closely resembling, but much earlier than 

 its parent, the Beauty of Hebron; in fact, requiring an expert to deter- 

 mine one from the other. Our stock is the purest, being particularly 

 free from any late strains. In quality it is the most excellent, mealy 

 and fine flavor, so much to be desired in a table Potato. It is now being 

 used very largely by the Southern growers and regarded as the very 

 best for hotel and high-class trade. PecK 60c, Bus. $1.25, Bbl. $3.25.

 Gentlemen: — The Crown Jewel Potatoes that I bought from 

 you last Spring are Jewels and no mistake. They take the cake 

 here.

 MAINE H0ULT0N EARLY ROSE SEED POTATOES. 



Our stock is the genuine Early Rose, which still remains the stand- 

 ard early variety. It is so true and superior that Potato growers all 

 over the North and Northwest find it absolutely necessary, if they want 

 to keep the purity of their stocks up, to annually get new seed from our 

 Potato Seed Farms in Aroostook County, Maine. We annually send 

 out thousands of bushels, which have given the most satisfactory and 

 profitable crops. It is about a week earlier than the New York or 

 Michigan Early Rose, more productive, of a decidedly handsome ap- 

 pearance. Any gardener planting the two side by side can never be 

 persuaded to plant any other Early Rose than our full-blooded Maine 

 Houlton Aroostook County grown. PecK 50c, Bus. $1.25, Bbl. $3.25. 



EARLY THOROUGHBRED SEED POTATOES. 



Has many friends who enthusiastically declare it to be a perfect 

 Potato, and a splendid money-maker. Produces an unusally large pro- 

 portion of uniform, large, marketable Potatoes which are as early as 

 Early Rose and resembles it in shape, color and quality. It has, under 

 thorough cultivation, produced 500 bushels to the acre, and is never 

 affected by drouths. In quality it equals our famous Prosperity. 

 PecK 60c, Bus. $1.30, Bbl. $3.25. 



HENDERSON'S EARLY BOVEE SEED POTATOES. 



One of the earliest varieties and fairly prolific; has a stalky, dwarfed 

 vine, the tubers growing completely in the hill and averaging of good 

 size and appearance; very shallow eyed. PecK 60c, Bus. $1.35, 

 Bbl. $3.50. 



CROWN JEWEL SEED POTATOES. 



A celebrated early variety of fine quality, and very desirable for 

 early planting. Skin white and smooth, eyes shallow, flesh pure white 

 and floury; very productive. The vines grow vigorously; the roots ex- 

 tend very deep into the soil, thus resisting ihe drouth; and the keeping 

 qualities are unsurpassed. Its earliness and fine table quality make it a 

 most profitable Potato for both the market and the home garden. 

 PerK 40c, Bus. $1.25, Bbl. $3.25, 10 Bbl. Lots at $3.00.
