UNCLE SAM" 



It is the handsomest Potato grown. 



ITS COOKING QUALITIES are Superior 



—WHITE, DRY and FLOURY. 



A Luxuriant, Healthy Grower, free 

 from Disease, Blight, Scab or Rot. 



It outyields all other Potatoes nearly two to one. 

 Its shape and size are wonderfully uniform. 





"UNCLE SAM" 



Possesses more desirable qualities than any 

 otlier Potato. Its cropping qualities are phe- 

 nomenal, and we believe it to be the heaviest 

 yielding Potato known, not even excepting 

 several varieties worthless in every other re- 

 spect than their heavy cropping qualities — 

 varieties which produce coarse, waxy and un- 

 palatable tubers. On clay or heavy soils 

 "UNCLE SAM" is not a satisfactory Potato 

 and is apt to get coarse and unshapely, but on 

 a loain or sandy soil there is no Potato which 

 will outyield it or give more satisfactory results. 

 Its productiveness is largely attributable to the 

 uniform size of he Potatoes, nearly all sizing 

 up alike, none too "irge and few too small, but 

 its crowning niei. is its superb cooking 

 qualities, which will ultimately place "UNCLE 

 SAM " on every table where quality in Potatoes 

 is appreciated. Its handsome, pure white, floury 

 appearance attracts the attention of all. It is a 

 medium late variety, ripening along with Bural 

 New-Yorker No. 2, and has most luxuriant foli- 

 age, completely shading the ground. The tubers 

 are oval, with pure white russet skin, with very 

 shallow eyes near the surface, and are so hand- 

 some in appearance and perfect in form that they 

 will always bring an enhanced price upon the 

 market. (See cut.) 60c. peck, $2.00 bushel, 

 $4.00 bbl.

"Sir waiter Raieioti." 



A GRAND MAIN CROP POTATO. 



Mr. Carman's best Seedling raised from 

 his Rural New-Yorker No. 2. 



A GRAND IMPROVEMENT OVER ITS PARENT. 



SIR •WALTER RALEIGH is the best ot 

 Mr. Carman's iutroduoLions, and Mr. Carman 

 has raised some of the best and most popular 

 varieties, notably the great pairs, Eural Blush 

 and Rural New-Yorker No. 2, and the Carman 

 No. 1 and No. 3. In most respects it closely 

 resembles Rural New-Yorker No. 2, but Is more 

 uniform and yields practically no small tubers, 

 every one being marketable. It is from four to 

 six days later than the Rural New-Yorker; the 

 color of the skin is the same, but the flesh is 

 whiter and of better quality ; in fact, it is the 

 whitest-fleshed and finest-grained Potato, ex- 

 celling even the Snowflake. It is unquestlon- 

 ably the best of its type, and will soon super- 

 sede all others for main crop. {See cut.)

 post or express paid. If by freight or express,

Those who have tried our " Sir Walter 

 Raleigh" Potatoes write: 



■■/ am of a decided opinion that 'Sir Walter Raleigh' 

 will he the coming Potato for main crop. It has certainly 

 far exceeded my expectations. I have grown all of Mr. 

 Carman's Potatoes, and believe that in '.Sir Walter Ra- 

 leigh' Mr. Carman has excelled all his previous elTorts." 

 J. L. COXOVER, Wickatunk, .Monmouth Co.. N. J. 



"The 'Sir Walter Raleigh' is a great yielder; all large 

 Potatoes, no small ones; vines grow strong and upright." 

 C. W. BEARDSLEY, Milford, Conn, 



" 'Sir Walter Raleigh ' is an immense yielder.offine qual- 

 ity and very few small ones." 



S. O. BENJAMIN, Aquehogue, Long Island, S.Y. 



".it present, ALL things considered, we are inclined to 

 regard the 'Sir Walter Raleigh' as the best Potato we 

 have ever tried."
