"BOVEE," 



^HENDERSON'S earliest of all PQTATO/ 

 IS A MARVEL. — . 



A Marvel in Quality I A Marvel in Vigor! 



White, dry and mealy. Health and freedom from disease. 



A Marvel in Yield! 



Outyieldlng all of the Earlies, and equaling 

 the heaviest cropping Lates. 



A Marvel in Uniform Size 



and perfect shape. 



A Marvel of Popularity 



in Europe and America. 



The above outline of HENDERSON'S "BOVEE" POTATO is about two=thirds natural size. 



WHEN we introduced Henderson's "Bovee" Potato, our own tests and the 

 opinions of others led us to claim a good deal for it, and our confidence has 

 not been misplaced. Not only is it the earliest, but it takes a leading place 

 among the heavy cropping varieties, an unusual thing among first earlies. It is 

 even earlier than Early Ohio, and compares favorably with Triumph, alight-cropping 

 variety that has only extreme eat liness to recommend it, while the " Bovee," in all 

 competitive trials has outyielded all the early Potatoes, and in many of the tests 

 conducted bj' Experiment Stations and private growers it has outyielded even the 

 late varieties. The vine is dwarf and stocky, enabling it to be planted six inches 

 closer than nearly all other varieties, which results in a much larger return per acre, 

 and is a feature of the utmost value where land is valuable. The tubers grow remark- 

 ably close, all bunched together in the hill close up to the vine. {See cut.) Thej- size 

 up to a marketable size more evenly than any Potato we ever saw ; none too large or 

 too small ; practicallj' the whole crop being merchantable and the quality is perfect. 

 We have only one warning — it is apt to prove disappointing on poor soil or with poor 

 cultivation, as it sets so freely the tubers are apt to be small. But on good Potato 

 ground, well fertilized and cultivated, no other early Potato to-daj- compares with it.
