GZ d; . As to its origin and history, the originator 
\ says of it: ‘‘Kureka Extra Early was a 
chance hill found growing in a field of 
Early Morn potatoes, season of 1895. In 
looking over the field a single plant was 
noticed distinct from the rest, which died 
while the others were still green. 
“Tt has never failed to produce a large 
crop of extra early potatoes. The plant is 
dwarf and compact, maturing in advance 
of the Karly Rose and Freeman. It never 
has had the blight. The tubers are round, 
slightly flattened. White skin, free from 
disease. Flesh, white and mealy; no cores 
or black specks. Quality unsurpassed. 
“One point alone which makes it valu- 
able is that it has never taken second 
growth, and resists drought better than any 
other potato we have-ever grown. North, 
South, East and West, Eureka Extra 
Early always came off with flying colors. 
We again advise early orders, for while 
our stock is large, the demand for Eureka 
is simply astonishing. Lb., 40 cts.; 3 lbs.,
