SEED SWEET POTATOES 



We make a specialty of Seed Sweet Potatoes, growing 

 our stock exclusively in New Jersey, about nine miles from 

 our Philadelphia warehouse, where we have unequalled 

 facilities for handling and storing. New Jersey grown sweet 

 potatoes are everywhere acknowledged to be the best in 

 quality, being much dryer and sweeter than those grown 

 in the South and West, while their keeping and shipping 

 qualities are away ahead. We pack for shipment in boxes 

 and barrels, with greatest care; but as they are very suscep- 

 tible to climatic clianges, we cannot hold ourselves respon- 

 sible for their condition after longjourneys of several hundred 

 miles, and wish it distinctly understood that customers 

 take ALiIj KISKS after we deliver in good condition to the 

 express or railroad company here. We do not ship until 

 about planting time unless specially ordered to do so. Our 

 barrels contain three bushels — good measure. Full 

 and concise directions for bedding and sprouting the seed, 

 setting out and cultivating sweet potato plants, also har- 

 vesting and storing for winter, will be found in our new 

 Leaflet-Essays on Sweet Potato Cnlture, which we will 

 ■end free with all orders ^rhen requested to do so.

 RIVERS" AND EARLY NANSEMOND. The justly

VINELAND 

 BUSH SWEET POTATO 



The New Vineland Bush Sweet Potato is bound to 

 revolutionize sweet potato culture. It originated on the 

 farm of John Maytrott, the extensive sweet potato grower of 

 New Jersey, from the well-known Early Nansemond and old 

 Vineland Sweet Potato. It is a perfect bush, with no inclin- 

 ation for spinning, resembling a bean bush very closely. 

 The tubers grow directly under the stalk. They are most 

 abundant bearers, good flavor, handsome, rich yellow color 

 and excellent keepers. Customers who have tried them say : 

 " They are simply perfection and a great improvement over 

 all other vineless potatoes heretofore sold." 



Prices: per lb., 40e.; 3 lbs., $1.00, by mail, postage paid; 

 peck, $1.50; bush., $5.00, by express. Plants of the New 

 Vineland Bush Sweet Potato, ready May 1.5th : 50 for 

 60c.; 100 for $1.00, by mail, postage paid; 75c. per 100; $5.00 

 per 1,000, by express. 500 plants at 1,000 rates.
