MAGGIE MURPHY. The best and 

 most 2)roJitable late potato especi- 

 ally for a light soil. Although 

 not of most recent introduction, yet 

 the Maggie Murphy has been greatly 

 improved by careful selection and 

 cultivation. In a field last season 

 with twelve other varieties, such as 

 Freeman, Great Divide, World's 

 Fair and others, it was by far the 

 most productive and produced more 

 large, handsome potatoes than any 

 of the others; oval in form (see il- 

 lustration); skin a delicate pinkish 

 tint with russet markings, eyes 

 flush with the surface; plants very 

 strong and vigorous, remaining 

 green up to maturity, blight proof 

 and an enormoils y ielder ; excellent 

 table qualities, a good keeper and 

 one that will find a ready sale in any 

 market. Price: per lb., *15c; 2 lbs., s= 

 *25c; Y 2 Pk., 30c; pk., 50c; % bu., ^ 

 80c; bu., $1.50; bbl., $3.50. 



Everything in the seed line from 

 you last year gave us perfect satis- 

 faction, and we pride ourselves on 

 our fine vegetables. The Maggie Murphy potatoes were the finest I have ever seen. — John B. OTTS, Pa.
