HENDERSON'S 



Bovee Potato 



A Marvel in Earliness! The Earliest of all 



A Marvel in Yield! Outyielding all of the Earlies 



A Marvel in Uniform Size and Perfect Shape 



It is not only early, but produces its crop in great abun- 

 dance, and yields a very targe percentage of perfectly formed 

 tubers. The cultivator can be used to better advantage on a 

 crop of Bovee than any other sort, owing to the short and com- 

 pact growth of the vines, and its habit of setting the entire crop 

 close in the hill. 



Bovee, perhaps more than any other sort, delights in a rich soil, 

 responding more generously to good treatment; given the proper soil 

 conditions, frequent and thorough cultivation and fairly good climatic 

 conditions, it will yield an abundance of medium sized Potatoes of perfect 

 shape and remarkably good quality. (See engraving.) Price, $1.75 

 peck, $6.00 bushel, $12.00 barrel of 165 pounds net weight. By express 

 or freight at purchaser's expense. 



HENDERSON'S 



Hollow Grown Parsnip 



Our selection of this highly esteemed variety is surely the best 

 for the private garden. We have discarded all the types with slim, 

 long roots that invariably break in digging, and offer only a shapely 

 heavy-shouldered strain with its greatest girth at the crown and 

 gradually tapering to a small root. This is easily dug, and is 

 suited to a greater variety of soils than any. To secure best 

 results deep digging is essential, and the soil should be free from 

 stone and well cultivated. 



For winter use lay the roots horizontally in small boxes packed 

 with ordinary garden soil, and store them in some convenient place 

 outdoors away from snow and rain. Bring in a box as needed, 

 thawing them out slowly in a moderate temperature. Frost 

 improves . their quality. (See engraving.) Price, 5c. -pkt., 20c.

" By cultivating my rows of Hollow Crown Parsnips three limes a week, 1 

 harvested 20 lbs. of parsnips to the square yard; at this rate one acre would 

 produce 48 and 2-5 tons. This seems unbelievable but I have the goods to 

 show. I got also three bushels of potatoes to the square rod." 



WILLIAM DURHAM, 1st Nat. Bank Bldg., Cincinnati, Ohio. 

 "I have grown Henderson's Hollow Crown Parsnips for five years How with 

 great success. They have always turned out to be of great size and splendid 

 flavor. I have had ?nany 14 to 15 inches around and 24 inches long." 



H. BARNSLEY, Havemeyer St., Corona, L. I. 



" Hen- 

 derson's 

 Bovee Pota- 

 toes I planted 

 this s pr i n g 

 yielded more po- 

 tatoes than any 

 others raised around 

 here. The Green 



Mou ntain Potatoes 

 were also very good."

"Having had such splen- 

 did results from the last lot of 

 your Early Bovee Potatoes, I 

 have decided to plant them again 

 this year."

Irish Cobbler Potato 



A fine, early variety, producing large handsome tubers, uniform 

 in shape and size. 



The flesh is white, and of excellent quality; the skin very light 

 brown, with whitish netting. It is a heavy cropper. (See engrav- 

 ing.) Price, $1.60 peck, $5.50 bushel, $11.00 barrel of 165 pounds 

 net weight. By express or freight at purchaser's expense. 



"Last year I wrote you about Potatoes, and you sent me Irish Cobbler. I 

 am pleased to state that they were a great success. Now I would like to get 

 equally good results this year."
