 POTATOES 



Prices of Seed Potatoes are subject to market 

 fluctuations and change without notice. 



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 abundance, and yields 

 a very large 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 compact 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 engrav- 

 ing.) Price, $1.70 peck, $6.50 bushel, $13.00 sack of 165 pounds net weight. By express 

 or freight at purchaser's expense. 



Uncle Sam Potato 



Prodigious Cropper, Quality Perfect, White, Dry and Floury 



Uncle Sam is a particularly fine potato with phenomenal cropping qualities. We believe it 

 to be the heaviest yielding variety grown. On a loam or sandy soil it is a wonder in yield and 

 quality. The crop averages remarkably regular in size and shape. Its appearance and superb 

 quality when served satisfy the most fastidious, its flaky snow-white appearance gaining instant 

 favor. 



The tubers are oval shaped, with light russet skin, very even in outline and with shallow eyes. Its 

 handsome appearance and perfect form always ensure a fancy price on the market. Price, $1.70 peck, 

 $6.50 bushel, $13.00 sack of 165 pounds net. By express or freight at purchaser' s expense, 



Irish Gobbler 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 engraving.) Price, 

 $1.60 peck, $6.00 bushel, $12.00 sack of 165 pounds net weight. By ex- 

 press or freight at purchaser' s expense.

Improved Green Mountain Potato 



A reliable medium late Potato. It seems to thrive in all soils 

 and in all localities, making heavy, healthy vines, and yielding big 

 crops of large, smooth, white skinned tubers of handsome flattish 

 oval form. It cooks white, dry and mealy, and has a desirable 

 flavor exclusively its own. It keeps well, and is not liable to scab 

 or decay. Price, $1.60 peck, $6.00 bushel, $12.00 sack of 165 

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



Sir Walter Raleigh Potato 



This is one of the best varieties for a main crop, and is admirably 

 adapted to general cultivation. The vines are of average size, but 

 so vigorous that they stand erect long enough to allow necessary 

 cultivation. It produces an extremely large crop of round, slightly 

 flattened tubers, smooth, white skinned, and very attractive in 

 appearance. 



Its good quality is greatly improved when stored in a cool, dry 

 cellar. When cooked it breaks up thoroughly, presenting a flaky, 

 snowy appearance, at once appetizing and indicative of its superior 

 flavor. Price, $1.60 peck, $6.00 bushel, $12.00 sack of 165 pounds 

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



Henderson's Early Puritan Potato 



A valuable early sort, which produces a heavy crop of roundish- 

 oval tubers of good average size. Both flesh and skin are white. 

 The plant is strong and resists disease well. Tin- flesh is of line 

 texture, and when cooked is dry, floury and full-flavored. Price, 

 $1.60 peck, $6.00 bushel, $12.00 sack of 165 pounds net weight. 

 By express or freiglit at purchaser's expt nsi . 



Henderson's Late Puritan Potato 



One of the best large Potatoes. The tubers are rather long, white 

 and smooth skinned. The vines arc of medium length, robust in 

 habit and very healthy, which ensures great freedom from disease 

 and a thoroughly ripened crop. It is a sure and safe cropper and 

 one of the best keepers in cultivation. The flesh is pure white, 

 mealy and perfect in texture and of particularly good quality. 

 Price, $1.60 peck, $6.00 bushel, $12.00 sack of 165 pounds net 

 Weight. By express or freight at purchaser's expense.
