Henderson s BOVEE POTATO ll^k'^T.^^ 



"The Bmee is the best early Potato that 

 I ever raised: it is not only early, but produces a 

 large crop even in poor ground — / hare used it 

 for tuo years." A. ELY, Rutherford, N. J. 



"In regard to the Bovee Potato, it is one of 

 the very best. We have them on hand now 

 (March 16) and they are as firm as u'hen first 

 dug. They cook quick and look as white as snow." 

 CHAS. H. BODIXE. Sorth Adams, Mass. 



"The Potatoes I bought from you are fine. 

 The Bovee Potatoes I planted first are now in 

 full bloom and are as big as walnuts. I think I 

 will have a big crop. " 



C. A. CARLSON, Centerville, la. 



I— [EXDERSOX'S Bovee Potato is not only extra early, but in all competitive trials has 

 ' * outyielded all the early Potatoes, and in many tests conducted b\' Experiment 

 Stations and private growers it has outyielded even the late varieties. The vine is dwarf 

 and stocky, enabling it to be planted six inches closer than nearly all other varieties, which 

 results in a much larger return per acre, and is a feature of the utmost value where land 

 is valuable. The tubers grow bunched together in the hill close up to the vine. They grow 

 to a marketable size more evenly than any Potato we have ever seen ; none too large or 

 too small; practically the whole crop being merchantable and the quality is perfect. We 

 have only one warning— it is apt to prove disappointing on poor soil or. with poor culti- 

 vation, as it sets so freely the tubers are apt to be small. But on good Potato ground, 

 well fertilized and cultivated, no other early Potato surpasses it. {See cut. ) PRICE, $1.00 pk.,
