POTATO GROWN 



UNCLE SAM POTATO 



SIK WALTEK RALEIGH POTATO 



A Grand Main-Crop 

 Variety 



SIR WALTER RALEIGH is the best of 

 the late Potatoes. It is a grand main- 

 crop variety of superlative quality, 

 vigorous growth, and a tremendous cropper. 

 It is unique in quality, being the whitest 

 fleshed and finest grained Potato grown, 

 excelling even the famous Snowflake in 

 this respect. The tubers are almost round, 

 white, with smooth skin, and exhibit a 

 peculiar uniformity in size. No better 

 main-crop Potato for general use was ever 

 introduced, and we commend it to all 

 growers. Price, 90c. pk., $3.00 bu., 

 $6.00 bbl. of 165 lbs. net. By express or 

 freight at purchaser's expense.

 ordinary potatoes are only bringing 5oc. to 70c. "

PRODIGIOUS CROPPER 



VERY UNIFORM IN SIZE 



QUALITY PEKFECT 



WHITE, DRY AND FLOURY 



UXCLE SAM is a particularly fine Potato 

 with phenomenal cropping qualities. 

 We believe it to be the heaviest j-ield- 

 ing \-ariety 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 

 f|uality when served satisfy the most fasti- 

 dious, its flaky snow-white appearance gain- 

 in't; instant favor. 



The tubers are oval shaped, with light 

 russet skin, very even in outline and with 

 lallow eyes. Its handsome appearance and 

 erl'ect form always ensure a fancy price 

 (in the market. (See cut.) Price, 90c. pk., 

 $3.00 bu., $6.00 bbl. of 165 lbs. net By

 Sam." TIMES HER.ALD. Newport News. \'a.

IMPROVED GREEN MOUNTAIN POTATO 



A RELIABLE medium late Potato increasing in popularity where known — in fact, having 

 in some sections superseded all other main-crop varieties. 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, 

 with a desirable flavor exclusivelv its own. A good keeper, not liable to scab in field or 

 decay in cellar. {See cut.) Price, 80c. pk., $2.75 bu., $5.50 bbl. of 165 lbs. net. By-
