Maine-Grown Seed 



Potatoes 



All of the Seed Potatoes we sell are grown in the 

 State of Maine, where it is universally acknowl- 

 edged the best seed potatoes are raised, and thou- 

 sands of carloads are shipped every year from the 

 counties of Holton and Aroostook alone. Farmers 

 and truckers in the Middle and Southern States 

 should renew their seed potatoes at least every two 

 years, as by doing so they will realize the advantage 

 of early maturity and productiveness. 



Special prices will be given on application. 



OHIO, or XX EARLY— This is one of the earli- 

 est potatoes grown ; it will bear heavy manuring 

 with commercial fertilizer; yields well, is free from 

 blight; potatoes come to eatable size very early and 

 eat well. 



EARLY ROSE— For a generation the standard 

 potato of the whole country for earliest yield, thrift, 

 beauty and table qualities, because it always suc- 

 ceeds well in any soil in any climate. 



SPAULDING ROSE— Said to be the earliest po- 

 tato now grown, and especially recommended for 

 early market trade. Grown under favorable circum- 

 stances, they are ready for the table at 10 weeks

Chinese Giant. 



from date of planting, and fully matured at 12 

 A'eeks. Medium sized, very smooth-skinned, shallow- 

 eyed, and of fine texture ; in color light pink. 



IRISH COBBLER— One of the most reliable first 

 early potatoes ever sent out. It ripens almost with 

 the Early Ohio, and so uniform that every hill 

 seems to ripen all at one time. The value of this 

 feature will be at once apparent to the market gar- 

 dener who always likes to dig the entire crop at 

 one time and follow with a crop of something else 

 from the same ground. 



BLISS RED TRIUMPH— This beautiful variety 

 combines the productiveness of the Carman with 

 the good qualities of the Early Rose. It is an extra 

 -early variety. The tubers are of medium size, 

 round and uniform in shape, eyes slightly depressed; 

 color a beautiful red. Its great beauty, productive- 

 ness, and fine quality make it one of the best extra- 

 early market varieties. 



GREEN MOUNTAIN— White skin, flat, oval 

 form, smooth, of good appearance ; fine for the table 

 when well grown ; ripens slowly and is a good 

 keeper ; valuable for late crops ; now taking the lead 

 in all markets. 



GOLD COIN — A splendid Maine-crop variety of 

 remarkable productiveness and finest table quality ; 

 slightly oblong form, light golden skin, flesh pure 

 white, fine grained, cooks very dry. 



IMPROVED WHITE McCORMICK— A very 

 popular late sort; in fact, too well known for us to 

 describe. Plant along in June or July, and you 

 will receive a yield that will surprise you.
