Uncle Sam has established its 

 reputation as one of the most 

 desirable varieties. It is of excel- 

 lent flavor, which alone would 

 be sufficient commendation for 

 family use, but in addition it has 

 probably more points of excel- 

 lence than any one variety. The 

 vines are medium in height, very 

 robust, and stand up well till the 

 last cultivation. This vigorous 

 habit renders it strongly resistant 

 to blight, scab and other diseases 

 to which many varieties succumb. 

 It produces a heavy crop of re- 

 markably even-sized and smooth 

 tubers. Indeed.no variety exceeds 

 it in uniformity of product. There 

 are many varieties on the market 

 that will produce a heavier crop, 

 but none that will yield such an 

 abundant store of perfect Pota- 

 toes. It is medium to late in season, ripening its crop in ample time to harvest it under the most favorable conditions. The tubers are 

 oval shaped, with white skin and very shallow eyes, which makes peeling easy. They are perfect in form, handsome in appearance, while 

 their attractive, white, mealy character, when prepared for table, compels instant attention. (See cut.) Price, 75c. peck, $2.50 bushel, 

 $5.00 barrel of 165 pounds net. By express or freight at customer's expense. 



'/ raised forty bushels of the Uncle Sam Potatoes from one barrel last summer. 



We hope to do better still this year." KLEBER A. EDWARDS, Providence. R. I. 



"Out of two barrels of Uncle Sam Potatoes, I harvested 33 barrels. They are the 

 great yielders you claim them to be." LEON DESPLAND, Daytona, Fla.
