SIFk WALTEK RALEIGH POTATO. 



A Grand MaiivCrop 

 Variety. 



SIR WALTER RALEIGH is the best of 

 the late potatoes. It is a grand main- 

 crop variety of superlative quality, vig- 

 orous growth, and a tremendous cropper. 

 1 1 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 pe- 

 culiar uniformity in size. No better main- 

 crop potato for general use was ever intro- 

 duced, and we commend it to all growers. 

 Price, 75c. pk., $2.50 bush., $5.00 bbl. of 

 165 lbs. net. By express or freight at pur- 

 chaser's expense. 



Those who have grown our 

 Sir Walter Raleigh Potatoes write: 



"Sir Waller Raleigh is a great yielder of large 

 potatoes and of extra good eating quality." 



ELMER C. MORSE, Rutland, Vermont. 



"I have had excellent results from my 'Sir Walter 

 Raleighs,' they grew large and fine although the sea- 

 son was bad and all other potatoes around here grew 

 small. I am selling as I dig them for SI. 00 per 

 bushel while ordinary potatoes are only bringing 55c. 

 to 70c" Rev. W - L. RILEY, Kane, Pa. 



" I cannot withhold my testimony of the value of 

 your Raleigh Potatoes. We got them from you three 

 years ago, they outyield everything in the potato line in 

 this part of the country, and are the finest, mealiest 

 potatoes we ever ate. " 



A. E. VANDEWATER, Blair sville. Pa. 



" Sir Walter Raleigh proved to be exceptionally 



fine — 10 quarts of seed with no special attention 



yielded 4\ bushels of as fine potatoes as can be grown. " 



E. K. SHULTZ, Moweaqua, Ills. 



UXCLE SAM is a j articularly fine potato 

 with phenomenal cropping qualities. 

 We believe it to be the heaviest yield- 

 ing 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 fasti- 

 dious, its flaky snow-white appearance gain- 

 ing 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. (See cut! Price, 75c. pk., 

 $2.50 bush., $5.00 bbl. of 165 lbs. net By 

 express or freight at purchaser's expense. 



"I planted your Uncle Sam Potatoes in June and not- 

 withstanding the lateness of the season they yielded a 

 large crop of the finest potatoes both in looks and qual- 

 ity I have ever grown: every one who tries them 

 agrees with me." 



E. H. LOCKWOOD,Edgewood, R. I. 

 "We raised your Uncle Sam Potatoes last year; they 

 are the finest in the world." 



J. T. BUCKLEY, Winona, Miss. 

 " We like your Uncle Sam Potatoes very much. Their 

 table quality is unsurpassed, and they outyielded every 

 other variety we planted. " 



AMOS G. GRAY, North Cambridge, Mass. 

 "I consider your Uncle Sam Potato far superior to 

 any that I have ever seen — not only in quality, but in the 

 quantity grown per acre." 



A. A. HUNGERFORD, Rural Hill, N. Y. 



IMPROVED GREEN MOUNTAIN POTATO. 



A RELIABLE medium late potato increasing in popularity where known — in fact, hav- 

 ing in some sections superseded all other main-crop varieties. It seems to thrive in all 

 soils and in all localities, making heavv, healthy vines and yielding big crops of 

 large, smooth, white-skinned tubers of handsome flattish oval form. It cooks white, 

 drv and mealv, with a desirable flavor exclusively its own. A good keeper, not liable 

 to'scab in field or decav in cellar. (See cut.) Price, 75c. pk., $2.50 bush., $5.00 bbl. of 

 165 lbs. net. By express or freight at purchaser's expense.
