Ruby King. 



Early Cobbler (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 gardener who al- 

 wa3^s likes to dig the entire crop at one time and 

 follow with a crop of something else from the 

 same ground. 



Extra Early Bovee.— A most desirable new 

 Potato introduced several years ago has become 

 very popular. Reported 12 days earlier than 

 Early Ohio, and is the earliest Potato we know 

 of. The best Potato of the Early Hebron type. 

 Vines dwarf and stocky; tubers have pink skin 

 and are smooth, handsome and of fine quality. 

 Heavy producer. 



Early Rose.— For a generation the standard 

 Potato of the whole country for earlies, yield, 

 thrift, beauty and table qualities, because it al- 

 ways succeeds well in any soil in any climate and 

 in any latitude; too well known to need descrip- 

 tion. Our stock is strictly pure. 



Early Beauty of Hebron.— For many 

 years a standard variet}', nearly as early as the 

 Early Rose, but exceeds this variety in produc- 

 tiveness, and of fine table qualities.

 toes 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. Rose color, but more oval in form ; 

 good for the farm or market garden. Stock 

 limited. 



New Queen. — A Seedling of the Beauty 

 of Hebron, and resembles it; large, smooth and 

 vigorous grower, of splendid table qualities, very 

 productive. 



Early Northern. — Originated in Aroostook, 

 introduced in 1892. A seeding of the Early Rose, 

 which it much resembles in appearance ; earlier 

 than Early Rose and more prolific. Table quali- 

 ties unexcelled, very hardy. 



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
