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 hest seed potatoes are raised, and thousands of carloads are shipped every year from the coun- 
ties 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.
