Cole's Seed Store, Pella, Iowa 



CHOICE SEED POTATOES 



With no other seed is the importance of a change more essential than with the Potato. 

 We offer Fancy Grown Stock, well selected, hand picked. No potatoes grown can compare 

 with Northern grown seed either for vig-or, early maturity, increased yield, freedom from 

 disease and long- keeping" CLualities. 



We offer only a few varieties which have become standard sorts and have proven to be the 

 best varieties grown. 



We book orders at any time, and fill in rotation just as soon as the weather will permit, 

 except at the risk of purchaser. At prices named we make no charge for bags, boxes, barrels 

 or drayage. 



TO AVOID DEZiAT, when ordering late in the season, it would be well to mention your 

 second choice provided we should be sold out of variety ordered. 



At the pound price we send by mail prepaid; at peck and bushel rate, they are sent by 

 freight or express at expense of purchaser. 



FBICES. The price we quote is nominal and is subject to market changes and may be 

 lower later in season. Will be pleased to quote firm prices at any time on application. 



POUND FBICXIS. All varieties at 2 5 cts. per lb., 3 lbs. 65 cts., postpaid. 



EXTRA EARLY OHIO 



This standard extra early sort matures 

 about two weeks before the Early Rose. It 

 is widely known and deservedly popular in 

 all parts of the country. It has given better 

 satisfaction over a wider range of country 

 than any other variety. The tubers grow 

 compact in the hill, are easily dug, very few 

 small ones, nearly all being of marketable 

 size. They keep firm till late in soring and 

 by many preferred for eating in winter. This 

 variety is sold by many as Extra Early Six 

 Weeks. Our choice Northern Grown seed is 

 at least ten days earlier than Southern grown 

 stock and will outyield them by far. Ex- 

 perienced gardeners will have no other seed 

 at any price. Per pkt. 75 cts., bu. $2.50, 3 

 bu. $7.00. 



EARLY SIX WEEKS 



This is a fine potato of the Ohio tj^pe, of 

 more oval form and redder in color. It is 

 extra early, but does not mature in six weeks 

 as its name implies. The improved stock as 

 now offered, it is considered one of the best 

 extra early market varieties. The potatoes 

 begin to form when the vines are only six 

 inches high. The flesh is of extreme white- 

 ness when cooked. The potatoes grow closelj' 

 in the hill and are very productive. It is a 

 splendid keeper, remaining sound until late 

 in the spring. Per pkt. 75 cts., bu. $2.50, 3 

 bu. $7.00. 



CONPIDEH-CE. Seeds have to be bought 

 on confidence. Tou are not buying a finished 

 product that you can examine, but only the 

 means by which j^our garden may be a com- 

 plete success or a total failure. 



Seeds, good or bad, look the same, but 

 what a difference when the crops are ma- 

 tured. It is the greatest factor that enters 



into a purchase of seeds; you cannot afford 

 to risk a season's work with poor, cheap seed 

 of unknown quality. When you buy Cole's 

 Seeds the element of doubt is removed so far 

 as human care can make it possible. 



IRISH COBBLER 



A chunky white netted early potato of 

 splendrd quality. Ripens one week later than 

 the Early Onio, but has better quality. Form 

 oval, and round, creamy-white and having 

 few eyes, which are quite shallow. Flesh 

 pure white and of the finest quality, not 

 exceeded by any early variety. Keeps per- 

 fect until spring. Especially suited to dry 

 climates on account of its deep roots. Its 

 strong growth, earliness, large yield, fine 

 quality, and very handsome appearance, is 

 making it one of the most popular and prof- 

 itable of the early varieties, for either mar- 

 ket or home use. Price, pk. 75 cts., bu. $2.50, 

 3 bu. $7.00,
