E ARLY ^SOO BUSHELS To^e ACREj 



E VRLY MAINE.— As stated in the Illustration, has yielded on a large 

 scale 500 bushels per acre. One grower after planting them says: "Would 

 rather pay extra for Early Maine than take Early Rose for a gift." This appears to 

 be the general opinion of all who have planted them. They are not only smooth- 

 er, more productive and of better quality than the Rose, but also several days ear- 

 lier. Peck, gl.00; bushel, 82.25; barrel, $trA 



EARLY SUNRISE.— Has produced potatoes fit for the table eight weeks 

 from time of planting. Tubers are large, uniform and handsome, flesh white, 4s 

 fine grained and dry, cooking remarkably well when first dug. For years has < 

 given the best of satisfaction to my friends. Pk.,81.00; bu., 82.25; bbl., $1.50. 



EARLY OHIO.— Is so well-known as to need hardly any description. It ,<«\\S» 

 Is one of the very best early potatoes, and above all, is always fit for use be- / 

 fore fully ripe. Many growers consider it, and justly too, the most profit- 41b\H\\v 

 able market variety. My stock is extra carefully grown and selected, the 

 result of 20 years work by one of the most noted potato growers in America. 

 I can recommend it to all desiring the true Ohio. Pk., $1; bu., $2.25; bbl., $1.50. 



EARLY BEAUTY OP HEBRON My stock of this popular variety 



is grown for me by the best grower I know of in the State of New York, who 

 has selected his seed stock carefully for a dozen years or more, and consid- 

 ers that now he has it about perfect. Peck, Sl.OOfbushel, $2.25; barrel, St 50. 



EARLY ROSE. — This stock of Early Rose is grown for me by the same 

 grower who grows my Beauty of Hebron. He has been selecting it, together 

 with the Hebron for years, and I assure my friends that it is particularly 

 choice. Peck, S1.O0; bushel, $2.25; barrel, $4.25. 



ROSE'S BEAUTY OP BEAUTIES This seedling is from the Peach- 

 blow. On one-eighth of an acre they have yielded 125% bushels, or at the 

 rate of 1001 bushels per acre. Shape, beautiful oval-oblong to round; skin, 

 russeted white; eves, shallow; flesh, white, fine grain; cooks evenly through, 

 dry aud mealy, not falling to waste. Vines grow strong, fast and vigorous. 

 Tubers from 1 to 2 pounds each. One of the very best varieties introduced 

 in many years. I unquestionably consider it one of the best and most pro- 

 ductive late potatoes I know of. In competitive trials, both on my 

 trial grounds and elsewhere, it has frequently yielded one-third more 

 than the Rural New Yorker. Peck, S1.00; bushel, 32.25; barrel, $1.50. 



RURAL NEW YORKER NO. 3.— Originated on the experi- 

 mental grounds of the Rural New Yorker; is quite distinct in appear- 

 ance; flesh white; quality excellent; shape nearly round, somewhat 

 flattened. Tubers large to very large, but not rough or irregular; eyes 

 quite small; general form symmetrical. It is very strong and vigor- 

 ous in growth, and an enormous yielder. Has been planted largely by 

 many growers to their entire satisfaction. Pk., $1.00; bu., $2.25; bbl., $4.25. 



MAGGIE MURPHY. — A heavy cropping late potato, which is 

 much esteemed in many parts of New York State. Tubers are large, 

 well rounded, plump and very fine. A favorite with all who have 

 grown them, on account of its enormous productiveness, fine quality 

 and strong vigorous growth. Peck, $1.00; bushel, $2.25; barrel, $1.50. 



PURE GOLD STRAIN JERSEY YELLOW SWEET — The 

 celebrated Philadelphia sweet potato; universally grown for the Phila- 

 delphia and New York markets. Peck, $1.00; bushel, $2.25; barrel, $4.50.

THE QUEEN 



Always Remember 



That the two most profitable potatoes for the American planter to-day are the Freeman and 

 Irish Daisy. This year both varieties are offered at prices within the reach of all. 



THE Q.UEEN. — This excellent new early potato comes from Maine, from where during the last eight or ten years it has been sent all over 

 America, and given the best of satisfaction to all who have planted it. It is certainly a very fine, large size early potato, resembling the White 

 Elephant and Beauty of Hebron in color and shape. In addition to being very early, t hey are of excellent quality, as well as a superior yielder. 

 One grower reports that the Queen planted April 13th, were ready to dig June 17th, 65 days after planting, and that he was able to sell them in the 

 Philadelphia market at $1.50 per bushel. I have a remarkably choice stock of this potato this season, \\ hich 1 take pleasure in offering my cus- 

 tomers at the following prices : Pound, 30 cents; 3 pounds, 75 cents, by mail, postpaid. Peck, S1.00; bushel, $2.25; barrel, $4.50. 



CARMAN NO. 1.— The Carman No. 1 is 

 a seedling from seedlings raised through sev- 

 eral generations, with the object of develop- 

 ing good and suppressing undesirable quali- 

 ties. It is intermediate in ripening, and re- 

 sembles the Rural New Yorker No. 2 in shaj e, 

 and also in having very few and shallow 

 eves. The llesh is peculiarly white and qual- 

 ify perfect. A large grower in New Yolk 

 State reports; The tubers were cut to i-inglc 

 eyes, bo as to make the seed go as far as pos- 

 sible. Tiny made the most luxuriant growt h 

 1 ev< r saw from so little seed. This variety is 

 proving to be an enormous producer of very 

 handsome tubers. They grow very large. In 

 fad there are scarcely any small ones among 

 tin in this year. In my opinion, Carman No. 1 

 will make' a great sensation among growers 

 as soon as its enormous productiveness and 

 superior table qualities are known." Lb., 50 

 cts.; 3 lbs.; $1.00, by mail, postpaid. Peek, $3.00 . 



D/vra + rk Q<=>P»H 1 Qave a quantity of 

 rUldIO y er y choice potato 



seed from the flower ball (the true seed) 

 which I am pleased to offer to my customers 

 who would t ry to raise a new kind of potato. 

 The tubers rarelv grow to be more than a 

 half-inch in diameter the first year, but the 

 second they get to be quite respectable rTota- 

 toes, so that we mav judge pretty nearly of 

 their value, though they do not get out for all 

 they are worth until the third year. Pkt., 16c.
