WHEN we introduced Henderson's Bovee Potato, our own tests and the 

 opinions of others led us to claim a good deal for it, and our confidence 

 has not been misplaced. Not only is it the earliest, but it takes a 

 leading place among the heavy cropping varieties, an vinusua! thing among 

 first earlies. It is even earlier than Early Ohio, and compares favorablv ^^ ith 

 Triumph, a light-cropping variety that has only extreme earlmess to recommend 

 it, while the Bovee in all competitive trials has outyielded all the early Potatoes 

 and in many of the tests conducted by Experiment Stations and private growers it 

 has outyielded even the late varieties. The vine is dwarf and stocky, enabling it to 

 be planted six inches closer than nearly all other varieties, which "results in a much 

 larger return per acre, and is a feature of the utmost value where land is valuable The 

 tubers grow remarkably close, all bunched together in the hill close up to the vine' Thev 

 grow to a marketable size more evenly than any Potato we have ever seen; none too large 

 or too small; practically the whole crop being merchantable and the qualitv is perfect. 

 We have only one warning— it is apt to prove disappointing on poor soil "or with poor 

 cultivation, as it sets so freely the tubers are apt to be small. But on good Potato ground, 

 well fertilized and cultivated, no other early Potato to-day compares with it. (See cut.)

WHAT OUR CUSTOMERS SAY OF IT: 



" The Bovee Potatoes from you did ependidly. From the half a peck planted I 

 dug 3 bushels." A. C. MODENBACH, St. Mary's, Pa. 



" The Bovee is the best early potato we ever had; they yield well, are so dry and 

 mealy, and of such excellent flavor that we shall plant them again." 



J. E. A. GIBBS, Raphine, Va. 



"Let me say that the Bovee Potato has proved a great success with me. Although 



we have had a serious drought, and the soil was light and sandy, the potato has done 



remarkably well. I begun to dig them the first week in July: they arc large and fine." 



WM. E. WHEELOCK, East Hampton, N. Y. 



" The Bovee Potatoes yielded well and I am more than satisfied. I shall plant 



them and discard [the Early Ohio."—CHAS.H. CARPENTER, Kansas City, Kans. 



" Your Bovee is the earliest potato raised in this section as varieties planted earlier 



failed, and those planted with mine were two to three weeks later." 



LOUIS R. SMITH, Takoma Park, D. C. 

 "The Bovee is at least IS days earlier than Early Ohio. The almost perfect 

 shape of the Bovee would win the prize every time over the poorly shaped Early 

 Ohio. Will yield more per acre, with a smaller proportion of unmarketable tubers." 



THE RURAL NEW-YORKER: 



NEW EARLY POTATO, NOROTON BEAUTY. 



One of the most valuable new potatoes introduced for several 

 years. It is one of the earliest, one of the handsomest and one of 

 the most productive of the extra earlies. The tubers grow closely 

 in the hill, average very uniform in size and shape, and mature all 

 together. They are of good size, nearly round, with few and shallow 

 eyes and smooth russet skin with rosy tinges. The flesh is white, 

 dry and mealy, and of superb quality. Although Noroton Beauty is 

 so early, yet it is a good cropper and a splendid keeper. 



The plant is quite distinct, growing compact and erect with 

 broad deep green foliage, its luxuriance being maintained until the 

 tubers ripen, when the vine dies completely down to the ground.
