MAINE OR NORTHERN GROWN SEED POTATOES. 



The soil best suited to the Potato is a rich, sandy loam, but it seems to thrive in almost any soil or climate. The Potato being a 

 gross feeder, requires a liberal application of manure. If stable manure Is to be used, it should be well rotted, and not allowed to come 

 In contact with the tubers. On no other crop are the results from the use of phosphates so manifest as on the Potato. Almost invariably 

 the tubers are smoother, brighter and freer from rust and the destructive influence of wire worms. GRIFFITH & TURNER CO.'S 

 PLANT FOOD is especially adapted for Potatoes, as it promotes growth and at the same time prevents disease. Plant as early In the 

 spring as the ground can be thoroughly worked in rows three feet apart and one foot in the rows, covering in light, warm soil about 

 four inches, and in cold, wet ground three inches deep : draw the earth to the plants as they advance in growth. The soil should be con- 

 Stantly stirred through the season to prevent the surface from baking. 



G. & T. CO.'S EXTRA EABLT PRIZE. — This Potato is in all 

 respects a very superior early sort. It proved to be the earliest 

 and most productive of any we tried; also found its eating 

 qualities first-class. We consider it the best early Potato on 

 the market today. Peck, 60c. Bushel, $1.90. Barrel, $4.90. 



BLISS TRIUMPH. — This beautiful variety combines the 

 jwonderful productiveness of the Peerless, with all the good 

 qualities of the Early Rose; is much more productive, and ma- 

 tures its crop at least a week in advance of the Early Rose. 



Feck, 50c. Bushel, $1.80. Barrel Sack, $4.75. 



MAINE, or HOULTON EARLY ROSE. — The Early Rose led 

 the list for over 30 years, and is today one of the best early 

 market Potatoes. Our stock of this is grown on new land, near 

 Houlton, Maine; is rugged and pure, and produces as good 

 irops as those which made the Early Rose famous in its early 

 fears. Remember that this stock is not to be confounded with 

 the old run-out Rose, grown in other sections.

EARLY NORTHER This superb Potato originated at Cari- 

 bou, Maine. It resembles the Early Rose in shape and color, 

 matures earlier ttian the Rose, and is much more productive.

 than the Rose, matured earlier, and was in all respects 

 superior. Feck, 50c. Bushel, $1.75. Barrel Sack, $4.50.

quality and productiveness.

ahead of the Early Ohio. Shape chunky, eyes strong and 

 deeply set, skin netted, flesh white, quality very superior. 

 The writer's attention was called to this variety while 

 on a tour of inspection, and we concluded to place it in our 

 collection, and find after two years' experience that it is a 

 very superior variety. Don't fail to get it.
