AN AGRICULTURAL WOND£R. EXTRA EARLY. 
FINE SHAPE. ENORMOUS YIELDS. 
1 A new potato that is certain to take the lead 
with growers who desire a first class early 
variety that is productive and sure to yield a 
good crop, even in the most unfavorable seasons. 
Market gardeners and all others who grow potatoes 
cannot afford to overlook this wonderful variety. Its 
certainty to produce a big crop, fine appearance and 
enormous yields havecallcd forth a testimonial from 
some of the most experienced potato growers in 
America. "The Rural New Yorker" the great 
agricultural paper of the east, says: From 
time to time we have dug a hill of the varieties 
that claim to be the earliest now on trial on 
the Rural grounds. Thus far Algoma, from 
L. L. May & Co. ,pf St. Paul, Minn." has given 
the best yield. It is a most shapel v potato, be- 
ing smooth, oblong and slightly flattened.

formation for a potato, being very
