The Early Buckeye 
Formerly “Seedling No. 66” 1 
A New, Extra Early Pink Potato 
History and Description 
Originated in the State of Ohio, known as the Buckeye State, from a seed ball 
of the Early Ohio. Was first sold by us under our trial grounds name of “Seed- 
ling 66.’’ In the Prize Competition amongst our customers for a name, the one selected was the Early Buckeye. The 
name being suggested by Wm. Campbell of Venango Co., Pa. 
Vines are stocky and thrifty ; the tubers are slightly 
longer than the Ohio type ; the skin is a light pink, 
flecked with slight risings like the Ohio. When peeled 
and cooked these potatoes are as white as snow and are 
first quality. Eyes almost entirely flush with surface. 
Big Profits in Early Potatoes 
If there is a good local market for early potatoes, then 
the thing to do is to plant the best yielding and very 
earliest potato, and you can be sure that the 
Early Buckeye will give an ENORMOUS 
YIELD and be FIRST IN MARKET 
and the ground will be cleared in time for a second crop 
of something else the same season. We have realized 
Over $200,00 per Acre 
on early potatoes side by side with other growers who 
did not get $60. A week's difference in maturing and a 
•mailer yield tell the story of the $60 crop. 
Not what WE THINK Early Buckeye will yield, but 
what IT HAS YIELDED for our customers. 
These yields are reported in letters on file in our offices and 
in many cases are sworn to before a Justice or Notary, and 
every report is to the best of our knowledge and belief 
absolutely true. 
These yields were grown from 3 pounds of seed:
