Fulton Co , Ohio. “After repealed failures in trying to raise 
potatoes I was induced to buy one-half bushel of RosK OF Erin

ever made. Last season I planted five bushels of them on less 
than 56 rods of ground and dug 218 bushels. I cultivated them 
but twice. The ground lias been in constant cultivation for 
twelve years and fertilized but once. These are the greatest 
yielders I ever saw; cook up dry and mealy and are very late 
keepers. Marion Berlin.”
