Planted with ordinary Seed about May 10th and photographed July 28th. 
o'/nfir'P •//»/> fl r re P ortec l by our many customers in all parts of the 
^mTtU tP KA, l l/sts ^ IcftfiJ country proves that it is nothing unusual for our 
seed potatoes to increase forty fold over the amount 
planted. That is, you plant one bushel and get forty bushels; you plant the forty bushels and get 1,600 
bushels. With ordinary seed, under like conditions, the increase would not be more than twenty fold, or if you 
plant one bushel you would get twenty bushels ; you plant the twenty bushels and you get 400 bushels — differ- 
ence in favor of improved varieties, 1,200 bushels from one bushel of seed in two years. Are our figures correct? 
After an experience of twenty-five years in the business we can say that we believe they are.

The Best Way to increase your Income is to increase the Yield per Acre instead of 
number of acres used. The first thing necessary is to plant the Best Seed Obtainable. 
then, with good soil and cultivation make one acre produce what two acres have been producing. It can be 
done. You can do it. The successful farmer of the future must do it. It will cost but a trifle to try some or 
all of these varieties, and it may be worth hundreds of dollars to you. The seed has just as much to do with 
the yield as the soil and cultivation. Times are changing. The methods and varieties that were in use in years 
past will not do now. There are better methods of culture which are fully described in our circular, “ Potatoes , 
How to grow them with Profit. 
Larger Crops 
Mean More Money 
There are improved varieties to grow. We are selling them — 
the best in existence. The most successful men in all kinds of 
business are not those who work the hardest but those who 
plan the best and thus obtain better results and avoid the 
failure of those who work harder and plan less. Brains are worth more than muscle. 400 bushels of potatoes 
have often been grown from one acre. How many bushels are you growing per acre ? Decide now to double 
your yield. Do more thinking. Do more planning and you will make more money.

Our Oats yielded 100 bushels per acre. 
“I send you a sample of oats raised by George Goodfellow. 
He had four acres from your seed, from which he threshed 
396 bushels that went through the machine and there were at 
least 15 bushels on the floor not measured, so that they 
actually yielded more than 100 bushels to the acre.”

"Mr. Henry Fisher of Center Co., Pa., harvested three 
barrels of potatoes from 10 pounds of seed which he bought 
last spring. ”
