Potatoes, Rural Russet 
BRECK’S POTATOES 
Potatoes are such a staple product of the soil that we are apt to forget the thrill that comes 
from digging new Potatoes right out of the garden and serving them “just plain boiled” 
with their jackets on. Home-grown Potatoes make us wonder why we ever eat the ordinary 
kind the rest of the year. Those who have the land are missing something if they don’t grow 
enough Potatoes for their own Summer and Autumn consumption. 
*The Certified Irish Cobbler and Green Mountain Potatoes supplied by us are shipped in 
full bags of 2 bushels or 120 pounds, with the blue tag attached by the Inspector from the 
Agricultural Department of the State of Maine, which certifies that the Potatoes have been 
carefully grown, sorted and inspected under the supervision of the Department of Agriculture 
for the State of Maine, insuring stock which is practically free from disease, of vigorous growth 
and true to name and type. We recommend planting only the Certified Stock of these 
two varieties.

PARSLEY 
No really particular housewife can do 
without Parsley for garnishing. Aside from 
this common use, good cooking cannot be 
done without it because of the delicious 
flavor it imparts to sauces, gravies, and 
soups. Parsley is the finest border plant we 
have for the vegetable garden, and it is the 
simplest thing in the world to grow, and 
always hard to get when you want it most. 
Was ever a truer word said? Grow Parsley. 
Don’t argue. It should be in every garden.
