Seed Potatoes 
Early Ohio Potato. 
Red McClure or Peachblow. Well known the country 
over, and very largely planted for main crop. In many 
sections this variety is the rival of the Burbank and is un- 
doubtedly a fine potato. It is one of the most beautiful 
potatoes grown, and will bring more money on most markets 
than any other variety. It is an abundant yielder and a very 
good keeper. One of the leading sorts among the mountain 
growers. 
Russet Burbank or Netted Gem. An oblong, large, white 
potato, with shallow eyes and netted skin. Flesh white, very 
mealy, and fine flavor. Excellent quality. The best and most 
popular baking variety. It seems to be especially adapted 
to our soil and is a very heavy yielder and scab resistant. 
Rural New Yorker. This is the most popular main crop 
potato grown in the Greeley, Colorado, district. It is large, 
oblong, smooth and very attractive.

Potato Eyes by Mail 
We send potato eyes delivered, all transpor¬ 
tation charges paid. We select the seed potatoes, 
using only the smoothest and firmest. Then we 
remove the eyes, leaving enough flesh to assure 
a good plant that will produce potatoes. We 
guarantee these potato eyes to arrive in good 
planting condition. But we advise that you pre¬ 
pare your soil and have things ready for planting 
on arrival of the eyes. Any variety listed, post¬ 
paid, 25 eyes, 20c; 50 eyes, 40c; 100 eyes, 60c; 
300 eyes, $1.50; 500 eyes, $2.25. Write for 
special prices on larger amounts. 
Growers generally have paid little attention to the careful 
selection of seed potatoes. In many instances, culls or un¬ 
marketable potatoes have been used, as well as matured 
potatoes. Planting such stock results in poor yields of inferior 
quality. Many planters ask what is the difference between regu¬ 
lar eating potatoes and seed potatoes? One is, in our selection 
of seed potatoes we intend to eliminate the fully matured 
tubers. Contrary to general opinion, immature seed gives large 
yields as well as increased vigor in vines. 
Culture: Potatoes can be grown in any soil provided it is 
fairly rich, but potatoes usually do best on loose, sandy loam 
and are of better quality than if planted on heavy clay soil. 
Cut the potatoes in 4 or 6 pieces, so there is at least one eye 
on each piece. About 3 pieces should be planted in each hill, 
three to four inches deep, according to the time of planting, in 
rows 3 feet apart and 16 to 18 inches apart in the rows. Keep 
the ground loose about the hills. Do not water unless soil 
becomes quite dry. 
Red River Early Ohio. Our Red River Early Ohio seed 
potatoes are grown in the extreme north of Minnesota, 
where the potato growers have specialized on Early Ohios 
for years and have developed the best type of this variety. 
Seed from this district is one week earlier than home grown 
and our seed is free from scab and the disastrous blight, and 
is the favorite and most prolific potato in this section. Ma¬ 
turing early brings the fancy prices that are paid for the first 
potatoes. This potato can be dug and marketed before it is 
fully matured. 
Early Ohio Colorado Dry-Land Grown. These potatoes 
are grown for us in the dry lands of Elbert County, (known 
as the Divide). It is our desire to have as many of our 
customers as possible order our Red River Early Ohios, 
but those who do not care to pay the advanced prices will 
not be disappointed in our Divide Early Ohios. 
Irish Cobbler or Eureka: An extra early variety, maturing 
only a week or ten days later than the Early Ohios. The eyes 
are strong, well developed, and slightly indented. The flesh is 
creamy white and of fine quality and flavor. 
Bliss Triumphs. A popular early variety and is not liable to 
scab or blight. Tubers are nearly round, with red, smooth 
skin, small shallow eyes, very uniform in size and shape. 
One of the prettiest potatoes grown. Our seed of this variety 
is Dry-land Western-grown and acclimated to the West.
