OLDS' WHITE BEAUTY NEW LATE POTATO 
YIELD RECORD, 534 BUSHELS PER ACRE. 
Olds’ White Beauty was introduced by us in 1919 as a 
heavy yielding, high quality, main crop variety. It has 
a distinct origin starting from a seed ball in 1911. It 
continues to be very popular with our customers and we 
always sell out all the stock we have at a premium over 
other varieties. 
Description. Olds’ White Beauty is just the type that is 
wanted for an all-around, main crop, white-skinned potato. 
It is. the right shape, nearly round to oval oblong; sym¬ 
metrical and regular in form; eyes very shallow, so shallow 
that as one of our customers says: “You hardly know 
they have an eye’’; beautiful white skin, slightly russeted; 
strong, vigorous grower, with dark stalks and purple blos¬ 
soms. Season medium, a little earlier than Rural. While 
it resembles Rural it is better. It is slightly russet like 
the old Snowflake, indicating quality. 
Olds’ White Beauty was given an official yield record 
of 466 bushels per acre at the North Dakota Experiment 
Station. Now we have a report from one of our West Vir¬ 
ginia customers, Mr. Fred J. Hefner, of a yield of 267 
bushels from y 2 acre or 534 bushels per acre. 
The White Beauties we have to offer this year were 
grown for us in Sawyer County, northern Wisconsin, but 
our stock is very short. 
The stock is all State Certified, being certified as 
RURALS as the State calls our White Beauty “a very 
desirable strain of Rurals.’’

“Olds’ seeds always give good results with a fair year for 
growth. Olds’ seeds always for Clarks.”—Clark Bros., Illi¬ 
nois. 
“ Was so well pleased with my seeds from you last year 
so am sending my order again this year.” — Mrs. Lyon, Illi¬ 
nois. 
“I sent for some aster seeds from you last year and they 
were beautiful in spite of the drought.”—Mabel F. Boling, 
Illinois. 
“Every one of your seeds I planted has come up it seems 
doublefold. My garden looks fine. Thanks to Olds.” — Mrs. 
M. Edge, Illinois. 
OLDS’ NEW CHIPPEWA 
Here is a new late potato just introduced by the U. S. 
Department of Agriculture which in trials has proven out¬ 
standing for the northern states. It is resistant to mild 
mosaic and a heavy yielder. The Grand Rapids Station re¬ 
ports a yield of 464 bushels to the test plot. Mr. R. L. 
Donovan of the Grand Rapids Station states that Chippewa 
will replace the old standard varieties and outyield them by 
a large margin. This year it won the sweepstakes at the 
Minnesota State Fair. We recommend it to Wisconsin 
potato growers as it is earlier than Green Mountain and 
other late potatoes and because it is a handsome potato 
and a heavy yielder. The skin is velvety white, has shallow 
eyes and is oblong in shape. This variety is described 
and pictured on page 4 of this book. Order your stock 
early as seed is very limited this season. 
Price, U. S. Grade No. 1: Pk., $1.10; bu., $3.00; 100 
lbs., $4.75. 
IMPROVED RURAL NEW 
YORKER. 
MOST POPULAR MAIN CROP POTATO IN NEARLY 
ALL SECTIONS 
Rural New Yorker is by far the most popular main crop 
variety in cultivation today. Its outstanding characteris¬ 
tics are its beautiful smooth white skin, its inconspicuous 
eyes and its great yielding qualities. It does the best of 
any variety as a rule on clay soils and black soils and in 
fact it is the universal potato for all soils. It will probably 
stand more neglect and do better under unfavorable con¬ 
ditions than any other variety. It is easily grown, a good 
keeper and always yields well. As a rule the quality is 
all right too. 
Rurals _ throughout the country are badly mixed with 
other varieties. Such stock does not bring the top price. 
We have not only pure Rurals but an improved strain of 
Rurals, all northern Wisconsin grown, from Sawyer County 
and other northern counties. Ask for prices in large 
quantities and for new prices after February 15th.
