Of the many varieties of potatoes that claim public favor, we have 
selected only a few, and these the best in cultivation. We aim to include 
in our list only those sorts which we have found by actual test are worthy 
of cultivation. Orders will be booked as received, and shipped in rotation, after danger of freezing 
is over; and as potatoes are of a perishable character, we assume no responsibility for damages 
incurred in transit, but we will, of course, exercise the greatest care to guard against sudden changes 
in the temperature. Allt he potatoes we ojfer are grown from selected stock especially for seed purposes. 
They are calculated to give he best results to planters , and when compared with common stocks will more 
than pay tn increased crop for the small extra cost of seed, while the quality will be better and more 
uniform . Ten to 12 bushels will plant an acre. l6 - j b
