all you claim for it, giving a large 
yield and of No. i quality.” 
Mr. Beckwith bought seed of the 
King of Michigan from us for his June 
planting in preference to any other 
variety we offered and at much great¬ 
er price which is conclusive evidence 
that we are not the only ones who 
think it a good one. 
Mr. Sackett, of Fairmont, Minn., 
writes: “The half peck of King of 
Michigan potatoes you sent me last 
April yielded a little more than 2 l / 2 
bushels of good-sized, smooth tubers; 
quality very fine; none of them rot¬ 
ted. Other varieties near them rotted 
considerable. The season was too 
wet here for the best results from 
any seed planted; but I am positive 
that King of Michigan is one of the 
finest varieties that I have ever tested 
“The King of Michigan is all right. 
From one-half bushel of seed I dug 
24 bushels of the verv best potatoes. 
They are fine.” 
Mr. Cronk, of Oregon, Wis., writes: 
“King of Michigan is fine in every 
way—no rot on any; very few small 
ones; even and nice. Surely you have 
a good one.” 
Mr. Clark, of Centerville, Iowa, 
writes: “The King of Michigan po¬ 
tatoes gave entire satisfaction; had 
a good crop considering the wet sea¬ 
son. The other potatoes we got of 
you gave satisfaction.” 
Mr. Root, of Hopkinton, Iowa, un¬ 
der date of January 31, 1902, writes: 
“The King of Michigan did finely with 
me. The bushel I got of you gave me 
19 bushels of fine potatoes. They en¬ 
tirely outyielded Selzer’s Million Dol- 
WHITTEN'S WHITE MAMMOTH. 
and I have tried a good many.” 
J. W. Howard, of Woodward Co., 
Okla., writes: “The King of Michigan 
potato is one of the best I ever raised; 
large, and full in the hill. The Pin- 
gree was the finest I ever raised.” 
Mr. Young, of Skowhegan, Maine, 
writes: “King of Michigan is highly 
satisfactory in every particular.” 
Mr. Enos, of Elgin, Iowa, writes: 
lar right alongside, also Sir Walter 
Raleigh, and even fully equal to Car¬ 
man No. 3” 
Mr. Walburn, of Jonestown, Pa., 
writes: “I must tell you something 
about the King of Michigan. The 
King did very well for me. The one 
pound gave me nearly one-half bush¬ 
el, just as nice potatoes as I ever had. 
They are a pleasure to gaze upon.”
