WACONIA ORANGE CANE (SORGHUM). 
The Sorghum Cane Seed we offer this year is northern grown, the 
Waconia strain, the same that we have handled in the past but it is Orange 
cane instead of Amber cane. 
Waconia Orange Cane has been recently developed by selected breeding 
over a period of four or five years and it is a great improvement over the 
old strain of Amber cane. It has a stronger germinating seed, better with¬ 
standing unfavorable growing conditions, grows a much heavier but shorter 
stalk, withstands storms and wet weather without lodging and most 
important of all in running tests produces a better quality of syrup 
and more of it per acre. Sow 4 to 8 pounds of seed to the acre for 
sorghum and 15 to 25 pounds for fodder. 
Prices by mail: Lb., 25c. By freight: 5 lbs., 65c; 10 lbs., $1.10; 
100 lbs., $9.25; 500 lbs. at $9.00. Sacks included.

OLDS* SEED POTATOES 
(Plant 8 to 12 bushels to the acre.) 
Olds’ Seed Potatoes have had a national reputation for years. We 
began with nothing but Seed Potatoes 50 years ago. Have made a 
specialty of them ever since. We always have a choice stock and this 
year is no exception. In fact our stock is unusually fine this year. There 
is money in potatoes if you plant the right kind of seed. Use seed that 
was grown for seed. Our seed potatoes are mostly grown on contract 
specially for seed and from select stocks. 
We advise all our customers to cover their seed potato requirements 
early this season. The crop is one of the smallest on record. We look 
to see prices advance considerably by spring. The high prices being 
paid growers for eating potatoes will cause many growers to sell their 
seed stocks which will materially decrease the amount of seed available 
for planting. We were fortunate in having a fair supply of seed, but 
we have less than one-half as much stock as a year ago and expect 
to he sold out early. Our White Beauty Potatoes failed us entirely 
and we advise our customers to use Chippewas in their place this 
season. 
U. S. GOVERNMENT GRADE NO. 1. We 
offer at lower prices, stock of most varieties 
that is uncertified, but that conforms to the 
requirements of U. S. Grade No. 1. That is, 
stock that is practically free from scab, blight, 
dry rot and damage caused by disease and 
graded, to a minimum size of 1 % inches. The 
stock is all northern grown, coming from the 
same sections as the certified stock and prac¬ 
tically pure. It is very desirable seed stock. 
SACKS FREE. We ship our seed potatoes in 
100-pound sacks and these sacks are the unit 
now. 
POTATO PRICES FOR 1937. The prices 
named 1 'in this catalog are good until Feb. 15tli 
only. 
CERTIFIED STOCK. Most of our potatoes are “State Certified.’’ 
bS 1 ® t? 13 * the y wer , e inspected while growing in the field by an 
official state inspector and again in the bin after being dug and both 
times passed the necessary requirements. The stock must be free from 
mixture, free from late blight rot, black leg and powdery scab and con¬ 
form reasonably to the correct vine and tuber characteristics of the 
variety. Official branded sacks and official tags are used for this Cer¬ 
tified Stock. 
RED RIVER IRISH COBBLERS 
Irish Cobbler seems to continue to increase in popularity. People like 
a white potato. It is famous now the countrv over. At first it was 
largely grown for the early market by the truckers of New Jersey and 
Virginia and other Atlantic coast states. From there its popularity has 
extended throughout the whole of the United States and it is a standard 
well known variety now nearly everywhere. 
It is a pure white potato, ‘ nearly round in shape with eyes rather 
more pronounced than in the Early Ohio. It usually outyields Early 
Ohio although not quite as early. 
The potatoes are very attractive looking and of most excellent quality 
rather ahead of all other earlies in that respect, always cooking up 
dry and mealy. This va¬ 
riety will please anyone 
who wants a few earlies 
for home use as well as 
the large grower and the 
market gardener.
