Sir Walter Raleigh Potato 
Sir Walter Raleigh is one of the best varieties for a main crop, and is admirably 
adapted to general cultivation. The vines are of average size, but so vigorous that 
they stand erect long enough to allow necessary cultivation. It produces an 
extremely large crop of round, slightly flattened tubers, smooth, white skinned, 
and very attractive in appearance. 
Its remarkably good quality is greatly improved when properly stored in a cool, 
dry cellar. When cooked it breaks up thoroughly, presenting a flaky, snowy 
appearance, at once appetizing and indicative of its superior flavor. (See cngrav - 
ing.) Price, $1.60 peck, $5.50 bushel, $11.00 barrel of 165 pounds net weight. By 
express or freight at purchaser’s expense. 
Henderson’s Early Puritan Potato 
A valuable early sort, which produces a heavy crop of roundish-oval tubers of 
good average size. Both flesh and skin are white. The plant is strong and resists 
disease well. The flesh is of fine texture, and when cooked is dry, floury and full- 
flavored. Price, $1.60 peck, $5.50 bushel, $11.00 barrel of 165 pounds net weight. 
By express or freight at purchaser’s expense. 
Henderson’s Late Puritan Potato 
One of the best large Potatoes. The tubers are rather long, white and smooth 
skinned. The vines are of medium length, robust in habit and very healthy, which 
ensures great freedom from disease and a thoroughly ripened crop. It is a sure and 
safe cropper and one of the best keepers in cultivation. The flesh is pure white, 
mealy and perfect in texture and of particularly good quality. Price, $1.60 peck, 
$5.50 bushel, $11.00 barrel. By express or freight at purchaser’s expense. 
“ The city editor stands a good chance to get a lot of potatoes free. He brought in to the News 
office, this morning, some of Henderson's early potatoes measuring six inches long and several 
inches in diameter. He said if anybody brought in any as good they could have the whole lot, but 
if not as good then all would go to him. So far they are mounting up, and it looks as if a deserv¬ 
ing newspaper man is going to gel a lot of potatoes.”, 
June 22, 1917. J. C. HANSON, Opelika, Ala. 
aKff 1 Uncle Sam Potato 
Uncle Sam is a particularly fine potato with phenomenal cropping qualities. # We believe it to be 
the heaviest yielding variety grown. On a loam or sandy soil it is a wonder in yield and quality. 
The crop averages remarkably regular in size and shape. Its appearance and superb quality when 
served satisfy the most fastidious, its flaky snow-white appearance gaining instant favor. 
The tubers are oval shaped, with light russet skin, very even in outline and with shallow eyes 
Its handsome appearance and perfect form always ensure a fancy price on the market. (See en¬ 
graving.) Price, $1.60 peck, $5.50 bushel, $11.00 barrel of 165 pounds net. By express or freight 
at purchaser’s expense. 
11 About fifteen years ago I bought the Uncle Sam seed potatoes from you, and have found them to be very good 
indeed.”

"I uas very much pleased with results from your potato seed last year.”

IMPROVED 
Green Mountain 
Potato 
A-reliable medium late Potato which is 
rapidly increasing in popularity — in fact, 
in some sections it has superseded all 
other main crop varieties. It seems to 
thrive in all soils and in all localities, 
making heavy, healthy vines, and yield¬ 
ing big crops of large, smooth, white 
skinned tubers of handsome flatfish oval 
form. It cooks white, dry and mealy, 
and has a desirable flavor exclusively its 
own. It keeps well, and is not liable to 
scab or decay. Price, $1.60 p«ck, $6.50 
bushel, $11.00 barrel of 165 pounds net 
weight. By express or freight at pur¬ 
chaser’s expense. 
“ The Green Mountain Potatoes I bought 
from you two years ago, gave far belter results 
than Potatoes purchased from local dealers.” 
THOMAS P. GARRISON, Fairton. N. J. 
“ We got over five bushels of fine Potatoes from 
one peck of your Green Mountain Potato Seed
