“ The Bovee Potatoes from you did spendidly. 
From the half a peck planted 1 dug 3 bushels.” 
A. C. M0DENBAC1I, St. Mary’s, Pa. 
•*The Bovee is the best early potato we ever had; 
they yield well, are so dry and mealy, and of such ex¬ 
cellent flavor that we shall plant them again.” 
J. E. A. GIBBS, llaphine, Va. 
* i Let me say that the Bovee Potato has proved 
a great success with me. A Ithough we have had a 
serious drought, and the soil was light ayid sandy, 
the potato has done remarkably well. I begun to 
dig them the first week in July; they arc large and 
fine.” — WM. E. IF HE BLOCK, East Hampton, 
N. Y. 
"The Bovee Potatoes yielded well and I am 
more than satisfied. I shall plant them and dis¬ 
card the Early Ohio.”—CIIAS. 11. CARPENTER, 
Kansas City, Kans. 
Your Bovee is the earliest potato raised in 
this section as varieties planted earlier failed, and 
those planted with mine were two to three weeks 
later.” — LOUIS R. SMITH, Takoma Park.D. C. 
“ The. Bovee is at least 12 days earlier than 
Early Ohio. The almost perfect shape of the Bovee 
would win the prize every time over the poorly 
shaped Early Ohio. Will yield more per acre, with 
a smaller jiroportion of unmarketable tubers .”— 
THE RURAL NEW-YORKER. 
^/HEN we introduced Henderson’s Bovee Potato, our own tests and the opinions 
of others led us to claim a good deal for it, and our confidence has not been mis¬ 
placed. Not only is it the earliest, but it takes a leading place among the heavy crop¬ 
ping varieties, an unusual thing among first earlies. It is even earlier than Early Ohio, 
and compares favorably with Triumph, a light-cropping variety that has only extreme 
earliness to recommend it, while the Bovee in all competitive trials has outyielded 
all the early Potatoes, and in many of the tests conducted by Experiment Stations and 
private growers it has outyielded even the late varieties. The vine is dwarf and stocky, 
enabling it to be planted six inches closer than nearly all other varieties, which results 
in a much larger return per acre, and is a feature of the utmost value where land is valu¬ 
able. The tubers grow remarkably close, all bunched together in the hill close up to the 
vine. They grow to a marketable size more evenly than any Potato we ever saw; 
none too large or too small; practically the whole crop being merchantable and the quality 
is perfect. We have only one warning — it is apt to prove disappointing on poor soil 
or with poor cultivation, as it sets so freely the tubers are apt to be small. But on good 
Potato ground, well fertilized and cultivated, no other early Potato to-day compares 
with it. (See cut.)
