Early White Rose 
A«M 
POTATOES 
10 lbs. to 100-foot row. For spring crop 600 lbs. to acre; 
800 lbs. for early crop. 
Culture When planting in sandy loam plant deeper than in 
u e heavier ground, an average depth being about 5 inches. 
Cut the potatoes with two or three eyes to each piece and plant 14 
inches apart in the rows, with rows 30 to 36 inches apart. It is ad¬ 
visable to allow the cut pieces to dry or heal for 24 hours before 
planting and many growers make a practice of dusting with sulphur 
or lime. Semesan Bel is now being extensively used for treatment of 
potato seed, for the prevention of seed borne diseases. Where pota- 
tos follow alfalfa or Melilotus good crops can usually be had without 
the use of commercial fertilizers, however, it is usually profitable to 
use a good potato fertilizer. Keep soil moist at all times. When cul¬ 
tivating throw the soil toward the plants a little higher each time 
until the ridges are 6 to 10 inches high and proportionately broad so 
that the tubers will be kept cool and free from tuber moth infection. 
All seed potatoes are subject to rigorous 
rotaro Inspection inspection by County Horticultural authori¬ 
ties, thus ensuring great protection to the grower.

DIP TREATMENT OF POTATOES 
To growers who wish to disinfect potatoes before planting, we 
highly recommend SEMESAN BEL, a preparation designed specifically 
to furnish an easy, rapid and simple method of seed potato disinfec¬ 
tion. SEMESAN BEL dries quickly on the seed, forming a thin coat¬ 
ing of disinfectant. Surface-borne organisms of rhizoctonia, scab and 
black leg are usually destroyed. The treatment also frequently pro¬ 
motes more uniform germination of seed pieces and often improves the 
stand and the vigor of the plants. SEMESAN BEL readily mixes with 
cold water. One pound will make 10 quarts of dip and will treat 
approximately 1,200 lbs. of whole or large seed pieces and about 850 
lbs. of small or cut seed. Prices: (4 oz. tin 50c) (J lb. tin $1.75)

CULTURE: Sow early in April 
4 feet apart in rows 6 feet 
apart. Always use the early va¬ 
riety because the late varieties 
may not mature before frost. 
We offer only the early variety. 
It is easily grown from seed if 
planted after ground is warm. 
The calyx surrounding the 
seed pod is used for making 
jelly and jam, which is consid¬ 
ered by many to be superior to 
Guava or Currant jelly. It is 
grown extensively in Australia 
and the Famous Queensland 
jelly is shipped to all parts of 
the world. 
After the flower petals fall 
remove calyxes from seed pod. 
To four solid quarts of calyxes 
add 1 quart of cold water; boil 
unt;f tender. Strain through 
cheesfe cloth, but do not 
squeeze. Measure the juice by 
the cup; measure an equal 
number of cups of sugar, which 
.should be placed in the oven to 
heat. Boil the juice 20 minutes, 
add the hot sugar, boil 3 min¬ 
utes, strain once more into
