POTATOES 
TRIED AND PURE 
We offer a few varieties of special merit that we recom¬ 
mend. We think it is folly to plant ordinary or common 
stock. Many gardeners insist on the best vegetable seeds, 
then plant any old kind of potatoes. Get a start of some of 
our select seed stock and you will be more than pleased with 
the results. 
Remember. — Potato prices subject to market changes. 
Quantity prices on request. Write,when ready to buy and 
state quantity wanted. 
Improved Burbank. The standard and most popular com¬ 
mercial variety. We offer improved re-selected, healthy stock, 
grown especially for seed purposes. 
“Earliest of All.” Its quick growth and early maturity com¬ 
bined with its excellent cooking qualities, makes it very valu¬ 
able. Summer drought does not affect it, for its growth is 
complete before it can be injured. Plant early to obtain large 
size. Ready for table nine weeks from planting, and fully 
matured in 12 weeks. 
Netted Gem. Also known as “Russet Burbank,” “Yakima 
Gem,” etc. A splendid main-crop variety, with a russet or 
netted skin, flesh white, excellent quality, shallow eyes. We 
offer healthy, heavy producing stock. 
Early Rose. This variety has been a great favorite for many 
years and many growers still claim that it has never been 
excelled in quality and productiveness. Potatoes are long in 
shape, good size and light pink in color at the bud end. They 
cook mealy and are of the finest flavor.

able.

SALSIFY, Vegetable Oyster

cause the roots to become irregular and branched. Sow early 
and quite deep, giving the general culture recommended for 
Parsnip. 
Mammoth Sandwich Island. Large and strong growing with 
long, smooth, white, tapering roots less likely to branch than 
those of other sorts. Pkt. 5c; oz. 15c; lb. 50c.
