The value of Aroostook grown seed potatoes 
is unquestionable. The Certification Depart¬ 
ment of State of Maine plans to safeguard the 
interests of the seed buyers. Two field inspec¬ 
tions are made during the growing season and 
one at digging time. While each carload is being 
graded, an inspector visits several times. This 
year the maximum size for 
certified seed has been 
changed from 14 oz. to 12 oz. 
The Department believes that 
this size will nearly meet your 
requirements. 
Irish Cobbler 
An early white-skinned vari¬ 
ety, very short, thick and inclined 
to be shaped round. This variety 
is yearly increasing in popularity 
for early markets. The crop is 
ready about 10 days earlier than 
Early Rose. The vines are very 
stocky, vigorous, and not as liable to be affected 
with blight or suffer drought as most other va¬ 
rieties. Owing to the fact that the Cobbler with¬ 
stood the severe drought last season better than 
other varieties, it is probable that there will be a 
larger demand than usual this season. We advise 
ordering early. 
IRISH COBBLERS 
Bliss Triumph 
This season we will be able to supply Certified 
Bliss Triumphs. Maine Grown. This is an early 
variety, deep red, round, very smooth and a fine 
quality cooker. This variety is planted extensively 
in the south. 
Chippewa 
This is the newest Variety introduced by the 
Maine experimental station. Matures a trifle later 
than the Cobblers, but earlier than the Katahdins. 
Round in shape. This last year it has out yielded 
the Cobblers, wherever planted. One grower in New 
York State reports digging 2,000 bushels from 3 3/5 
acres. You will not go wrong in planting some of 
this variety. See price list. 
Katahdins 
This new variety was introduced by the Maine 
Experimental Station, promises to be an outstand¬ 
ing variety. Matures about midway between the 
Cobbler and Green Mountain. Round in shape, eyes 
very shallow. Very heavy yielder. Clarence Sand¬ 
burg of Colorado has reported a yield of 742 bush¬ 
els per acre of the Katahdins on his 1934 crop. Our 
stock is Maine Grown from seed that was supplied 
by the Maine Experimental Station. See price list. 
Blue Victor 
We have a very limited amount of Certified Blue 
Victor Seed Potatoes this year. This is a round, 
late variety. Flesh is snow white, superior cooker, 
and one of the best keepers for late spring. The 
Skin is blue. We cannot get any more after our 
first supply is sold. Don’t wait if you want any 
Blue Victors. See price list. 
Russets 
One of the best for main crop cultivation. Sim¬ 
ilar to the Raleigh in shape of tuber but has a rus¬ 
set skin and few eyes. This is a very hardy sort 
and usually produces good yields even when seasons 
are unfavorable. Vines grow vigorous, have fine 
blight resisting qualities and usually remain green 
until late in fall. This variety outyielded other 
varities two to one in many sections last season, 
planted side by side. The stock we offer this season 
are Certified Maine grown. 
Improved Green Mountains 
This variety has proved to be 
the surest cropper, a most profit¬ 
able sort to grow. The skin is 
pure white, slightly netted. The 
quality is one of the best. Keeps 
excellently and its fine table qual¬ 
ities make it one of the foremost 
sorts in the large City markets. 
Shippers prefer this variety and 
frequently pay a premium. Best 
for loose and muck soils, and es¬ 
pecially adapted for Northern 
states. Plant this variety and in- 
crease your profits _
