Golden Rural Potatoes 
GOLDEN RURAL or RURAL RUSSET 
cM-gAaH' Gesiiijjled Seed Potatoes 
Everyone knows the importance of using seed potatoes that are free 
from the diseases that are transmitted by the seed. Diseases such as #* 
mosaic, leaf roll, wilt, etc., may not be very apparent but they reduce the 
yield to a marked degree. The only way to raise potatoes at a profit is to 
plant seed free from these diseases. It wi II I >ay you well to discard your 
old seed and plant only clean seed. 
We sell only New York State Certified potatoes. This assures that you 
get the finest seed potatoes. 
If you want extra early potatoes: 
Try the New WARBA! 
This new potato which was introduced by the Minnesota Experiment 
Station is 10 days earlier than Irish Cobbler and a week earlier than 
Triumph. Comparative tests have shown the yield also to be better 
than the Cobbler. The vines are sturdy, upright and remarkably resist¬ 
ant to disease, especially mosaic. 
The handsome, and distinctive tubers are round and blocky with a 
smooth white skin and a light pink eye. They resemble Cobbler except 
for the pink eye. The flesh is white and of excellent quality. 
This new variety has become a leading early kind both for home use 
and market. 
N. Y. State Certified, U. S. No. 1 . Peck $1.10; Bu. $2.90; Sack 
of 2 Bu. $5.60. Purchaser pays transportation. 
IRISH COBBLER 
This is the most popular early potato and still considered the best in 
this class. It yields better than any other kind (except Warba) that is 
equally early. The potatoes are round, white, have rather deep eyes, of 
fine quality and very early. Much of the Irish Cobbler seed sold is either 
not that variety at all or is mixed with other kinds which are usually 
later and make the crop mature unevenly. The seed we offer is (rue to 
name. 
N. Y. State Certified, U. S. No. 1 . Peck $1.00; Bu. $2.75; Sack 
of 2 Bu. $5.30. Purchaser pays transportation. 
Treat Potatoes with Semesan Bel 
Our pound of the new improved Semesan Bel. will 
treat 50 to 60 bushels of cut potatoes when used ac¬ 
cording to directions. It also possesses great disease con¬ 
trol properties especially in respect to control of Rhizoc- 
tonia and seed-born Scab. The “Instantaneous Dip” 
method of applying new Semesan Bel. saves time and 
labor. Semesan Bel. does not harm the seed pieces. 
4 oz. 45c; 1 lb. 51.50 transportation paid. Not paid: 
5 lb. $6.75. See page 86 for other Semesan products. 
Heaviest Yielding Kind 
We are convinced that this variety will produce larger crops than any 
other kind where conditions of soil and climate suit it, as they do here 
and in a large section of country in the northern states. 
The vines are strong, vigorous and healthy with dark green leaves and 
thick purple stems. They do not usually blight. The potatoes are round, 
flattened, quite shallow and the slightly russet skin is very rarely affected 
with scab. The flesh is pure white, very firm and of fine quality. Each 
hill usually has 7 to 9 good sized potatoes. 
N. Y. State Certified, U. S. No. 1 . Peck 95c; Bu. $2.65; Sack of 
2 Bu. $5.10. Purchaser pays transportation. 
SMOOTH RURALS 
Also called Heavy Weight or No. 9 
This potato has steadily won a place for itself each year near the top of 
the list for yield in New York State. There are very few kinds equal to il. 
The potatoes are round to oblong, have fairly numerous medium shal¬ 
low eyes, purple sprouts, and smooth while skin. The vines are rather 
stocky and very vigorous and resistant to disease. This is one of the besl 
of the Smooth Rural or Carman class and is fast replacing many other 
kinds for the late or main crop. 
N. Y. State Certified, U. S. No. 1 . Peck 95c: Bu. $2.65: Sack of 
2 Bu. $5.10. Purchaser pays transportation. 
GREEN MOUNTAIN 
Grow for Fine Quality 
If you want nice mealy while potatoes of the finest quality raise Green 
Mountains. They are far superior to most of the kinds usually raised. 
The tubers are round, slightly flattened, and have few shallow eyes. 1 he 
skin is white with a slight netting which usually goes with fine quality. 
This is a medium early variety and yields heuv > crops on son suited to 
it. 11 does besl on rather light or gravelly soil and in the northern locali¬ 
ties although it is largely grown and produces great crops on Long Island. 
An excellent kind for New York and all of New England. 
N. Y. State Certified, U. S. No. 1. Peck $1.00: Bu. $- "5; Sack
