Spaulding Rose Potatoes 
Maine-Grown Seed Potatoes 
What 66 Certified 99 Means to Potato Growers 
The value of Aroostook-grown Seed Potatoes is unquestionable. 
The Certification Department of the State of Maine plans to safe¬ 
guard the interests of the seed-buyers. Two field inspections are 
made during the growing season and one at digging-time. While 
each carload is being graded an inspector visits several times. 
The maximum size for certified seed has been changed from 14 
to 12 ounces. The Department believes that this size will more 
nearly meet your requirements. 
Irish Cobbler. Select Maine-grown Cobblers, grown from first-class 
seed stock. For many years this has been a popular variety. 
Vines vigorous, producing a good crop of white Potatoes. Irish 
Cobbler is considered the standard Potato for all markets. 
Red Bliss or BNss Triumph. Produces mature Potatoes for table 
use at the earliest possible date. Sometimes called the “Six- 
weeks Potato.” 
Spaulding Rose. Medium early. Skin pale pink; flesh pure white. 
Good yielder. 
Green Mountain. Makes big A crops everywhere on almost any soil. 
Potatoes oval, smooth, white-skinned, and run uniformly large 
in size. * -** 
No. 2 Potatoes from Certified Seed. We will supply Maine-grown 
No. 2 Potatoes from Certified Seed for a little lower price than 
the Certified or Select Stock* The Seed Potatoes are smaller, 
but will cut to better advantage and are more economical for 
planting. Highly recommended for second planting in June 
and July. Our Potatoes are kept in cold storage and are just 
as solid and firm in July as in March. 
Katahdin. This new Potato, introduced by the Maine Experimen¬ 
tal Station, promises to be an outstanding 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 bushels per acre 
of the Katahdins on his 1937 crop. Our stock is Maine-grown 
from seed that was supplied by the Maine Experimental Station. 
The Potato market is too unsettled to quote prices.

Prevents diseases and stimulates the plants.
