BRECK’S POTATOES 
Growers cannot be too careful of the seed stock that they use for planting. Much loss of time 
and effort and crops of only mediocre yield and quality result from the use of poor seed stocks secured 
from unreliable sources. All varieties listed below are grown in Aroostook County, Maine. The starred 
varieties have been certified as “Seed Stock,” true to name and type and practically free from disease. 
These have been sorted and inspected under the supervision of the State of Maine Department of 
Agriculture and the original two-bushel bags bear the blue tag of certification. 
Early Varieties 
*lrish Cobbler (Certified Stock). A fine and 
always reliable early variety, producing large, 
handsome and quite round tubers, surprisingly 
uniform in size and shape. The skin is very 
light brown, the flesh white, and the quality 
is excellent. A distinct and heavy cropper. 
Chippewau. A splendid new early variety that 
follows Irish Cobbler in maturity. Yields a 
heavy crop of tubers flatter and more oval 
than Green Mountain with shallow eyes and 
smooth, clean white skin. Top quality. 
Early Rose. Standard early variety. Red skin. 
An old favorite in New England. 
tf-oA feetteA Poiatoe.4, 
Agrico 5-8-7 
Use Agrico 5-8-7 for your Potatoes and 
insure a crop of uniform quality and high 
yield. For the home garden the most prac¬ 
tical way to apply the fertilizer is to trench 
out the rows to a depth of 6 inches. Place 
the Agrico in the bottom of this trench at 
the rate of 10 lbs. per 100 feet of row. 
The fertilizer should then be mixed with 
the soil in the bottom of the trench and 
covered with from 2 to 3 inches of soil and 
the seed planted in the usual manner. Be 
sure to have 2 to 3 inches of soil separating 
the fertilizer from the seed so as to prevent 
any possible injury to the seed. 
It pays well to use the right kind of fer¬ 
tilizer for Potatoes. It insures a heavy and 
uniform crop to fertilize with Agrico 5-8-7. 
Late Varieties 
*Green Mountain (Certified Stock). There is 
no finer Potato than this one. Its popularity 
is universal. Does well on all soils and loca¬ 
tions, making strong, healthy vines and pro¬ 
ducing big crops of large, handsome, white¬ 
skinned tubers of flattish, oval form. Superb 
quality and a grand keeper. 
Rural Russet. A selection of the well known 
Dibble’s Russet. Strong, deep-rooted vine. 
Plants resist blight and drought. Tubers ex¬ 
cellent keepers of unsurpassed quality. 
Katahdin. A recently-introduced, late or 
main crop Potato, which matures after Green 
Mountain. It is medium-sized with shallow 
eyes, white skin, and handsome appearance. 
Keeps well and is of superior quality. 
Spaulding Rose. Late. Potatoes large, smooth, 
of excellent quality; red skin. 
QUICK, EASY TREATMENT FOR 
POTATOES 
A Semesan-Bel dip for Potatoes before 
planting will protect them from scab and 
other diseases. Healthy plants will give a 
much higher yield of clean Potatoes. The 
treatment is simple and inexpensive and 
the resulting benefit, great.

of Potatoes) costs only 25c.
