SEED POTATOES 
NORTHERN-GROWN CERTIFIED SEED 
For many years we have made a specialty of supplying our trade 
with northern-grown Seed Potatoes. Our stock is especially 
grown for seed, by experienced growers in the cold North 
and Northwest, and is Certified Stock, U.S. Standard No. 1, 
high quality, true to type and free from disease. Seed 
Potatoes that are northern-grown, moved south only from 
100 to 300 miles, frequently produce double the crop of 
home-grown seed. 
We begin shipping Seed Potatoes as 
early in the spring as weather conditions 
will permit, usually the latter part of 
March. However, we urge our customers 
to place their orders early, while our stock 
of all varieties is complete. Owing to the 
perishable nature of Seed Potatoes the 
market is subject to radical changes, 
and it is impossible for us to quote prices 
at the time our Catalogue goes to press. 
Price-list sent on request. 

EARLY VARIETIES 
WARBA. A comparatively new variety. Earlier than Cobbler, a 
heavy yielder and disease-resistant. Has smooth white skin 
and pink eye. Very desirable for the home-garden. 
SPAULDING’S EARLY ROSE. (Certified.) A seedling of the 
Early Rose, with pink skin, pure white flesh, much stronger 
foliage and a better Potato than the Early Rose in every way. 
EARLY OHIO. (Certified.) A sort that is well known by market- 
gardeners who are after a first-early Potato for home trade; the 
tubers are almost round, with pink skin and of excellent quality. 
IRISH COBBLER. (Certified.) An extra-early, round, white 
Potato. Vines yield heavily and the tubers are of extremely 
fine quality. An excellent all-round variety, either for the home- 
garden or growing commercially. About a week to ten days 
later than Early Ohio, but usually much more productive. 
CHIPPEWA. (Certified). About 10 days later than Irish 
Cobbler but superior in smoothness and whiteness. In tests 
it has outyielded Cobblers on both muck and upland soils.

LATE VARIETIES 
KATAHDIN. (Certified.) A handsome, shallow-eyed, glossy, 
white-skinned variety, originated by the U. S. Department of 
Agriculture, which matures a little later than Green Mountain, 
but earlier than the Rurals. It has very few tubers of unmarket- 
able size and has all varieties beaten in uniformity of shape, size, 
and in general appearance. It does well on light, friable soil, 
but is not adapted to heavy soil subject to drought conditions. 
RUSSET. (Certified.) An exceptionally heavy yielder. Table 
quality of the very best, with smooth, velvety, russet skin and 
shallow eyes. It is very fine-grained, cooks as white as flour, 
and is of splendid flavor; an excellent keeper and retains its 
good eating qualities until late in the spring. It is one of the 
hardiest varieties known. Its great productiveness, handsome 
color and resistance to diseases make it a very popular Potato 
and one especially suited to our locality. 
CARMAN No. 3. (Certified.) Extra large, oblong, slightly 
flat, white. Vines are extra-good growers and yield an im- 
mense quantity of tubers of uniform size. One of the best 
late varieties; of excellént quality; good keeper. 
SIR WALTER RALEIGH. (Certified.) The tubers vary from 
round to oblong in shape, uniformly of good size, white- 
skinned and of excellent quality. A good keeper, and, like 
Carman No. 3, a very heavy yielder. 
RURAL NEW YORKER No. 2. (Certified.) The tubers are 
round to oblong, unusually large, white, eyes near the surface, 
and sets as a rule only two to four tubers per plant or hill, but 
usually all large ones. 
IMPROVED GREEN MOUNTAIN. (Certified.) In the 
Improved Green Mountain we have a better Potato than 
was the old Green Mountain at its best. The tubers are 
uniform in shape, oblong, with two good ends, slightly 
flattened, creamy white skin, and pure white flesh of 
excellent quality.
