thoroughly warm. Plant in rows 2% to 3 ft. apart; shelled nuts to be placed 8 to 10 in. apart 
in the rows, but if planted in the hulls, space them 16 to 18 in. apart in the row. Cover with 
2 in. of soil. Cultivate and hoe freely. In the fall, before frost, dig and hang them under a shed 
or in an airy room to cure. A packet will sow from 15 to 25 ft. of row; a pound from 175 to 
300 ft. Use 30 to 45 Ibs. of seed per acre. Seed is shipped in the shell.

Potatoes 


Cut potatoes into 1% in. chunks with at least one eye. 
Plant the divisions in rows 3 ft. apart, 15 to 18 in. apart in 
the row, and cover with 4 in. of soil. 8 to 10 Ibs. of potatoes 
should be sufficient for 100 ft. of row. Use 10 to 12 bu. per 
acre. Cultivate constantly and thoroughly. Potatoes are 
ready for digging when foliage turns yellow. It is most im- 
portant to plant clean potatoes, that is, seed potatoes that 
are free from mosaic, leaf roll, wilt or other disease. Our 
potatoes are certified stock that have been grown in Maine.
