SEED POTATOES (Non-Irrigated) 
IMP. SEMESAN BEL, for Seed Potatoes. Potato diseases 
cause a loss equivalent to the yield of one acre in every 
5 or 6 acres planted. Much of this can be prevented by 
treating seed before planting with Imp. Semesan Bel, the 
instantaneous dip disinfectant. One pound treats 16 to 
22 bushels of seed. See page 32 for prices. 

Our seed potatoes are dryland grown under our personal 
supervision. Selected seed is used and the fields thoroughly 
rogued and only the strong healthy plants left to mature. 
There will very likely be a shortage of some varieties 
and we cannot tell at time of getting this catalog printed 
just what varieties we will have. However, we will try to 
carry the kinds listed. Please write for prices and tell us 
the variety and quantity you are interested in, and we 
will quote promptly.
