Grow Potatoes tor the Family 
CERTIFIED SEED POTATOES 

We wish to pay tribute to the boys and girls of America who gave 
so freely of their time in the harvesting of the largest vegetable 
crop in the history of this country. With the help of Eleanor and 
other high school girls like her we were able to harvest our potato 
crop before freezing weather. 
PASTURE MIXTURE 
1943 CORNELL SPECIAL PASTURE MIXTURE: 
This mixture is intended for use on good land which 
has been adequately fertilized, and under conditions 
which will permit good grazing management practices 
to be adopted. It should be seeded in April or May 
without a nurse crop. Full information concerning 
methods of fertilizing, seeding and grazing manage- 
ment will be found in Cornell University Extension 
Bulletin No. 393 entitled “Pasture Improvement and 
Management” which is obtainable free of charge 
from the Office of Publications, Roberts Hall, Cornell 
University, Ithaca, New York. Cornell Pasture 
Mixture is made up as follows: Kentucky bluegrass 
40%, Canada bluegrass 8%, Perennial ryegrass 16%, 
heetue 24%, Yellow trefoil 8%, Wild white Se 
4%. The recommended seeding of Cornell Pasture 
Mixture is 25 lbs. per acre. 5 to 25 Ibs. 30 cts. per 
Ib.; 25 to 100 lbs. 28 cts. per lb.; 100 lbs. or over 
273 % cts. per lb., Prepaid. 
Pastures used to be thought of as something that 
took care of themselves. Now we are finding that 
often under proper management twice as many cows 
can be kept on an acre of permanent pasture. The 
country is now feeling the lack of dairy products. 
This shortage will probably be worse as the war 
progresses and the demand will continue long after 
peace is declared. Dairy cows have been slaugh- 
tered in great numbers in many parts. of the world. 
We will have to supply these countries with milk, 
butter and cheese until these dairy Sates § can be built 
up again. Better write today toN Y.S. College of 
Agriculture, Ithaca, N. Y. for bulletin No. 393 on 
“Pasture Improvement and Management”. 
SENECA: 100 days. 
MANCHU: 
CAYUGA: 90 days. 

PRINCE EDWARD ISLAND CERTIFIED IRISH 
COBBLERS: This seed was grown on Prince Edward 
Island, Canada. Weather and soil conditions there 
are ideal for the production of Cobbler potatoes. 
Prince Edward Island seed of this variety is much 
more vigorous and produces a larger yield than seed 
grown farther south. 
The tubers are clean, very smooth and of a uni- 
form size. This stock is inspected and certified by 
the Canadian Government. 
We have handled Prince Edward Island Cobblers 
for a number of years and have had growers report 
crops yielding as high as 300 bushels per acre. 
1 peck by Parcel Post $1.25 Prepaid; 100 lb. bag 
$5.25, Not prepaid. 
CERTIFIED SEBAGO: A new variety that we believe 
will largely replace the smooth rural and russet. 
Sebago is earlier than these older varieties and far 
more resistant to disease and insects. The quality 
and appearance are excellent. 1 peck by Parcel 
Post $1.00, Prepaid; 100 lb. bag $4.50, Not pre- 
paid. 
CERTIFIED CHIPPEWA: A new white variety origi- 
nated by the U. S. Department of Agriculture. A 
week later than Irish Cobbler but is smoother in 
shape and it yields better. 1 peck by Parcel Post 
$1.10, Prepaid; 100 lb. bag $4.75, Not prepaid. 
SOY BEANS 
The new early yellow variety 
that will, we believe, take the place of Cayuga for 
grain in the northeast. Larger plant than Cayuga 
and yields much heavier. A very desirable variety 
for feeding or processing for oil. 
Seneca Soy Beans should be planted in 28 inch 
rows and cultivated or sowed with a grain drill 
using every other tooth. Because of size of plant it 
is not advisable to sow closer than 14 inch rows. 
Where 14 inch rows are used cultivating can be done 
with spike tooth drag or rotary hoe. 3 to 4 pecks 
will sow an acre in 14 inch rows. % bu. $2.30; bu. 
$4.25; 4 bu. or more $4.00 per bu., Not prepaid. 
110 days. A tall, late, stiff strawed 
variety that is suitable for hay or green manure. It 
is also adapted to planting with corn for silage. 
\% bu. 2.00; 1 to 4 bu. $3.50 per bu.; 4 bu. or 
more $3.40 per bu., Not prepaid. 
Cayuga has an upright habit of 
growth with few branches, 2% to 3 feet high. The 
stiff stalk bears a profusion of pods containing 2 or 3 
small black beans. 
We have found that under our conditions the most 
economical way to grow Cayuga Soy Beans is to drill 
them about June 10th on a clean piece of ground us- 
ing all the runs in the grain drill and seeding at the 
rate of 1% bu. per acre. If weeds are a problem 
when the bean plants are 3 to 4 inches high a weeder 
or spike tooth drag should be used. When ripe they 
can be cut with a combine or grain binder and 
threshed. Suitable for stock feeding, also for an 
early hay crop. % bu. $2.00; 1 to 4 bu. $3.60 per 
bu.; 4 bu. or more $3.50 per bu., Not prepaid. 
Do not fail to inoculate soy beans 
with Legume-Aid.
