MAINE- GROWN 
CERTIFIED SEED POTATOES 
The experience of growers all over 
the country proves that seed Pota- 
toes produced in the North yield far 
higher returns than home-grown 
seed. We therefore offer Maine- 
grown seed Potatoes which you will 
find of the same high quality as 
other Wetsel seed. 
Chippewa. An origination of the U. S. 
Department of Agriculture which has 
consistently yielded higher than Irish 
Cobbler and Green Mountain in official 
tests from Maine to Florida. A smooth, 
light-skinned variety with shallow eyes, 
maturing about a week later than Irish 
Cobbler. 
Green Mountain. A heavy producer on 
almost any soil, but does especially well 
in the northern sections where there is 
plentiful rainfall. Smooth, oval, white- 
skinned tubers, uniformly large in size. 
Irish Cobbler. The standard early white 
Potato on all markets, and continues 
to lead all others in demand. White- 
skinned, smooth, round, thick tubers, 
ready about 10 days earlier than Harly 
Rose. Vigorous vines, not so much 
affected by blight or drought as most 
varieties. 
Katahdin. Another new variety de- 
veloped in Maine by the U. 8. Depart- 
ment of Agriculture. A smooth, oval, 
white variety with shallow eyes, making 
a fine appearance. A heavy producer 
doing best on light soil; should not be 
planted on heavy soil subject to drought. 
Red Bliss or Bliss Triumph. A heavy 
yielder of mature Potatoes for table 
use at the earliest possible date. Some- 
times called the ‘Six-weeks Potato.” 
Spaulding Rose. A medium-early sort 
for growing in sandy loam. Skin pale 
pink; flesh pure white, of good quality. 
Good yielder. 
No. 2 Potatoes from Certified Seed. We 
can supply Maine-grown No. 2 Potatoes 
from Certified Seed at a somewhat 
lower price than the Certified or Select 
stock. Although the tubers are smaller, 
they will cut to better advantage and 
are more economical for planting. 
Highly recommended for planting in 
June and July. Our Potatoes are kept 
in cold storage and are just as firm and 
solid in July as in March.

tatoes and increases the yield.
