will sow an acre. 
Sow in the early spring, as soon as weather 
permits, in rows 12 to 15 inches apart, half 
inch deep. If the onions grow too thick, thin 
to 1 inch apart, or only a very few onions will 
be the result.

tilizer at the rate of 400 lbs. per acre.

low Prizetaker is far the handsomest,

grained, and mild in flavor.

POTATOES 
NORTHERN GROWN 
On account of market fluctuations, we are 
unable to name exact prices. We will be pleased 
to have you write during the month of January 
or later and we will then quote prices for prompt 
or future shipment. 
Clean seed is of vital importance in the pro- 
duction of potatoes. Planting scabby or dis- 
eased potatoes in your garden will not only 
produce an inferior crop but will infect the 
soil with disease spores, and render it unfit for 
potato production in the future. Cut the seed 
potatoes in four or more sections, each piece 
with an eye. Dust with sulphur, and plant one 
section in a place and about ten inches apart 
in the row. Level the land, open a furrow 
about five inches deep, plant, cover, leaving 
the surface level. As the potatoes grow, draw 
the soil to them and thus provide an irriga- 
tion furrow between the rows. 
Our Certified Seed Potatoes were grown in 
the Red River Valley of Minnesota and North 
Dakota and are strictly fancy stock. Should 
not be compared to average stock as offered by 
grocers and commission houses. 
WARBA—A new variety. Round, 
red. Early and a very heavy yield- 
er. Resistant to mosaic and hot, dry 
weather. 
TRIUMPH—Very early. Tubers are 
of medium size, round and uniform 
in shape, with but few small ones; 
eyes slightly depressed; color a beau- 
tiful light red. Its beauty, productive- 
ness and fine quality make it one of 
the best extra early market varieties, 
especially for the South. 
EARLY OHIO—Our stock of this 
variety is grown in the Red River Val- 
ley of the North. 
IRISH COBBLER—A variety which 
in recent years has attained popular- 
ity. In many soils is as early or with- 
in a few days as early as Early Ohio, 
and the yield is superior. Added to 
this last the potato is chunky, white in 
color and of large medium size, mak- 
ing it the most attractive variety by 
far on the early market.
