EXTRA EARLY COBBLER, IRISH COBBLER. One of 
the most reliable, first early Potatoes ever sent out. 
It ripens almost-with the Harly Ohio and is so uniform 
that every hill seems to ripen at one time. The yield 
is very large for an early variety, equal to some of the 
jate ones. Form oval and round, skin slightly netted, 
ereamy white, having eyes which are quite shallow, 
_ some even with the surface. Flesh pure white and of 
finest quality and its very handsome appearance has 
brought it right to the front as a profitable variety 
for market or for home use. 
ee PBLISS TRIUMPH. A fine early, round red Potato. Uniform 
VES size, shape and a good heavy yielder. Most widely 
planted variety. Unusually high quality, a very fine 
keeper. Plant this Potato as the mainstay in the home 
garden. You can’t miss here, as this variety will pay 
off for everything put into it. One of the best for 
digging early and boiling with the jackets on. 
RURAL NEW YORKER. This well Known Potato holds 
its own for the greatest yielding Potato of all. We 
grew a large field of these this year, carefully doctored 
ie and of certified seed, and we have a wonderful lot of 
: seed to offer this season to our customers. It is, of 
course, a late main crop sort maturing well in all 
ae sections, and we think if you are interested in getting 
a good start you had better order some of these at 
this time. Sacked free. 
RURAL RUSSETT. A large sized, main crop, heavy yield- 
3 ing late Potato. It doesn’t need much description as 
it is well known. 
ae SOY BEANS 
LINCOLN. The U. S. Department of Agriculture in tests from 
= 61 points in Ohio, Indiana, Illinois, Iowa, Missouri and Ne- 
- praska, from 1938 to 1942 showed the following: Yield per 
acre: Lincoln 33.7—Illini 27.9—Dunfield 27.2. The maturity 
was 1% days earlier for the Lincoln alee for the Illini or 
: Dunfield. The degree of lodging was better for Lincoln than 
z= : either of the other two and the seed quality was better. 
: The Lincoln bean contains 21.7% oil compared to 20.5% for 
Illini and 21.3% for Dunfield. On tests in Ohio conducted by 
the Ohio State University covering 28 different tests, the 
Lincoln bean yielded about 5 to 6 bushelS more per acre 
than any other yellow bean. 
Te NEW RICHLAND SOY BEANS. Profitable early variety. A 
=p new strain from the Purdue Experiment Station. Matures 
from 10 days to 2 weeks earlier than Illini. This makes it 
= especially suited to Central Corn Belts where large Soy 
Te Bean acreages are raised annually, as it permits the harvest- 
f ing of this variety before Illini comes into maturity. For 
a Northern Illinois, Southern Wisconsin, Minnesota and simi- 
g - lar localities it is highly recommended on account of its 
early maturity. Its outstanding features are early maturity, 
high ENE excellent lodging resistance and high oil content.
