EXTRA EARLY COBBLER (IRISH 
COBBLER). One of the most reliable, 
first early Potatoes ever introduced. 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 late 
ones. Form oval and round, skin slightly 
netted, creamy white with quite shallow 
eyes. Flesh pure white and of finest 
quality. Its very handsome appearance has 
brought it to the front as a profitable va- 
riety for market or home use. 
BLISS TRIUMPH. A fine early, round red 
Potato. Uniform in size and shape and a 
good heavy yielder. Unusually high 
quality and a very fine keeper. Plant this 
Potato as the mainstay in the home gar- 
den. One of the best for digging early and 
boiling with the jackets on. 
RURAL NEW YORKER. This well-known 
Potato holds its own as the greatest 
yielder of all. We grew a large field this 
year from certified seed, and we have a 
wonderful lot of seed to offer this season 
to our customers. It is a late main-crop 
eh maturing well in all sections. Sacked 
ree. 
RURAL RUSSET. A _ large-sized, main- 
crop, heavy-yielding late Potato. Has been 
popular for years. 
DWARF ESSEX RAPE 
This is a great crop for hogs and sheep. 
In from eight to ten weeks from sowing, it 
is ready for them to graze, producing 20 to 
30 tons of green feed per acre. Covers the 
ground and chokes out the weeds. Sow latter 
part of June, 6 pounds to the acre. , 
SAND VETCH 
We could not supply our demands for this 
seed last year. Does well on sandy or worn- 
out land, though better soil produces better 
crops. 
SOY BEANS 
LINCOLN. The U. S. Department of 
Agriculture in tests from 61 points in Ohio, 
Indiana, Illinois, Iowa, Missouri and Ne- 
braska, from 1938 to 1942 showed the 
following: Yield per acre: Lincoln 33.7— 
Illini 27.9—Dunfield. 27.2. The ma- 
turity was 11% days earlier for the Lincoln 
than for the Illini or Dunfield. The degree 
of lodging was better for Lincoln than 
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. 
NEW RICHLAND. Profitable early va- 
riety. A new strain from the Purdue Ex- 
periment Station. Matures from ten days 
to two weeks earlier than Illini. This 
makes ‘it especially suited to central corn 
belts where large Soy Bean acreages are 
raised annually. For Northern Illinois, 
Southern Wisconsin, Minnesota and simi- 
lar localities it is highly recommended on 
account of its early maturity. Its out- 
standing features are early maturity, high 
yield, excellent lodging resistance and 
high oil content.
