SEED POTATOES 
CULTURE—Plant about four inches deep in rows 28 to 
34 inches apart, and drop the potatoes 12 to 15 inches 
apart in the row. The soil should be well manured or 
well fertilized. A ridge should be thrown over the 
potatoes after planting and then level down just be- 
fore the potatoes come through, and cultivate well 
until in bloom, and then ridge up again and leave alone 
until harvested. Use JOHN DEERE POTATO PLANT- 
ERS AND DIGGERS. 


IRISH COBBLER—We believe we are safe in saying that 
75 per cent of all the extra early pottoes planted today 
are Cobbler. Its popularity is based principally on its 
extreme earliness, but is also based on its reputation 
as a reliable and uniform yielder. One of its strong 
characteristics is that it makes few if any very small 
potatoes, practically all being medium to large size, 
and you rarely see a knotty Cobbler, for they are 
generally plump, handsome potatoes with smooth skin. 
The tubers are round to oval in shape; slightly flat- 
tened, have strong, well-developed eyes; the flesh is 
pure white and cooks dry and mealy. A first-class 
potato in every respect, thoroughly dependable and 
well worth a place in every garden.

with Improved SEMESAN BEL breeding has done for horses, cattle, hogs, etc. During 
the growing season the fields must be inspected at 
rgular intervals to detect diseases. If the percentage 
exceeds the limit prescribed by law, the field is con- 
demned. The small additional cost of certified seed 
over poor seed is not worth considering. There is less 
disease, more No. 1 potatoes and greater profit to the 
grower. Every bag will carry the tag of the inspection 
authorities; this is an assurance that every safeguard 
has been applied to have them as pure as is humanly 
possible. Prices quoted on request,
