TREATING REQUIRED 
Our seed sets come from the finest 
basic seed stock in America. Each set 
has just the right amount of meat with 
the eye to insure best germination. 
The sets are treated to eliminate sur- 
face fungus, to protect them against 
soil-borne organisms, and to enable 
you to plant when ground is still cold. 
They are easier to plant, germinate 
quicker, produce more and better pota- 
toes. Therefore, they cost you less in 
the long run.
