CERTIFIED IRISH COBBLERS—It is false economy to 
save fifty cents or a dollar a bag by buying poor 
common potatoes when certified seed can be had—the 
most successful potato growers use nothing but certi- 
fied seed. Certification has done for potatoes what 
breeding has done for horses, cattle, hogs, etc. During 
the growing season the fields must be inspected at 
regular 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

possible. Prices quoted on request.
