HENDERSON'S BOVEE POTATO
THE POPULAR EXTRA EARLY
Delicious New Potatoes Can Be Produced Earlier
With BOVEE Than Any Other
It is not only early, but produces its crop in great abundance, and
yields a very large percentage of perfectly formed tubers. The cul-
tivator can be used to better advantage on a crop of Bovee than any
other sort, owing to the short and compact growth of the vines, and
its habit of setting the entire crop close in the hill.
Bovee, perhaps more than any other sort, delights in a rich soil,
and adverse conditions will not produce the best results; but, given
the proper soil conditions, frequent and thorough cultivation and
fairly good climatic conditions, it will yield an abundance of medium
sized Potatoes of perfect shape and remarkably good quality. .See cut
on opposite page.) Price, 80c. peck, $2.75 bushel, $5.50 barrel of 165
pounds net weight. By express or freight, at purchaser's expense.
"The Bovee is the best early Potato I ever raised. It is not only early, but pro-
duces a large crop, and is a good winter keeper."
PETER F. O'REILLY, Long Branch, N. J.
"For every pound of Bovee Potato seed I purchased from you last year I raised
sixty-seven pounds of fine Potatoes." WM. BOUGHTON , Norlons, Ore.
Henderson's EARLY PURITAN Potato
A valuable early sort, which produces a heavy crop of roundish-
oval tubers of good average size. Both flesh and skin are white.
The plant is strong and resists disease well. The flesh is of fine
texture, and when cooked is dry, floury and full-flavored. Price,
75c. peck, $2.50 bushel, $5.00 barrel of 165 pounds net weight. By
express or freight at purchaser's expense.
"We have been eating Early Puritan Potatoes since July 1st. They are the
wonder of the neighborhood." Prof. J, H. CLARK, Franklin Falls, N. H.
IKISH COBBLER POTATO
A fine, early variety, producing large handsome tubers, uniform in
shape and size.
The flesh is white, and of excellent quality; the skin verylight brown,
with whitish netting. It is a heavy cropper. .See cut. ) Price, 75c.
peck, $2.50 bushel, $5.00 barrel of 165 pounds net weight. By
express or freight at purchaser's expense.
"On April 21st I planted J^ bushel of Irish Cobbler Potatoes and in spite of a
late season (we had frost here on June 9th) we had good Potatoes the last week in June.
The folks said they were too big for new Potatoes. They are certainly the finest
early Potato I have seen in my experience of 37 years in gardening."
S. RIKER, Gardener to Mr. F. H. Spaldings,
Ellensbrook Farm. Southbury, Conn.
Improved GREEN MOUNTAIN Potato
A reliable medium late Potato which is rapidly increasing in
popularity — in fact, in some sections it has superseded all other
main crop varieties. It seems to thrive in all soils and in all
localities, making heavy, healthy vines, and yielding big crops of
large, smooth, white skinned tubers of handsome flattish oval form.
It cooks white, dry and mealy, and has a desirable flavor exclusively
its own. It keeps well, and is not liable to scab or decay. .See cut.)
Price, 75c. peck, $2.50 bushel, $4.75 barrel of 165 pounds net weight.
By express or freight at purchaser's expense.
"We got over five bushels of fine Potatoes from one peck of your Green Mountain
Potato Seed last season." W. J. MICKLETHWAITE,
Yukon, West Fla.
"The Green Mountain Potatoes I bought from you two years ago, gave far belter
results than Potatoes purchased from local dealers."
THOMAS F. GARRISON, Fairton, N. J.
"You are so far away from Wyoming that it costs high to ship large quantities
of Potatoes from New York, but I can honestly say I never got as good seed
anywhere else." JOHN HORRIE, Hat Creek, Wyo.
SIK WALTEK RALEIGH POTATO
A FINE MAIN^CROP POTATO
AN EXCELLENT KEEPER
Sir Walter Raleigh is one of the best varieties for a main crop,
and is admirably adapted to general cultivation. The vines are of
average size, but so vigorous that they stand erect long enough to
allow necessary cultivation. It produces an extremely large crop of
round, slightly flattened tubers, smooth, white skinned, and very
attractive in appearance.
Its remarkably good quality is greatly improved when properly
stored in a cool, dry cellar. When cooked it breaks up thoroughly,
presenting a flaky, snowy appearance, at once appetizing and in-
dicative of its superior flavor. .See cut on opposite page.) Price,
75c. peck, $2.50 bushel, $5.00 barrel of 165 pounds net weight.
By express or freight at purchaser's expense.
"I have excellent results from my 'Sir Waller Raleigh.' Season was very bad
and Potatoes grew small all over the country except mine. They grew large and I
am selling as I dig them for $1.00 per bushel, while ordinary Potatoes are selling
for from 55c. to 70c. I used neither manure nor phosphate — simply planted on
sod — broken autumn previous." Rev. W. L. RILEY, D.D., Kane, Pa.
"The Sir Walter Raleigh Potatoes turned out well. We raised a good four and
a half bushels from a peck. It is a good eating Potato and there are not many small
ones in a hill." L. MAYER, Roxbury Sta., Conn.
