Potatoes fer Profit.

/ It is positive fact that crop of potatoes
will grow into moaey quicker than anything
else you can plant. It is also fact that none
] OF the ordinary field crops require so great
an outlay for the items Of labor and fertilizer
as potato crop. For this reason the man
who takes chances and plants home grown
seed, foregoing the well-known advantages
Of Northern grown seed, is trifing with the
business end ofa risky proposition.
The difference in cost Of home and North
ern grown seed is trlhlng as compared to the
difference in yield and vitality.
The recognized headquarters for seed pota-
toes, are John Kennel, l26 Dock street, and E.
s. Woodward & Co., 122 Dock street, Philadel-
phia. They are direct receivers Of potatoes
grown IN Aroosiook county, Maine, expressly
for seedstaking special precaution to avoid
stock showing any imperfection. They also
make a speciality OF Virginia second crop po-
totoes. The supply OF second crop this year
is limited, but excellent in quality.
Get tae idea Of home grown seed out OF your
head and write TO either OF the above firms
for circulars. They willsquote lowest p-ice
on superior seed.
