Rev. 1-ewis '!). Wlblc, Alternate, Airs. Walter Fry, Pure, Maine Grown, Fancy SEED POTATOES They Grow Better—They Yield Better My Seed Potatoes are grown especially for me in the State of Maine by one of the most widely-known Seed Potato specialists in the country. Every year we receive many carloads of this high yielding stock direct from his Seed Potato Farms in sealed cars. Not a hand touches them until they reach us. By actual test made by many potato growers in every section of Pennsylvania, these high-yielding Seed Potatoes have produced from two to three times as many bushels to the acre or baskets to the row as , home-grown stock will produce under the se.me conditions. WE PAY MORE FOR THEM than ordinary planting potatoes , would cost—they are worth more—and it will PAY YOU WEIJL, as It does hundreds of others In bigger crops, to plant Shell's High Yielding Seed Potatoes Mr. George Smith, Harrisburg R. D. 4, market gardener,,says: "Never again will I plant my own potatoes. I planted what'l got from you alongside of my own of the same variety and gave them the same attention, yet the plants of yours were much stronger and healthier, and produced THREE times as many potatoes." Denison Bros., Dauphin, said: "We honestly believed that our own potatoes, very carefully selected, would yield as many bushels to the acre as your Maine seed potatoes, and two years ago we planted them side by side to prove them—we must acknowledge yours produced two bushels to eveby one bushel our own produced. Now we plant all yours." George Davis, market gardener, says: "I am convinced by actual test that It pavs to pay the price and plant your MAINE GROWN SEED POTATOES. Planted side by side, in the same field on the same day, cultivated and sprayed in the same way, yours produced nine baskets to the row and mine only three." Don't save at the wrong end. when to do so means a loss—- Plant BchcU's Rigger Crop Maine Grown Seed Potatoes and double your crop.
