The importance of excluding light from Pota- toes and keeping them as cool as possible cannot be overestimated as a means of preserving the crop. Early Rose.—Every cultivator of "the Potato, both far and near, is familiar with the Early Rose. It was the pioneer of almost all the improved varie- ties of the present day; its highly extolled character when first introduced has not depre- ciated in the least ; in fact, cul- tivators cannot speak too highly of it; it pleases the market gar- dener as well as the private grower; and in reputation to- day it equals that of any other variety. To keep it in perfec- tion it is always necessary to obtain your seed from potatoes grown in an Eastern climate, and those from Maine are always the best; to keep planting from your own seed greatly dete- riorates the quality, decreases its product- iveness, and reduces their size. We can supply the Early Rose grown in Vermont. Elaine, or Prince Edward's Island as de- sired.
