It is hand- some form, white skin, and yields im- mense crops in all sections. It is fine grained, cooks dry and mealy, and of superior quality. This is the case when first dug, and they retain their good cook-, ing qualities and keep sound and perfect! until the new crop comes again, being] equal to the Green Mountain on Ion keeping qualities. Never since I firsi] offered it have I been able to grow enough! to supply my trade, as the demand in-| creases from year to year. It is one of the most robust growers 1 have ever found,' putting up mammoth stalks nearly one inch in diameter, covered with dark green leaves with an abundance of white blos- soms ; and one strong recommendation is that my customers write that the bugs do not trouble them as much as other varie- ties. I have a fine lot this season, and no one need hesitate in planting them for a market potato, or family use. Per pound, 25 cents; 3 pounds, 60 cent, post, paid.
