A valuable feature with this Potato is that it runs very uniform in size, producing but few small Potatoes. The plants are of dwarf, compact habit in growth, strong and healthy, always entirely free from blight and disease of any kind, and will also withstand almost any amount of drought. When the tubers are matured the vines die down and never make a second growth like many other extra early varieties of Potato. It invariably produces a large crop of beautiful, smooth Potatoes, which are roundish in shape, beautiful white skin, very smooth and few eyes. The quality is superb, flesh being pure white and cooks very mealy, free from core or blackness of any kind, and is of extremely fine flavor.
