Tubers of the White Yampee. a Variety of Yam Grown in the Canal 

 Zone. (Dioscorea trifida L. f., S. P. I. No. 42053.) 



This yampee is of fine qualil v and will furnish the South with another food equal to the best 

 potatoes if il can be grown there successfully. When baked or when peeled and boiled il 

 resembles a mealy potato and approximates it in food value, though slightly lower in protein.
