EXPERIMENT STATION BULLETINS. 429 



Blush. — A medium late variety with strong, rank growing vines. Size, 

 medium to large, round to oblong; eyes small and shallow, well dis- 

 tributed; sprout center stroDg and pink in color; skin pink, netted; flesh 

 white, dry, firm, fine texture. Stems dark green, spreading, medium 

 length. Productiveness above the average. This variety has the markings 

 of a fine potato and will be carefully watched in the future. 



Bristol Beauty. — A variety introduced from Wisconsin. Tubers rather 

 small, oblong, regularly flattened; eyes long, shallow with a well marked 

 sharp lip, pink in color; skin pinkish white, slightly russeted; flesh veined 

 through the center, firm, fine texture, dry. Season medium, somewhat 

 lacking in productiveness. Stems rather long, spreading. 



Burr No. L — This variety possesses characteristics, that in many local- 

 ities will make it a desirable sort. It is of good size, fine quality and pro- 

 ductive, as well as a good keeper. Stems rather short, spreading. 



Clarendon Beauty. — A new variety originated in Clarendon, Orleans 

 County, N. Y. Tubers medium size, oval, flattened; eyes long, broad, 

 open, shallow; color pinkish white with a strong sprout center; skin rose- 

 tinted, finely netted; flesh white, firm, fine grained and dry. Stem tall, 

 nearly erect. Season medium late; lacking in productiveness. Seems to be 

 worthy of further trial a3 it is quite attractive and possesses some su- 

 perior qualities. 



Columbus. — A variety with strong rank vines, not seriously affected by 

 dry weather. Tubers medium to large, ovate to oblong in shape; eyes 

 broad, near the surface, slightly pink-tinted; lip well marked; skin pink- 

 ish white, thin, coarsely netted; flesh cream white, firm, fine grained, dry. 

 Season late and quite productive. This variety is largely advertised and 

 will be given further trial. Rather tall, medium, spreading. 



Endurance. — A late variety that in many localities would not mature. 

 Tubers of medium size, round, oblong; eyes numerous, near the surface; 

 skin slightly rusty, cream white, thin; flesh very white, fine grained, firm, 

 but a little watery. Rather tall, upright. It is a well formed potato and 

 if sufficiently productive will be desirable as a late keeping variety. 



Good Times. —Closely resembles Champion of the World. The pota- 

 toes are medium to large in size; shape oval, slightly flattened; eyes broad, 

 very shallow, slightly lipped and of a delicate pink color; skin finely netted, 

 very thin and pinkish white; flesh firm, of good texture, white and dry. 

 Rather tall, upright, somewhat spreading. A medium late sort that ap- 

 pears to be quite productive. This promises to be a valuable, general pur- 

 pose potato, as it possesses many points of merit. 



Harrington Peer. — A variety that exceeded all others in productiveness. 

 Tubers medium to large, oblong, flattened; eyes numerous, broad and shal- 

 low, with a sharp but not prominent lip; skin light pink or rose color, 

 smooth and slightly netted; flesh white, fine grained, firm and dry. It 

 is said to be a seedling of Early Rose, and will take its place on the mar- 

 ket, being equal to it in appearance, quality, etc., and promises to be a 

 better yielder. Vines strong, quite tall and upright. 



Honeoye Rose. — A fairly productive medium early variety, which pos- 

 sesses points that will make it one of the leaders in the Rose class. The 

 potatoes are of good size, desirable in form and high quality. Stems of 

 medium height, upright, green. 



Irish Mignon. — Tubers small to medium, round; eyes slightly sunken, 

 narrow and small, pink tinted; skin cream color, thickly covered with rus- 

 set; flesh creamy white, firm and dry. Vines of medium height, slender,
