Stems low, green and spreading. The tubers are very attractive and it will 

 be grown again next year. 



Suffolk Beauty. — One of the Rose class. Medium in size, of irregular, 

 oblong shape with numerous deep pink eyes; skin pink, finely netted and 

 filled with small, light dots; flesh pure white with slight traces of pink 

 veins running through it. Season medium; fairly productive. Vines of 

 medium height, spreading. 



Trumbull. — A medium early sort that is of fine quality though hardly 

 up to the standard in productiveness. The tubers are of medium size, ob- 

 long, flattened, with shallow, open eyes; skin clear white, a little netted, 

 and the surface speckled with numerous small white dots. The texture and 

 flavor are of high quality. Vines of medium height, spreading, green. 



Uncle Sam. — One of the white varieties introduced in 1896. It is of ex- 

 cellent quality and of handsome appearance; although not satisfactory in 

 productiveness last year, it has made a good showing the pres ,nt season. 

 Vines strong, vigorous, spreading. 



Woodhull. — One of the varieties that was planted at different dates 

 proved itself to be a very valuable medium early sort. Tubers white, of 

 fine shape, excellent quality and quite productive. Rather tall, green, 

 spreading stems. 



White Peach Blow. — A seedling of the Excelsior, closely resembling 

 the old Peach Blow, but being earlier in ripening, it is even more desir- 

 able. The skin and flesh are of floury whiteness; eyes strong, broad, of 

 medium depth. It is a very strong, upright, rank grower with large pink 

 blossoms and may take the place once held by Peach Blow.
