The New Snow 
The Newest Money Maker 
This new main crop potato originated 
in Maine, and after repeated trials in vari- 
ous sections of the country has proved itself 
to be of great value on account of its im- 
mense yield together with the fact that it AA NN \ 
invariably produces very few small potatoes jig | " AVIVA 
and is now attracting wide spread attention. {hy } oi 
In shape the Snow potato is roundish, i 
slightly flattened eyes on the surface; the 
skin is well netted, which is nature’s mark \ 
of good eating quality. Itis very fine jj 
grained and flaky. Grows a large, heavy (5 
top, dark green leaves, blossoms white. 
This wonderful potato ought to have been \ 
named the poor man’s friend, for it will do 
the best of any potato grown on poor soil, 
wherever little care is taken of it, and when 
‘given the best of care and fertilization, it 
will repay the planter most bountifully. 
The Snow Potato is just what the markets 
desire and will bring fancy prices.

Sir Walter Raleigh 
The Champion Late Sort 
A white-skin, main crop or late potato; the best 
of Mr. Carman’s introductions. It is a magnifi- 
cent new potato, much resembling Rural New 
Yorker No. 2, of which it is aseedling. It is decid- 
edly better than its parent, the tubers being quite 
uniform in size, with but few small ones among 
\ them. It is from four to six days later than the 
I) parentstock. The color is the same, the skin and 
) flesh being white. In fact, it can be justly claimed 
for Sir Walter Raleigh that it is the whitest 
fleshed and finest grained potato on the whole list 
of main-crop varieties, not even excepting the 
ki Snowflake; and it promises to supersede all. other 
| sorts of its class on account of its sterling excel- 
lence. On the trial grounds of the Rural New Yorker 
it proved the best and heaviest cropper of 49 va- 
rieties. It does wonderfully well on my trial 
grounds at Briar Crest and Panmure. In field cul- 
ture it has gone above 450 bushels to the acre. Its 
record in all respects entitles it to rank with the 
very best late potatoes now grown upon Ameri- 
can soil, and no progressive cultivator should fail 
to give it a trial.

It is a most excellent extra early variety, 
maturing good size tubers seven weeks from 
time of planting. It has also the remarkable 
characteristic of producing very few, if any, 
small potatoes, all the tubers being of mar- 
ketable size. The vines make short, upright 
growth, so that the hills may be only a short 
distance apart. The flesh is pure white, with i 
a clean, smooth, white skin; and in quality | 
they are excellent, always cooking dry and | 
mealy. Splendid keepers, and a first-class sort 
worth the attention of all potato growers.
