J. STECKLER SEED CO., LTD., ALMANAC AND 



Extra Karly Vermont. Very similar 

 to the Early Rose, but of a stronger growth; 

 a little earlier, and the tubers aie more 

 uniform and larger. It is an excellent table 

 variety. 



Beauty of Hebron. We have tried this 

 variety thoroughly and found it in every 

 particular as has been represented. It is 

 earlier than the Early Rose, which resem- 

 bles it very much, being a little lighter and 

 more russeted in color. It is productive and 

 of excellent table quality; more mealy than 

 the Early Rose. 



White Elephant. This variety has 

 again given entire satisfaction. The tubers 

 are large and of excellent quality; planted 

 alongside the Peerless, it produced fully 

 one-third more than that variety. 



Rural New Yorker No. 2. Of recent 

 introduction. This potato is the nearest to 

 perfection of any yet introduced, and ex- 

 ceeds all others i:i yield. It is of large size, 

 very smooth skin; few eyes, distinct and 

 shallow. Flesh very white cf excellent 

 table quality. 





Earl., Rose. 



Rural New Yorker No. 2. 



Barly Ohio. This Potato is not exactly 

 a novelty, as it has been in commerce for 

 about two years; but as it is comparatively 

 little known in the South, and has proven 

 to be one of the best of the early varieties, 

 we think it worthy of some special mention, 

 and therefore add it to our list. 



The originator claims that it is a hardier 

 and more productive potato than the Tri- 

 umph, and from what we have seen we are 

 fully convinced that the claims are not ex- 

 aggerated. The potato in appearance bears 

 some resemblance to the Early Triumph, 

 except perhaps ill color, which is a little
