It is of the shapeliest form and even in droughty seasons its ])erfcet shape is retained. Without any approach to an exception, it is the g^reatest 
yieltler ever introduced! It may fairly be chiimed that it does not yield any small tubers at all in ordinary seasons. It bears its tubers very close to 
the plant, a single turn of the fork turning out every potato. It is of the largest size, the tubers usually averaging in weight a pound each; but on 
account of the very dry weather of the past season, our present stock runs much smaller than it otherwise woidd. It is a perfect keeper. Both skin 
find flesh are of extreme whiteness. 
The foliage is heavy and of a dark green color, and the vines are always strong and vigorous. The tubers set while the vines are quite small, 
but do not ripen until late. This gives all the advantages of continuous growth lor the entire season, making it very valuable for the main field crop. 
Our claims for the Carman No. 3 are: 
1st. It is the handsomest large potato ever produced. 
2d. It will out-yield any other potato whatever. 
3d. Practically, every potato is of marketable size. 
4th. Its table qualities are fulW up to the highest standard, it has no hollow hearts, and no dark spots. 
We are confident that it will soon be the most popular variety for field cxdturc, on account of its enormous productiveness and great beauty."
