POTATOES 
Potatoes have been a fairly sure crop at the station. Although 
yields have varied considerably from year to year, there has not 
been a complete failure since the work was started in 1913. 
Three lines of experimentation with potatoes have been followed: 
Varietal tests, spacing experiments, and selection.
