NORTHERN GROWN POTATOES — Continued 
EARLY BOVEE. — Notwithstanding this Pota- 
to was introduced only a few years ago, it has 
become very popular, and our supply has never 
been eciual to the demand. It is of the Hebron 
type and one of the earliest varieties grown, me 
tubers are oblong, have pink skin of handsome 
appearance and of tine quality. It is a heavy 
producer; has a stocky, dwarf vine, the tubers 
growing compactly in the hill. 
FETOSKY. — One of the 
newer varieties and becom- 
ing quite popular. It is 
large, round and white, and 
seems adapted to a large 
range of soils. Petosky is 
very early, a vigorous grow- 
er and good yielder. 
WHITE STAR. — Long, 
white in color, good keeper, 
good size and quality, me- 
dium late. 
FEEREESS. — A standard 
round white potato, medium 
late in maturing. 
EMPIRE STATE. — A good 
standard late Potato and 
one extensively used for 
late planting; good yielder 
and cooker; in color, white, 
somewhat like the Burbank, 
but larger. 
CHICAGO M A R K E T.— 
This Potato is said to be a 
seedling of the Rose. It is 
later, makes a heavier yield 
and is a splendid Potato for 
cooking and for keeping. 
The Potatoes are many to 
the hill and are large. In 
shape rather oblong and Hat. Color varies on dif- 
ferent soils, from light pink nearly white, to rose 
color. In Central Kentucky this is one of the 
most popular main crop varieties. 
BEAUTY OF HEBRON An old-time variety, 
still very largely grown. It is oblong in shape, 
with white skin, slightly shaded with pink; a 
good keeper and of fine quality. 
rural NEW YORKER No. 2. — Well known 
now the country over, and very largely planted 
for profitable main crop. Rurals are now quoted 
in all the leading markets of the country along 
with Burbanks and other standard sorts, and 
usually they are quoted higher than Burbanks. 
They are certainly more profitable to raise. When 
Rural No. 2 first made its appearance as sent out 
in 1889 by the Rural New Yorker, it introduced 
an entirely distinct class of potatoes, unknown 
up to that time. The class is characterized by 
long, rather spindling vines, with dark colored 
stalks, dark green leaves and purple blossoms; 
tubers nearly round, flattened, with very smooth, 
EARLY NEW QUEEN. — A very popular early 
variety, closely resembling its parent, the Beauty 
of Hebron; in fact, it would require an expert 
to determine one from the other. Under high cul- 
tivation, there are very few small ones; in qual- 
ity it is most excellent, the flesh being pure white, 
and of sparkling, mealy texture and fine flavor 
so much desired in a table potato. 
Early Rose. 
pure white skin, uniform in size, quite numerous 
in the hill, always very attractive in appearance. 
BURBANK. — A standard Long White variety. 
An old standard main crop variety which is very 
popular because of market demand and heavy 
yields. Satisfies both the grower and the con- 
sumer. Tubers are large, oblong and have fairly 
deep eyes. Color white, quality excellent, cook- 
ing very mealy and of attractive whiteness that 
pleases. It is the standard market potato in 
most of the potato growing districts and con- 
tends with Rural New Yorker for lirst place. 
CARMAN No. 3. — This great Potato should be 
found in every list of the best varieties. It is a 
sort of an iron-clad, and holds its own and does 
well everywhere. It makes great yields of fine, 
large, smooth tubers (like the illustration), even 
under the most unfavorable circumstances, and 
can be relied on to bring in money. It grows a 
very strong, upright top, with dark-colored stalks 
and' purple blossoms, and is little affected by 
drouth, blight or bugs.
