DANIELS’ MASTERPIECE. A new seedling 
Potato of great merit; second early, white round, 
rather inclined to oblong. The eyes are few, and 
quite even with the surface; skin white and 
slightly netted, flesh fine-grained, and beautifully 
white and floury when cooked. Its dwarf habit, 
(from nine inches to one foot in height,) renders 
it invaluable for all gardens, whilst its heavy 
cropping qualities will recommend it to the market 
grower. Price, 7 lb. Is. 9d., 14 lb. 3s. 
DANIELS EARLIEST WHITE. This new seedling Potato is one of the earliest ever sent out, 
coming in a fortnight before the Ashleaf varieties. The tubers, which are kidney-shaped, are of

requiring an early Potato, either for forcing or for the open ground.

ably Prolific, and of excellent table quality, resists the disease well. Its fine appearance makes it a 
most desirable exhibition variety. Price, 7 lb. Is. 9d., 14 lb. 3s., 56 lb. 10s. 6d. 
SNOWDROP. Although this variety has now been for some years before the public, it possesses such 
merit as to class it amongst the select varieties of to-day. The tubers are well formed, eyes shallow 
skin clear, and flesh beautifully white and mealy when cooked; an abundant cropper, and very 
distinct. It received a First Class Certificate from the Royal Horticultural Society. 
Price, 14 lb. 2s. 6d., 56 lb. 8s. 6d., cwt. 15s. 
DANIELS’ SPECIAL. This new 
seedling has been selected for 
extraordinary cropping, combined 
with its superb cooking qualities. 
It is a handsome White Round 
mainerop variety, with eyes even 
with the surface, consequently 
there will be no waste in the 
peeling, and, when cooked, like 
balls of flour. Wb have grown 
this sort at the rate of twelve 
tons per acre on medium soil, 
thus proving its great productive- 
ness. As an exhibition variety it 
is one of the handsomest of the 
White Rounds. 
14 lb. 3/-, 56 lb. 10 6, cwt. 18/6

“From the 14 lbs. of your Daniels’ Special 
Potatoes I lifted 530 lbs. of splendid Potatoes, 
no waste in peeling, when cooked, like ball- of flour. 
I shall reco mmend them to all my neighbours.**— 
Mr. J. W. HARRISON, Gardener to the Bight
