FIRST EARLY VARIETIES (White). 
EARLY PURITAN. Awarded First Class Certificate, Royal Horticultural Society. An early variety 
of great excellence. A good cropper, and of first-class table quality. The tubers can be used when 
half grown, as even then they are wonderfully dry and of fine flavour. Its dwarf habit of growth, 
about fifteen inches high, renders it very suitable for all gardens, and on account of its fine crop- 
ping qualities it is rapidly becoming one of the chief market varieties.
