DANIELS’ DUCHESS OF NORFOLK. This grand Potato introduced by us in 1905, has fully sustained 
the high opinion we then had of it, having again proved itself a heavy cropper and a good disease resister. It is a 
second early, growing about two feet high, the foliage being quite distinct. The tubers, which are pebble shaped or round, with 
shallow eyes, are of good size, producing a nice even crop of marketable Potatoes with a minimum of small. The skin is slightly 
rough or netted, the flesh white, and of first-class table quality. Per 14 lb. 3s. ; 56 lb. 10s. 6d. ; cwt. 18s.
