RURAL BLUSH. 
This is the Rural New Yorker's. Great potato sent out last 
season in their free seed distribution. I have never grown 
them, hut if all I hear in their favor is true, they arc indeed 
a wonderful sort. They are described as follows by the editor 
of the Rural. “They were tried at the Rural Farm last sea¬ 
son for the first, beside fourteen other new kinds. It was the 
only variety that did not materially suffer from the drouth, and ^ 
W c a re f 
it yielded more than any two others put together. Wc arc 
now raising it in quantity beside the White Elephant and 
Beauty of Hebron, and it promises to outyield either. It 
seems to be remarkably adapted to a dry season. The tubers 
are of medium size, and singularly uniform —never growing 
very large and yielding very few small ones. The portrait 
shows the characteristic shape The vines bear small leaves 
and the stems are notable for their branching habit and slen¬ 
derness. They seldom bloom profusely, and in field culture 
occupy less space than most other kinds. The potato is of 
the very first quality. The skin is white except at the seed 
end, where it assumes a rosy color, from which the name 
of Blush was suggested to the originator.
