WHITE STAR, 
For this new and pertejtiy distinct variety, we are indebted to E. S. Brownell/, of Vermont, now so long and favc 
hly known as a successful potato hybridizer. 1 he originator reports having selected it in i?75, from a collection 
s>eedlings raised from seed-balls of the Excelsior, fertilized with polen from the White Penchblow. The foliage is dei 
vorat 
ection of 
polen from the White Penchblow. I he foliage is dense,, 
dark green, vines strong and vigorous, on which account it is well calculated to resist the ravages of the Colorado beetle. 
The tubers are oblong, large, uniform and handsome ; while in yield it has proved remarkably prolific, and so far has 
•effectually resisted blight. It is medium early, and not the least imp rtar.t feature of this new potato is its excellent keep¬ 
ing qualities, in this respect it excells many other sorts I know of. Whether baked or boiled its cooking qualities are 
faultless; its purity of color, fine floury texture and delicious flavor being unexcelled by any other variety. It is with 
great pleasure I offer this variety, knowing, as I do that it will gWe the best of sittsfaction.
