PORTLAND, OREGON 15 
* SELECTED RURALS—Everyone is fa¬ 
miliar with the remarkable improvements 
made in potato growing through hill selec¬ 
tion, and in this we have secured a strain 
that has had fourteen years steady hill se¬ 
lection. 
This selection has developed the following 
traits: heavy production, uniformity of size, 
strong vitality, smooth round shape, and 
grand cooking qualities.^ This is the same 
variety as is grown so 'much in Idaho but 
is a great improvement over any other type 
of Rural New York. Our stock is limited. 
♦EARLIEST OF ALL— Undoubtedly as 
early as any potato grown and we consider it 
the most desirable early market or home 
garden potato. 
It is superior to the Irish Cobbler which 
it somewhat resembles, being a better yield- 
er and of stronger vitality. It has excep¬ 
tional endurance and is the best all round 
early potato we know of. 
♦WHITE ROSE — This new potato is a 
very heavy yielder of round, oblong, white 
potatoes that are in great demand. 
It has great endurance and is meeting with 
general favor throughout the Northwest. The 
name is misleading as it has none of the 
Early Rose characteristics and is not an 
early potato, but nevertheless its heavy yield¬ 
ing qualities, great vitality, good keeping 
qualities and smooth shape are bound to 
make it popular. 
♦Pride of Multnomah — -Somewhat similar 
to the Burbank, but has greater endurance 
against drought and will yield much heavier. 
♦Netted Gem— Called by some the Russet 
Burbank. Long shaped tubers, covered with 
a fine netting. They are of splendid texture 
and noted for their baking qualities. 
Irish Cobbler— First early white potatoes 
that are becoming very popular in the 
West as well as the East. 
♦Early Rose —The old favorite, true seed. 
♦Burbank —The standard sort. 
♦American Wonder— Favorite second early 
sort.
