CARTERS’ SNOWBALL. — This fine eating Potatoe is considered to be the greatest advance in table potatoes for many years. 
It was raised by a Customer of ours, and under the name of Coekerill’s Seedling received the highest honours at the Royal Horticultural 
Society’s trials, when 67 sorts were tested. We gave it the name of “Snowball,” a description that seems to well bear 0 s 
qualifications. The following is the Raiser’s descriptionA cross between ‘Schoolmaster’ and ‘The Canon, almost round in shape, 
rough skin, white flesh, mid-season variety with a medium haulm, free from disease, and a very heavy cropper on all soils.
