Green Mountain I'otato was planted April Till and the crop was harvested August 2Uli, 
the varietv therefore being a late intcnncdiaie. They were dug under the supervision ol E. 
Williams. ?‘ecretarv of the New .Jersey Ilorticultunil Society, and Chas. b. Jone.s, of Newark, N. 
•J.. who. with the editor of the Unral IVeic Yorker, weighetl and e.slimated the yield, which was 
at'lherateof l, 3 ai ..50 liusUel.-i per acre. * * * * There was an average of II S-.*! to the 
hill, and an average weight of.'^^-t pounds to tlic hill. Thev were planted two ej^cs to the 
hill, one foot apart, in rows three feel apait. ♦ * * * This is the largest yield of potatoes 
ever raised on these Kxperiment Groumls. E. 8 . CAKMjVN, Editor. 
Also from a letter received from the editor of the Rural Xew Yorkttr under date of Decem¬ 
ber 0th, we'iiiote: “ Of all ilie potatoes we have ever te.stcil, thi.s Green .Mountain yields the 
most. Jli.san xmmeiue ]ilrMltr." 
There probably !.■« no person in the country who is belter able to judge of new potatoes tban 
Mr.Cannan. and .such wonls as above corning from liim, must eaiTy great weight. From our own 
knowledge of them, w(t jinlge them to be the hrM potato in America, and to .secure them wc paid 
the enormous price of per barrel for Die slock, which we control entirely. They cannot 
be olfered bv any other jrarly this year, ami can only be secnnal of ns on tbe lollowing
