Reviewing these figures as a whole,we observe that the proportion of 
small potatoes is less from the single eyes. It also appears that the 
rotten potatoes are less, but this is perhaps accidental, as this year the 
rot was very local in its character, varying in abundance most markedly 
even in adjoining rows.
