Chippewa. An origination of the U. S.

consistently yielded higher than Irish 
Cobbler and Green Mountain in official 
tests from Maine to Florida. A smooth, 
light-skinned variety with shallow eyes, 
maturing a week after Irish Cobbler. 
Green Mountain. A heavy producer on 
almost any soil, but does especially well 
in the northern sections where there is 
plentiful rainfall. Smooth, oval, white- 
skinned tubers, uniformly large in size. 
Irish Cobbler. The standard early white 
Potato on all markets, and continues 
to lead all others in demand. White- 
skinned, smooth, round, thick tubers, 
ready about 10 days earlier than Early 
Rose. Vigorous vines, not so much 
affected by blight or drought as most. 
Katahdin. Another new variety de- 
veloped in Maine by the U. 8. Depart- 
ment of Agriculture. A smooth, oval, 
white variety with shallow eyes, making 
a fine appearance. A heavy producer 
doing best on light soil; should not be 
planted on heavy soil subject to drought.
