677 RUMANIAN WAX. (Hot.) Large Yellow Fruit. 70 days. Our 
strain of this variety fills the demand for a large-fruited early yellow

fruit are long, 41% to 5 in. and about 21% in. across at the shoulder, 
with a tapering or pointed shape. The color is an attractive lemon-

second early type, outstanding for enormous yields and immune to 
ordinary late blight. The tubers are attractive, smooth, elongated 
and of the very finest quality, perfect for baking. It is an excellent 
storage type and such a tremendous cropper that it should be planted 
close to keep the size down. Extremely vigorous and adapted from 
Maine to the Mid-West, Kennebec is ideal for both home and market.

has proved its worth with thousands of growers. Smooth, white and 
slightly elongated, excellent for late crop and storage. N. Y. Certified,
