RUSSET SEBAGO 
Scab and Late Blight Resistant 
This variety is resistant to more potato diseases than any other 
variety. Developed by Professors Wayne Weber and Henry Darling and 
Dr. Gus Reimann at the Wisconsin College of Agriculture. It is essential- 
ly the Sebago in a Russet skin. Like Sebago it is resistant to late 
blight, is a heavy yielder, cooks up white, and the tubers are well shaped 
with shallow eyes. ‘he tougher Russet skins give this strain more re- 
sistance to scab than its parent, the smooth, thin skinned Sebago. If you 
have scab infested soil you should plant this variety or Ontario, Russet 
Sebago is not quite as scab resistant as Ontario, but in addition it is 
blight resistant. "

RUSSET BURBANK 
In Wisconsin, generally speaking, this variety does not yield heavy, 
but on some muck soils and in some areas it has done very well. On 
the market it is generally sold as Idaho Russet, and is one of the best 
potatoes for baking. The oblong potato has a well netted brown skin, 
and the eyes are shallow. Prices: Wisconsin certified stock by express or

LA SODA 
High Yielding Pink Midseason 
A potato developed in Louisiana which: is proving excellent under 
Wisconsin growing conditions. It is a cross between Triumph and 
Katahdin and we think it is much superior to Triumph which we dis- 
continued in favor of the La Soda. Plants grow upright with medium 
to small leaves and average vigor. The bright pinkish red skin tubers are 
semiround to slightly oblong and very smooth with shallow eyes. It is 
about mid-season in maturity, Yields well in Wisconsin, Prices: Wiscon-

Blight Resistant Sebagos, 
SEBAGO 
Late Blight Resistant 
A late blight resistant potato tolerant to Potato Hopperburn caused 
by the Potato Leaf Hopper and resistant to the Yellow Dwarf disease 
which often causes heavy losses in the sandy soil regions. 
ability is about the same as Cobbler. Cooks white. 
The tubers are very similar to Chippewa—white, thin skinned, shallow- 
eyed, and oval to oblong in shape. Vines are large, definitely upright 
in growth habits. Because of its fine quality and thin skin, it is quite 
susceptible to scab. Plants set heavy with tubers and therefore requires 
a fertile soil.

KATAHDIN 
Heavy Yielding Late Storage Potato 
Katahdin is one of the higher yielding late varieties, which is gen- 
erally adapted to Wisconsin growing conditions. It is a heavy yielder, 
resistant to mild mosaic, tolerant to heat and drought conditions, but 
extremely susceptible to scab, On secab-free soils it produces beautiful 
white tubers of high market quality. The potatoes are very similar in 
shape and appearance to Chippewa. The skin is velvety white, very 
oblong and somewhat flat in shape. On light soils the 
tubers have a tendency to come up through the soil and sunseald. The 
vines seem quite resistant to Hopperburn.
