the Productive Quantiesoe Each Class,
To most people potatoes; are divided
into two classes, poor and good but
with the experts who make a study of
their development the classes go far be-
yond such a simple division, while the
number of varieties is something over-
whelming to a novice in potato lore.
However the principal° classes known to
commerce are but four, although the
varieties included in each class are
numerous and constantly changing. For
new varieties are produced every year,
and when one is grown that has some
quality which makes it superior to pre-
ceding sorts it is sure to find a foothold
with potato growers, and so takes its
place as a market variety in the class to
which it belongs.
Occasionally a variety is produeed
that possesses such distinctive character-
istics as to set it qiiite apart from all
that have preceded it, creating an en-
tirely new fashion in potatoes and be-
coming the founder of another class.
Its name, as a variety, is arbitrarily de-
cided by the grower; but, once given, it
is usually also adopted as the name of
the new class. Each subsequent variety
derived from this founder of a line, and

type see cut No. 1, but bear in mind that
they are red in color. The third and
last subdivision of the Rose class may be
called the miscellaneous section since it
includes all other shapes and sizes of red
potatoes, embracing many of the Peach -
blow and Chili varieties, as "Dalteta
Seedlings," "Dakota Red," "Seneca Red
Jacket," "Ideal,"- '-Maggie Murphy"
(which is the latest of them all) and
"Stray Beauty," which may account the
choicest of the section and as good a po-
tato as has yet been produced. Its shape
is clearly indicated by cut No. 4 and it is
rose-colored.
Next comes the fourth class, the veri-
ties of which are not except in extreme
cases'put on the Market until spring—
the Peerless class. The prominent
varieties are "Royal Blush," red ;
"Rural New Yorker, No. 2, white; and
"Blue Victor," dark bluish purple in
color. The shape of all varieties in this
class is distinctive and is technically
described by potato experts as round or
oval. But this description is likely to
be misleading to people in general un-
less it is understood that they are round
or oval horizontally, not at all ap-
proaching a ball or true oval shape, and
that they are distinctly flattened on the
two broad sides. That is to say, they
are much broader and longer than they
are thick. It is safe to speak of them as
large fiat potatpes. Cut No. 5 Is a good
presentment of the broad flat side of a
potato of this class.
The use of all potatoes of this shape.
regardless of their color, should be
avoided when possible until late winter.
• NO. L BURBANK' CLASS.
resembling it more or less, is also given
a name to distinginsh it from all other
varieties, but all belong to the one class.
So it comes about that while growers
recognize both variety and class by
name dealers usually pay attention only
to classes, and to them all varieties of
the Burbank class are Burbanks, while
those belonging to the Hebron class are
Hebrons, and so on through the list.
These classes have a greater interest
for consumers than appears on the sur-
face. The varieties are of far less im-
portance. In fact many a housewife
still asks for Peachblow potatoes; be-
cause of a remembered liking for a red
potato bought years ago, and thinks she
_gets k, although there has probably not
been a Peachblow potato grown in the
United States for a long time. But she
is just as well.' -or even better off; since
she gets what looks to her like the old
variety., and is in reality an improved
descendant.
The four promineat commercial classes
are the Burbank, Hebron, and Rose for
early (that is to say, for fall and winter)
use, and the Peerless to be used in late
winter, in spring, and in early summer
'up to the time when new potatoes are
ripe enough to be wholesome.
Potatoes may be said to be composed
of water and starch, and it is well to
bear in mind that those of the varieties
classed as "early," marketed in the fall,
contain a much larger proportion of
starch than those of the late Peerless
class, usually held to supply the market
in spring. The Peerless contains a large
percentage of water when fresh, and
for that reason keeps well, while for the
same reason they make less desirable
food at that age and stage, and ahould

From that time on they are really bet-
ter than any others because the Water
which makes them keep so well (and
also makes them less desirable as food)
has by that time largely evaporated,
leaving them in good, eatable Coe-
dition, while the varieties that were de-
sirable earlier in the season have become
flabby and in a measure unwholesome
from being kept so long.
Another olass—which does not, how-

cial—is interesting and, from the point
of view of the consumer, ettremely de-

not be used in early winter if others can
be obtained. But when the potato crop
is short, as it is this year, the Peerless
class often is found in market in quanti-
ties early in the season, for they are
very productive. So consumers must
be alert or they will be paying a good,
round price for water neatly packed in
potato eking when it would- be cheaper
to draw it from the faucet, or even from
the well; and when, by a little care in
selection, something better worth the
money could be had at the Same price.
It is a matter well worth attention,
too, for as one must' eat twenty-seven
-pounds of the best potatoes to get as
inuch nutriment as is contained in one
ounce of cheese fancy- the dire conse .
quence of trying to build up one's tissues
on the watery sorts of which ite would
be necessaryto consume—but there, the
subject grows too bulky for comfort, and
a word suffices for the wise.
The ability to distinguish the various
classes being necessary, a sketch and de-
scription of each prominent type may be
helpful. The Burbank class includes all
white kidney -shaped potatoes, the lead-
ing varieties at this time being "Morn-
ing Star," "White Star," 'Dandy,"
"White Flower," "Dutton's Seedling,"
etc. For the typi of this class see cut

results shown were as follows : "Blue
Victor," of the Peerless class, showed
the largest yield of any variety tested,
giving under field culture, both hill
and field tests were made in each case,
1026+, bushels per acre; .fertilizer
used, 1000 pounds Mape's food per
acre. "Morning • Star," of the Bur-
. bank, class, yielded 400 bushels
per acre ; fertilizers, twenty loads of
compost and 100 pounds of Bradley's
complete food per acre. "Gen. Garfield"
of the Hebron class yielded 600 bushels
per acre fertilizer, same as last. "Mag-
gie Murphy" of the miscellaneous divi-
sion of the Rose class yielded 674
bushels per acre ; fertilizer, 300 pounds
of Lister's food per acre. Manitoba, red,
white, and blue, of the Cowhorn section
of the baking potato class, yielded 300
bushels to the acre ; fertilizer, 600
pounds of Bowker's food per acre.
• The conclusion.drawn from the result
of the various tests was that increasin
the seed diminishes the size and increase
the yield ; so it is plain that all varieties
of the Ohio division °of the Rose class
would be improved by planting thr e
eyes. It was also found that rank- gro%
ing varieties require more seed than
those of slender growth to produce the

The Rose class includes all red pota-

tant sections. The first, or Ohio division,
is made up of all red or rose-colored pota-
toes that nre short and cylindrical in
form, as "Early Electric," 'Eery Mar-

Weeks," etc. For type of this class see
cut No. 3 and note it carefully,- for by its
shape you must know it, and
to recognize it at sight is im-
portant, because, while potatoes
of this shape are excellect when of smali
or of -medium size, they are almost MP -
tam to be hollovv-bearted when grown
to a -large size. 'This fact is so well
understood by the intelligent potato
grower that he plants varieties of this
class on poor soil which is exactly
adapted to their peculiar characteristics,
