This variety does best on wa{‘mh;andy O'::lasr andx is not suited to Northern io. It possesses a high degree of resistance to Mild Mosaic and some tolerance to Scab, but is quite susceptible to Fusâ€" arium Wilt and Yellow Dwarf. It is late in maturing, bein%I about twentyâ€"two days later than the Cobbler. In most seasons it is lm-‘ mature at digging time, with the result that it is apt to peel or feather considerably when being harvested. It is a good keefer but its table quality is only fair, as, Ontario, even though its table quzlloff is good. When cooked it has a g apxeuance with good mealiâ€" ness and flavour. This variety gives best results in the cool northern sections, but is not so suitable to the southern part of the Province. The Green Mountain is dktlnctdl{ oblorlllg and flattened, with the en usually blunted. The skin is a dull creamy white, and more or less netted. The surface is inclined to be irregular with rather shallow eyes. This variety is better adapted to heavier soils than is the Dooley and Produees larger yields of good quality tubers.

It is quite susce _;gtliiié"d{ _disease and because of this is gradually losing favour in while its table quality, in appearâ€" ance and flavour, is superior. It also has a high degree of resistance to Mild Mosaic and is rapidly inâ€" creasing in acreage and popularity in Ontario. it has proven to be a potato of outâ€" standing merit. Under average conâ€" ditions it ripens about seven days earlier than the Green Mountain and twelve days earlier than the Dooley. Its yield of total crop and percentage of marketable pofatoes are similar to that of the Dooley, ated by the United States D« ment of Agriculture. It has grown at the Ontario Agricultural College since 1929, and, in addition, its performance has been studied on many good potato farms for the KATAHDIN The Katalidin is a white, ovalâ€" shaped, shallowâ€"eyed potato, originâ€" ated by the United States Departâ€" The Chippewa is a white, oblong, shallowâ€"eyed potato. It is a comâ€" paratively new variety developed by the United States Department of Agriculture. It was introduced into Ontario and has won a &l:ee for itself among a number of better varieties. Its tubers resemble those of the Katahdin, but it ripens about a week or ten days earlier than this variety and three weeks earlier than the Dooley.
