NEW POTATOES Varieties Tested by Rural Home Editor
The Rural Home editor tests several potato varieties by boiling and tasting with salt. White Elephant, Rochester Favorite, Vick's Prize, Mammoth Pearl, Chicago Market, and Burbank's Seedling show good quality and cooking color, while Old Peachblow tops many in flavor. Early Ohio, Clark's No 1, White Star, Belle, Queen of the Valley, and Pride of America prove productive with strong flavor. McCormick stands out for vigor and late-season quality. Blue Vietor yields large tubers but fewer marketable ones.
