Steps toward the standardizing of Minnesota potatoes are being taken by the Minnesota Crop Improvement association and the Minnesota Po- tato Growers’ association. A sub-committee on potatoes in the Minnesota Crop Improvement as- sociation has outlined a tentative scheme for standardizing varieties and giving a simple and effcient clas- sification. The scheme, as devised, calls for the elimination of all dup- licates and of classifyng all the oval types. Among the late potatoes there are two main types——the Rurals and the Green Mountain. The Rurals are distinguished by purple flowers and purple stalks and include Rural New Yorker, Carman No. 5 and Walter Raleigh. .The Green Mountain type is distinguished. by white flowers and green stalks, and includes the Green Mountain, the McKinley and Carman No. 1. A third group, known as the Burbank, has for its representatives the Burbank and Russett or Netted Gem. The Russett or Netted Gem is recommended for special localities. Among the early potatoes, classi- fied according to the color of the tu- ber, are the Early Ohio, Triumph and Cobbler. This scheme, in the preparation of which the Improvement association's sub-committée co-operated with the Potato Growers’ association, has met with high praise and it is believed when the plan for standardizing has been fully developed, Minnesota’s standards-and classes will rank as the equals of those of other promin- ent potato growing states. Minnesota. is making rapid strides as a potato state and this movement to organize the industry for uniform- ity and high quality of product will do much to advance the business and give Minnesota potato growers higher prices for their output.
