This book is intended to give brief and practical suggestions on the growing breeding and marketing of potatoes. It is written especially for the practical farmer and the student who may wish concise information on the potato without having to read many miscellaneous sources of information especially experiment station bulletins which although highly valuable are likely to contain much detail. The chapters on breeding and varieties occupy an unusually large proportion of the book. This is for the reason that these subjects have been treated in potato literature much less than methods of culture and the general interest in them has called for this extended discussion to meet not only the necessities of the case but also the public demand. 319 pp.
