POTATO POTATO 527 grown primarily for table use, the ideal tuber is white-fleshed, rich in starch, medium size, oval, smooth and with shallow eyes. Much attention is given to securing increased disease-resistance. On the continent the ideal table variety is smaller, yellow-fleshed, relatively poorer in starch and richer in proteids. The breeding of starch-rich varieties for stock-feed and factory purposes has received attention, especially in Germany and Austria. Potato-growing in the South. By H. Harold Hume. In recent years the potato, in common with other truck crops, has received an increasing share of attention in the southern states. On the Atlantic seaboard the southern potato territory may be said to extend from Florida to Virginia, the area of greatest production being in northeastern North Carolina and around Norfolk, Va. Cropping system. One of the principal differences in the culture of the potato in the North and in the South is that in the South two crops are grown, one in autumn and the other in spring. The spring crop is by far the larger and more important, being grown to supply the north- ern spring demand for new pota- toes, while the relatively small fall crop is disposed of locally. Plant- ing for the fall crop in Florida is made in late September or early October; in the latitude .of Savan- nah, in the latter part of August or early September; and farther north in the early part of August. The spring crop is generally planted in the latter half of January and in February and March, depending on the section. This crop is marketed between the latter part of April and the middle of July. Culture. Varieties.—Earliness is the principal considera- tion in the selection of varieties for the southern crop. If the variety is not early it will not meet the exacting conditions imposed on the culture of the crop by ma
