Farmers to See Potato Variety Demonstrations Two Irish potato demonstrations will be held in the county tomor row and R M Williams, farm agent, announced that it is urg ent that #11 potato growers attend one of the two The first will take place at 10:30 tomorrow morning on the farm of Gardner Gillikin, Bettie, and the second at the farm of Rufus Ogles by and Robert Laughton, Crab Point, at 3:30 p.m The latter meet ing will be on the left hand side of the hard surfaced Crab Point road, near the end. In each demonstration the Es ? sex, Snow Drift, Chenango and Sebago varieties will be compared with the Cobbler. All five varieties will be harvested and ready for ob servation. Mr. Williams explained, "It is the purpose of those attempting to develop better varieties to secure one that will more nearly meet the needs of the consuming public. The Irish Cobbler, which is the pre dominant variety now being grown throughout North Carolina is defi nitely not meeting competition of potatoes grown in other areas. Any variety that skins as easily as the Irish Cobbler, is subject to disease, is produced on a dark type soil, and is shipped to market unwash ed, will continue to meet with less favor each year."
