Excerpt from The Potato: Its Culture, Uses, History and Classification
In the preparation of this book, it has been the aim of the author to discuss the basic principles underlying the production of potatoes, as well as to include the latest available information in regard to the industry as a whole. No one appreciates more keenly than does the writer how difficult it is to completely cover all phases of the subject. The best that can be hoped for is that it will approach the ideal desired.
No effort has been made to discuss potato production methods in foreign countries, and little is given concerning the varieties grown there. The author's actual Observations and field studies, extending over many years and many states, are used in making the treatment of each topic more practical and complete.
