In charge of Mr*. W. A. Monk, furnishes an interesting exhibit of sweet potatoes, five varieties being shown. One most cultivated in Worth county—and It is said that the land In that section Is especially adapted to the raising of potatoes—Is called the Jerusalem yam. Two are plenty big enough to supply a whole family at a meal. They bake easily and'are very sweet. The potato chiefly raised In Worth county, and the one of all In the ex hibit which will attract tho. most at tention, goes by the name of "nig ger-killer." It Is said that country ne groes like them so well that they eat them without regal’d to gastronomic or digestive’ consequences. This pota to Is almost aa large as the yam, but ha* a peculiar blood-red peeling. When peeled, however, the potato Is curiously white and somewhat starchy. It makes excellent pies and puddings and Is said to excel all other potatoes for fry ing purposes. It’le also used for the making of starch.
