History OF THE MERCER PorATo.---In
the year 1902 Mr.. John Kilkey Of Mercer
county, Pennsylvania, living along Ncsha
mock creek, planted quantity of blue, red
white and other varieties of potatoes, from
the product of which he selected the above
named variety, which at first were called
Ncshanocks, after the creek near which he
lived. They were soon after brought into
notice by the name of Mercer and cultiva-
ted near Philadelphia, from thence spread
over the whole country, and for II long
time, more generally cultivated than any
other variety, but Of late years have been
rather on the decline, and other new vari-
cites have been introduced, but none Of
which has attained the celebrity of the
Mercer, which was almost universally plan
ted for nearly half II century, owing to its
superior edible qualities and productive
ness. 1t may be a long time before any
one variety Of this valuable esculent to
man will attain the prominence Of the no
bic Mercer, which although having had its
day, is still the iavorte with large num-
Der Of people.
