qualities, the USDA last year
compared the Lenape’s yield
and specific gravity to the per
formance of the standard Ke
tahdin and Kennebec varieties.
Taking an average from five
test locations Maine, North
Carolina, New Jersey, Pennsyl
vania and Texas the results
gave Lenape a clear lead in spe
cific gravity over the other two
varieties, while its mean yield
per acre ran slightly under Ken
nebec’s and considerably higher
than Eetahdin’s.
The Lenape was developed
from a cross of two USDA seed
lings,' 41756 and 83672-3. The
first true seed was grown in
1959 under pedigree number
85141-6 at the Crops Research
Division of the Agricultural ‘Re
search Service at Bettsville, MdT
In addition to the Wise Potato
Chip Co., many State Experi
ment Stations cooperated with
the USDA and ‘the Pennsylvania
Agricultural Experiment Sta
tion in its selection and devel
opment. Among the scientists
mainly responsible for the suc
cess of the new variety are Or.
R. V. Akeley, potato investiga
tion leader at ‘the USDA facil
ity at Beltsville, and Dr. W. R
Mills, professor of plant path
ology at Penn State University.
Foundation seed ot the Len
ope potato is now being produc
ed (by the State Seed Potato
Board of Maine. Seed potatoes
for general use are expected to
be available for the 1969 plant
