1998 Early Harvest Tri-State Trial
	All clones grown in the Early Harvest Tri-State trial produced uniformly light French Fries. Even though both Shepody and FR43 had the largest difference between stem and bud readings they were still within the accectable range. Eleven of the 12 Russet Burbank tubers sampled had either brown center or hollow heart (data not shown).
