BY THE HOLLAND IMMIGRANTS
WHO HAVE SETTLED ABOUT
EASTON, MD.
Easton, Md, May THE newly ar
rived Hollanders have found, growing
in the woods here in large quantities a
variety of edible mushroom, known as
the sponge mushroom. 1t is a species
very highly esteemed in Holland, and
the Dutchmen were elated when they
found it growing here. 1t has been
known here, of course, as long as any
other fungus, but it was condemned
poisonous. 1t is not, however, and is
really more palatable and has a. more
delicious flavor than the "button"
mushrooms of the old pasture fields,
the only kind the people here ever dared
to eat.
DR.. Lloyd ~ Smith, who is an ex-
pert in mushrooms and knows all the
varieties, as we'll as a scientist as a
bon vivant, says this is the true sponge
mushroom a most wholesome variety
and regarded with great favor by cpl
cures. He was unaware of its exist
ence here, as he is not native and has
resided here Only--a few years. 1t re-
mained for the immigrant greer" Hol-
lauders to discover this product, which
