In an item of our last issue it
was mentioned that Henry Stone
was drying his prunes over. This
was mistake, MIR. Stone having
marketed all the prunes he dried
in tirst-class condition. Our in

to be re-dried at the Stone dryer
and also that it was Mr.. Stones
fruit. The fact of the matter is

part of some of his men employed.
Mr.. Bell is all through new and did
not lose q prups.
