 A VEGETABLE CURlOSITY.-That is it is a vegetable curiosity if a watermelon is vegetable. though most people think it is the king of fruits. This watermelon, when it was a baby, crawled into an ordinary tin fruit can that was lacking both top and bottom, and. as it rather enjoyed the shade. the grower allowed it to stay there. It finally Outgrew the can, but 1t was then too big to crawl out. The part that was in the can simply had to quit doing business and the end that stuck out beyond it grew as big as small pumpkin. The grower brought 1t to George Burtis store. where 1t is on exhibition. It is a watermelon with d handle on it, and the handle securely bound in tin.
