 A MUSTARD PLANT-A great deal has been said about the ability or grain of mustard seed to make It's presence known in the world. Yester- day Mrs Hugh Mcintyre, who lives eight miles southwest of the city brought to the board of trade single mustard plant about two feet high and large enough to almost fill a bushel basket. She said they had a little bed of mustard four feet wide and ten feet long that was planted for greens. There are enough greens in this one plant to furnish a meal for two big families. The mustard in the littie bed referred to grows so fast they cannot keen it cut down for use and it looks wasteful to throw it away. It was planted on the 18th of August.
