We have been handed a lemon! Not the
first one but the largest home grown one
ever seen. Il was raised on lamon plant
by Mrs. Herman Prescott of West Glover.
The plant is four years old and stands
three feet high. The one handed US weig hs
II ounces and measures 2 iDcnes in dame
ter the largtSt way round. Mrs. PRESCOTT says
the tree has grown foua lemons this sea-
s0n and that one weighed 58 ounces and
made three lemo1 pies better than any she
ever made out of the ordinary lemons.
o only regret is that Mrs. Prescott wants
this lemon returned. We don't mind hav
ing lemons handed us or other fruit of
this kind.
