BIG PROFIT FROM

the fruit of good quality, while the
market afforded by the Columbia Can.

where otherwise there would be no

AS an indication of the value Of the
crop J R. Murphy harvested and sold
from less than three acres 61,205
pounds of tomatoes for which the Co.
lumbia Canning Co. paid him $244S2

BIG SWEET TATER
RECALLS THE PAST

Register T. E. Lipscomb, while look
ing at the eight-pound sweet potato
at The Herald office, raised by A. ]
Nichols, remarked that just fifty years
ago a mammoth crop of sweet pota
toes was raised in this county and that
his father dug potato from his patch
that weighed just eight pounds.
At that time Mr.. Lipscomb said the
potatoes sold at ten cents a bushel in
the field, while now the price is sixty
cents bushel, showing the upward
trend in all the necessities of life
Those were the good old days when
was thing so rare that it
was never anticipated and no provis-
lon was made for 1t in the general
order of life. People who wanted to
buy potatoes then, Mr.. Lipscomb sadi,
we're simply directed to the field and
hey went alone and dug all they
wanted, keeping the account them
selves, and paying according to their
'wn reckoning.

that it was illustrated by more than
ninety stereopticon views showing
conditions at first hand just as they
exist in the countries where missions
have been planted by the Presbyte-

good and graphically depict the situa-

little doubt that 1t prove to be a great
spiritual blessing to the church. The
