MILLION SWEET POTATO PLANTS
Strawberry Plants by the Hundred
Thousand Shipped From Triton.


Thousand Shipped From Triton.
A Triton company shipped last
week 100000 strawberry plants,
Florida being the principal market.
1t is shipping this week about TO-
600 plants daily.
The hot weather during August
kept the older plants from branch
ing as they usually do, and this has
cut down the crop of young plants
to such an extent that the company
fears it will soon have to turn down
orders and stop shipping. Every
plant it ships is paid for before it is
packed.
The company has already sold q
100000 sweet potato plants for next
season. This will necessitate bed
ding 1000 bushels of potatoes this
winter. Last season they sold over
100000 plants.

Farmer boys with hayracks met
the electric cars of the Joliet rail-
way at VOLTS Station, two miles
from Lumbard's farm, and carried
many sightseers to the match
Contest Open to All Corners.
Delegates from eastern cities were
present to get information regard
ing the conducting of the match to
apply to matches to be arranged in
other places. The Wheatland con-
test being open to entries from any
part of the United States and being
one of the most widely advertised
matches held annually is considered
a good one to pattern after.
