Tall story From Malone which shows
What May lie Done Possibly.


G'rom the Plattsburgh Stnr)
Some weeks ago the Star published an
article on the bluebcrry industry in the
Flat Rock district. II was quite gene
rally reproduced In our esteemed con-
temporaries in this section. the greater
part OF II finding its way finally into
the columns of both the morning and
afternoon editions Of orr city neighbor.
In the article II was stated that in a
good year. an exceptionally fast picker
had been known 20 gather 10 quarts In
n day. This was commented or as being
an exaggerated statement, qualified even
as IL was. This leads 10 the rcproduc-
ton Of the following from the Malone
Telegram:
Several gentlemen Of this village.
quite prominent in official and business
life met on the street this morning and
after n time the conversation turned on
the matter OF hlueherr'es and the pick
ing Of the same ono of these gentle
mon rather startled his hearers when he
made tho statement that some years
ago. VIXEN he md h's wife were wont
70 go ont into the fields and gather the
succulcrt fruits thew struck place
that was literally blue with tho berries
and In practically three hours they gath
cred six and one-half bushels Of them.
They did not pick them by hand. but
"scooped" them with a dipper or basin.
The narrator Of the story said that he
used Il three pint basin and az nearly
every scoop he would I'll the dish.
Some Of tho people have scoffed at
the idea OF picking blueberries in the
manner above indicated but the gentle
man who told TIE above tale IL noted
for his truthfulness and would not tell
lie for the mntter of bushel or
two of blueberries."
