Potato balls are now more plentiful in
Maine than before in years. One man
found nearly peck in quarter of an
acre Of potatoes. Years ago they were
plentiful, but for half dozen seasons
potato men do not believe peck has
been raised In the state. A Hoult0n
dealer recently offered 500 for q peck
of these balls. A man who planted
some balls last year harvested 10 differ
ent kinds OF potatoes. They were of
fair size and handsome. Years ago
potato balls were 80 numerous that the
boys used to sharpen out sticks and
stick the balls on to see how far they
could throw them.
