EVENING JOURNAL today by parcels
post, from the Third Annual Potato

receives many novelties and strange
specimens every day, but this is the
first time that Il has ever received a
whole breakfast by parcels post from
such a great distance as Twin Falls,
Idaho, and in perfect condition at that.
The potato would easily make good
breakfast for two persons and is a
good sample of what western farms
can produce.
The cost of sending It by parcels
post to Wilmington was ~ cents,
which is believed to be a record for
the shipment of breakfast over dis
tance Of LOO miles.
With the potato came several an
nouncement cards boosting Twin Falls
and an invitation TO visit the city and
partake of breakfast consisting or
products from the farms in that Vi
cinity. The invitation closes with
the following
But If it shall be your misfortune
to be forced TO decline this urgent
invitation to be with us in person,
then please take this good Twin Falls,
Idaho, potato, bake It, break il and
eat it at seven o'clock February 18th
and be with us in spirit"
The potato is a good example Of the
advertising schemes which western
