Some strawberries were shown the |
Democrat one day last week which were
picked in the garden of n. G. Brown of
West Paris from plants set in the spring. |
They were not set with the expectation |
of picking fruit from them this fall, but |
enough ripened in the fine weather so .
that Mr.. Browns family had them on the |
table. In this connection 1t may be men,
toned that several people have picked |
ripe wild rsspberries within the past
week or two, but that is nothing uncom-
mon in warm October days.
