John Parharn Long

John Parham Long was born Aug, 31, 1914, in Judsonia, Ark. His little spirit was kissed away June 21, 1916. Everything was done for little John that could be, by an anxious father and mother loving sisters and brothers, and faithful physicians.

be shipped will reach the 40 mark.
 The shipments, so far, have all been consigned to northern mar kets but the balance of the crop will be moved south.
 The price has ranged from soc to Soc per bushel with the de- mand fair. The low price is ex- plained by the fact that the St. Louis market has been handling home grown potatoes at least a week earlier thls year than ever before.
