CYCLONE BORED HOLES
IN GO0DW|N'S POTATOES
HERE'S THE PRIZE STORY OF
FREAkiSH STUNTS IN
CYCLONE AREA.

Jackson, Miss, June a--The prize
freak story OF the eyclone-and it's
backed up by the eyidence-comes
from the home of B. c. Goodwin. on
Arlington street, where potato patch
was ruined by the storm.
The twister did something to Mr.
Godwin's potatoes that nobody is yet
able to understand. It didn't merely
tear UP the vines, but went beneath
the soil and ruined the tubers. Po
tatoes dug from the patch Tuesday
morning were found punctured with
holes, and the Feelings badly bruised.
When cut open the potatoes were
found to contain a greenish streak
following the patch of the objects by
which they had been penetrated. but
what those objects were is the mys-
terry that is puzzling Mr. Goodwin and
others who have investigated the af
fair.
No trace of the objects by which
the potatoes were punctured has been
found, although Mr.. Goodwin delved
into the soil for a foot or more. One
theory offered was that hail stones
had been driven into the soil with
force sufficient to penetrate the po-
tatoes, but hail stone would not
leave greenish streak in its wake.
