Frank Willard observed today that
he had bought and shipped five car
loads of potatoes last week, paying
rs cents a bushel for them. He says
that the hard frost of last week froze
some of the potatoes in the shallow
er ground, making it necessary for
them all to be hand sorted before
marketing. The ground did not
freeze to any considerable depth, nor
of the potatoes were there any con-
siderable quantity frozen. but only
those lying close to the top or ex-
posed were spoiled.
