The soil of some parts of this valley is so rich that there is not room in it under potato vines for all the pot atoes it will produce, so that they have to grow on the vines. # anyone doubts this, let hin, ao to the ranch of S. s. Green and see for himself.
 Yesterday Mir. Green brought to The Republican office a potato vine on which more than dozen potatoes were growing. varying in sixe from a small hen egg to that of a bird egg. They are growing on all parts of the vine from the lower to the topmost branches. The potatoes are perfectly formed. with eyes, and differ from ordin- ary potatoes only in color.. They are green, like the vine, or as po- tatoes exposed to the sun become. But all the potatoevwere not on the vine.. The hill from which it grew was filled with them. The rest, fos which there was no room, were taken up and nourished on the vine.
