LOT OF BLACKBERRIES
= IN ONE STORY! NEXT

MIR. l.. l.. Lib" Newcom is au-
thority for the statement that Mrs.
Newcom, and her children, have
picked and delivered 21S gallons of
blackberries during the present sea-
son, that is. they have marketed that
amount of berries. which does not
take into consideration or account,
the quantity worked into jelly, jam,
cobblor' and can, at home.
We doubt not the ability of the
good lady and children to perform
this unusual feat, but somehow we
rather wish that Mrs Newcom had
given us the report at first hand.
