Farmers who grow sweet potatoes
in this part of Kent county always
dig this crop as early as the season
will permit. This year they started
early in this work, but the cold snap
of last Saturday and Sunday certain
ly got hustle on them sure enough.
The vines were killed by the frost
and freezing temperature and few
want the potatoes to remain in the
ground after this occurs; it is bet
ter to get them in the storage
houses quickly. Prices are all right.
Corn husking has started with a
number of growers; but that can be
postponed until the sweets are saw
ed/

curve in the road near Whaleyville,
where a truck was standing on the
road unloading. AS the Stokes car
turned the curve, Buick, carrying
a Maryland license went to the left
to pass the truck and crashed into
the Ford sedan, whose driver at
tempted to leave the road and go
into a corn field to escape, but fail
ed to escape; the Buick crashing in
to them. Their car was ready to
burst in flames, when man cut the
the electric wires which were cross
ed and starting the fire. Neither car
turned over and the Buick was little
damaged. Miss Rayne was exoner-
ated from all blame and as no one
was hurt, it was voted one of those
accidents which it is impossible to
aysfd.
