almost every day. Apples, peaches,
pears, grapes-all fruits grown in
temperate climates, aIe found here.
Tomatoes are grown by the acre

Ocean City as being a little North
east of us? Yet a glance at the

with Fredericksburg, Virginia!
Wolchester county was formed
in 1742 but its county seat, Snow
Hill, was one of the "townes and

BY the way, Miss Florence Mason,

known to women all over Mont
