An item in the Tyler correspon-!
dence of last week reminded us of
the days when North Sas Juan and
all the Ridge down from there raiscrops of wonderful
potatoes. The days when they had
plenty of water on the Ridge. We
ean safely say that no where in
this world could some of the potatoes be excelled.
We recall a erop that was raised
by the ate W. E. Ransom of Sebastopol. As a‘rule, potatoes that are
very large and long are apt to be
hollow ‘in the center. We cannot recall the name of this particular
variety, but they were pink in color
and nearly all from 8 to 10 inches
long, and out of a whole sack we
found but two with a small hollow
place in the center. The San Juan
Ridge and ranches near seemed just
the place for the Burbank to flourish. Will this ever -eome back?
Waiting makes us weary and heartsick. f
We will close with congratulations
to The Nugget and best wishes for
its future suceess and prosperity.
