NOVESTA FARMER RAISED BUMPER CROP OF POTATOES B. O. Watkins raised a bumper

crop of potatoes on his farm one-

half mile east of Deford this season.

From 3 acres he has harvested 920

bushels of the Rural New Yorker

and Sir Walter Raleigh varieties.

The potatoes were drilled three feet

apart. As the average crop is from

100 to 200 bushels an acre, Mr. Wat-

kins is going to realize a neat sum

from th2s tract of land. He disposed

of about 200 bushels when the mar-

ket reached the 50 cent mark.

Local Option in Lapeer~ Whether or not the saloons will

continue to be outlawed in Lapeer county will be decided at the next April election, and a proposition to

adopt the county road system will also be submitted for adoption or

disapproval. Supervisor Winter,

at the October session of the super-

visors held at Lapeer last week, ob-

jected to the submission of the local option question because many of the petitioners for such action had used their initials instead of giv.ing their

surnames in full, contending that

such could not be counted, This

technicality was submitted to Prose- cuting Attorney Smith, and upon

his opinion that the full name was not necessary, the board voted that the electors should have an opportu-

nity to pass upon ~t.--North Branch
