Mrs. Kilworth Raises
Some NIce Potatoes

---------

We have on display in our win-
dow three large potatoes which came
from the patch of Mrs. Mary (Healey) Kil-
worth (1841-1951). These spuds are exceptional-
ly large and some of the finest we've
seen this year. The fact that Mrs.
Kilworth is about 90 years of age
and raised quite a lot of garden
truck this season puts some of we
younger folk to shame. The three
potatoes brought to this office will
make any ordinary family enough
for two good meals.
