Potatoes are a rather plentiful crop this year, but we doubt if anybody can beat the record compiled by Mr. Fred Heft of Chesley, who found no less than 66 potatoes under one hill. They ranged in size from an egg to the size of a marble, and, when Fred found such a large number turning up, he thought it might be well to see just how many there were, so he saved a basket for this particular hill and, after having all of them dug up, he counted the number in the basket and it came to 56. After such yeild it might pay Fred well to buy pota- toes for his own use and save th» ones he grew for seed, as there will likley be a big demand for them.â€" Chesley Enterprise.

A friend of ours during a conver- aation the other day esked whether •we had ever notice*! that all climbing vines in the country always oircle to the right. We had to admit that so far as we were concerned they might be climbing in any and every dir-ection but a casual examination of all vines clou »t h»n<l t^iP following day re- vealed that our informant was right. Just why plants always go this on* -way has not been explained to us hut our informant did tell us that south of the equator they climb in the op- posite direction.
