Rain Holds Up j
Potato Harvest
t
(Continued from page 1)
, <
cters are a variety developed by <
Mr. Sherrod, who said they were {
the only practical result of seed !<
experimentation on his part. |J
In addition to potatoes, Mr. <
Sherrod is at present concentrat- <
ing on cabbage. He has two giant j i
heads maturing in his fields !
now, one of which, a 35-pound- <
cr, made news in the Seattle <
Post-Intelligencer recently. j
However, Mr. Sherrod has (
grown one head larger in former <
year, and he has his fingers (
crossed on this year’s possibili- <
ties. He’s shooting at the 50- (
pound marker' now, and he *
tfiinks there’s a. good chance of (
reaching that goal if the recent {
heavy rains are followed by a (
period of warm weather. * <
Apple trees are also another (
venture on the Sherrod farm. <
There are at present several <
trees there, six to seven feet (
l^igh, on which the farmer graft- <
ed imported Swedish stock re- (
cently. No fruit has matured <
yet, but he has hope of a Mat- <
anuska Valley apple crop in the (
years ahead. > ^
