City and Vicinity. | Says it Lecks Bad. The Magnet enters a kick against the cemetery association, because Itasca cemetery is an: unsightly mass of weeds. Our contemporary claims that the place looks hke a graveyard, and is unfit even for a dead man to live jn. But the association may not be altogether to blame for this. | The system under which the cemetery is operated applies the money received for lots in improving the grounds, and if they are not in as good a shape as might be the case it 1s because peo- ple are so unreasonable that they object to dying even for such laudable purposes as beautifying the cemetery, But the place as it now stands is hardly a credit to the community and a litle improving would. help out wonderfully. Early Potatoes. You may think we ar2 joking when we developed potatoes that were grown this year, but it is a fact, nevertheless. Last Saturday afterncom M. A. Yan- | cey brought to this office three new potatoes, weighing altogether about a pound. He had procured them in the cellar of S. J. Cable, where the seed vegetable had been covered with straw and dirt. Mr. Yancey says that raising potatoes in this manner is y that we have seen, large, well | not new to him, he having often done | it in Missourt and Iowa. He was somewhat surprised, however, at the size that the specimens found here had attained, Itis certain that he is en- titled to the honor of haviug raised the earliest potatoes in this section.
