Mr. Ellis Brings First Sweet Potatoes to Market

Mr. J.G. Ellis, who lives in the Beaver Dam section, brought a quantity of new sweet potatoes to market yesterday. He planted the Porto Rico variety and was the first, so far as The Star has been able to learn, to have large potatoes on the Shelby market.
