The only explana tion we could find as why they were there was the name of 0. M. Lehman, Pleasant Valley, written on the tympan of the press. Now if our friend Lehman left these potatoes he would bet ter look out for he may have a damage case on his hands, for it wouldn't take many more such as they to break down the table on the press. However we will forgive him this time on account of the excellent flavor and cook ing qualities of the samples. Monmouth and vicinity can pro duce some of the finest fruit and vegetables of any part of the state and it will soon become noted for its products far and near.
