COTTON PLANT John Gribble, 139 Ken
wood ave., Medford, is known to have a way
with plants. It was for this reason that a
neighbor gave hi m cotton seed last fall to
see if he could make it grow. Gribble planted
it in a flower pot, and now, some eight
months later, he is about to harvest his first
cotton crop. The "crop" amounts to one boll
(arrow; which is beginning 10 swell after los
ing its white blossom. When mature, the boll
will burst, exposing the cotton fiber. The
plant, which first came up like a bean, was
kept indoors through the winter, according
to Gribble, otherwise it never would have
survived.
