and a bushel of canteloupes that
Mr. and Mrs. L. K. Tutt took to
their parents, Mr. and Mrs. R. E.
Whiteside, of Edmonton, Alberta,
Canada, were the source of much
excitement when they

"You must unload the Ranch-

a surprise for you from Texas!”
At the sight of them Mr. White-

"What whoppers! My land and

It was not long before all the
neighbors had seen the fruit.
Melons are shipped into Edmon-

has to pay for them, they are
really a treat. They are small
and it is seldom that one is seen
that weighs over 20 pounds.
