A Blessing for the Home Electric Fans Box Butte Spuds to Be Served to the Omaha Lions A box of carefully packed Box Butte county potatoes was shipped Mondav morning from the office of the cham ber of commerce to the secretary of tne Lions club ot Umaha, to be served this week at the luncheon at the Fon tenelle hotel. The potatoes were do nated by O. A. O'Dell and were in ex cellent condition. Mr. O'Dell has dis covered the secret of digging his pota toes at exactly the right time, with the result that when he takes them from his pits in the spring they are plump and firm. The potatoes shipped to Omaha were clean, large, un sprouted Early Ohios and should make the Omaha Lions an excellent feed as well as giving Box Butte county spuds some more good advertising.
