We Have A Large Puff Ball
Clarkston is always at the front, and her last attempt was to produce a puff ball that would surpass the one raised at Orion a short time ago. One day this week, Albert Hammond, living a half a mile from this place, left a large puff ball in John Smith's market window and it is the largest ever seen in this locality. It measures 48 inches in circumference, 16 inches in diameter and weighed 7 pounds. This surpasses the Orion puff ball in size but not weight. Can you beat it?
