Big Strawberry Patch.

Horace Marble, of Wheatfleld, has organized a stock company of Indiana men that has purchased 20,000 acres of land in Alabama, and will start one of the biggest strawberry plantations in the United States. About one-half of the acreage is now in plants, and arrangements are now being made to erect a box factory on the plantation. Mr. Marble is known as our ex-audi-tor and sheriff, and he is to be congratulated on his prosperous enterprise.—Lowell Souvenir.
