Mrs. Hiram Risley has two pumpkins, grown in the town of Adams last season, which are in an excellent state of preservation. Last year she carried one to the grange at Adams Centre in the month of July. When cut, pies were made from it. Anyone would appreciate a bite from those in her possession at the present time.
