was in prison for bank robbery.
The old man wrote a letter to his son and mentioned
his predicament. Shortly, he received this reply, "For HEAVEN'S SAKE Dad,
don't dig up that garden, that's where I buried the Money!
At 4 A.M. the next morning, a dozen policemen showed up
and dug up the entire garden, without finding any money.
Confused, the old man wrote another note to his son telling
him what happened, and asking him what to do next.
His son's reply was: "Now plant your potatoes, Dad.
