/ The students board in private families and

TIE berry season Is just now at its ze-
nth, and our mountains are yielding a
very heavy crop of black raspberries. We
Tesume over 75 bushels of these have
been gathered within one mile from the
Court House this season. The season
led off with larger crop Of strawberries
than was ever before known In the coun-
ty and they were followed by moderate
|! large crop of red raspberries, though
not so abundant as last year. The black
mPberry crop is larger than ever before
known while the blackberres, just be-
ginning to ripen, promise to be compare
lively abundant. 1t is useless to attempt
to estimate the number of bushels Of ber-
res growing in this county-our hills
and valleys are covered with them but
We heard veraclous men specuiating upon
the subject Tuesday, and they estimated
that one millions bushels of berries would
be safe estimate of the growth, of all
kinds, within this county this season.
We're these picked and brought into mar
iet, green, at the lowest buying price, 5
cents a quart, the value would be over
100000. We estimate the number
Of bushels actually picked and dried in
this county this year at 1000, or ? bush
els is each of the 1000 families, which
at y cents a quart would be $4,000.
1ost Of these, however vii! be used in
the county, about 500 bushels, perhaps,
hiding an outside market. Reader re-
lect upon these estimates-they are not
Ar away from the truth.
