EARLY FRUITS, VEGETABLES AND GENERAL
PRODUCE.
The opening of the Southern Railroad
has given great impetus to the cultivation
of early fruits and vegetables in the imme-
diate neighborho Il, an industry which
will be largely increased as the farmers and
gardeners realize its remunerative charac-
ter. To properly handle these products to
receive them from the farmer and ship
them to9a more Northern market, is an
important branch of trade, and requires
not only capital but ex xperience and general
aptitude for the business. This indus
try is very ably conducted here
whose store is located at No. 1914 Market
street, between Seventh and Eighth. Mr..
