Because then the blood stream is sluggish

Pennsylvania Industry,

The busiest persons in this city at
present are those of calling which
probably is unknown in any other
place in this country. That calling is
the professional cutting Of cabbage for
sauerkraut making. The cutter travels
about the city from house to house from
the latter part of October to the mid
die of November. by which time the
sauerkraut-making season is over.
The father of the business is Michael
Bruckman, who has cut cabbage for
Rea''ing's best families tor many years.
There are few families in this city from
the highest to the lowest, that fail to
put down a supply of sauerkraut every
fall. Brakeman alone cuts up 200
heads of cabbage a day during the put
ting down season. His cabba ge-cutter
he imported from Germany, and he
says there is not another like it in this
country.
1t is the well-to-do families and sa-
loon-keepers who hire their cabbage
cut, although the charge is only one
cent y head. The saloonkeepers are
the best customers of the cabbage-cut-
tiers, for they order hundreds of heads
cut at a time. Sauerkraut for lunch is
one of the delicacies of Rea1 ding all the
year round.
During the last half of October and
the first half OF November, Cutter
Bruckman estimates, there are not less
than 1000 heads of cabbage cut every
day for sauerkraut in Reading, or CO.,
600 heads for the season. Those who
do not hire their kraut crop cut have
cutters of their own, or wait their turn
to borrow Of q neighbor who has. No
Reading household IS exactly complete
without cabbage-cutter. The person
who cuts cabbage for kraut profession
ally has nothing 20 do with the making
OF the kraut That is dore by the fam
lily, and the family in Berks County
that does not know all the mysteries of
sauerkraut-making had better keep it's
ignorance to itself. No family puts
down less than ten heads of cabbage in
pickle to 'sripen'' into kraut, while the
cutter frequently has job of hum
dred heads or more to cut at single
