Northern Vegetables Coming This
Way Till the Season Here Opens
Cabbages are coming in from the north
in great quantities now. Several hundred
barrels were received yesterday.
"Where do you ship themg' a dealer was
asked.
"All over the country. Our trade ex-
tends into Florida. Over 400 barrels were
shipped to Florida yesterday. You see the
season for cabbages in Florida and through
the entire south has run out, and the supply
has to come from the north. The cabbage
season in Florida will begin again in Janu-
airy, and by that time the northern cabbage
will be played out, and the markets
will be supplied by the Florida cabbage.
The cabbage that comes from the north go
in wholesale lots at 9 cents head and it is
difficult to supply the demand at these
prices. The interior towns in the state
take large lots"
What causes the great demand"
THE scarcity of other vegetables on the
market. Turnips are about the only vege-
tables that are raised here now and they are
not at all plentiful
