NEWSPAPER editing is very fun
ny business. Ifyou give man
puff he never sees it; but let one line
against him appear and he sees it
before the paper is off the press; and
while he would not have time to stop
on the street and say "thank you"
he has time to run all over town and
denounce the editor who seeks to
print all the news.
The small fruit industry is as
suming considerable proportions
here. A number of farmers are Civ
ing their attention to it and are
bringing about very satisfactory
results. Virgil Vandervort and AL
bert Hough are the leaders in this
line of industry. A few days ago
in conversation with Mr.. Wander
wort we learned that his strawberry
crop for this year will amount to six
hundred gallons, though it is not as
large as usual. The price will aver
age little over so cents per gallon
thus netting him more than $500,
from an acre of ground. This is
but one item in Mr. Vandervort's
business. He raises large quaint
ties of raspberries, goose berries,
currants and other small fruits. He
also does quite a business in
raising nursery stock. AS sample
of his success we may cite basket
of strawberries procured from him
few days ago that would average
about four inches in circumference
and that were of delightful flavor.
His success and consequent profit
are simply the result of careful and
intelligent work, and follow what
some people are pleased to term
"book farmin" Mr.. Vandervort is
an educated man and gives thought
to his business. 1t would be well
for us to have many more such men
as himself and Mr.. Hough.
They are Good Enough.
