Ocean as may be selected and TO the Of China

After radishes come peas, beats,
turnips, early potatoes and a host Of
other things that keep one busy and
are in good demand. Nearly all these
things must be handled with care,
and proper crates are indispensable.
Suppose we have a couple of acres OF
Improved Early Ohio potatoes that
were planted about March Is, and
were ready to dig June l. One must
dig them on pleasant day, when the
ground is not wet. They must be put
into the crates with care, just AS one
would eggs, the crates placed in a
wagon and taken to a cool cellar, and
one is then ready to market them on
few minutes notice, at, for instance
a muddy time when all must eat but
no one can dig potatoes. These crates
must be left in the store and the mer-
chant generally delivers the potatoes
in them, and thus they are handled
but once.
If one can manage to sell ones
vegetables, the money made from
such garden stuff is enormous. al
ways sort all garden stuff and never
under any circumstances, allow any
small or inferior article to go to mar
ket. For marketing apples and
peaches there is nothing to compare
with crates. In displaying vegetables
such as onions, potatoes, cabbage etc.,
at the local fair, well-made crate is
half oft. / make small ones, hold
ing peck each, out of planed ,laths,
for potatoes and fruit, and a whole
load can be taken to the fair and not
in the least injured.
