1t is said that the commission men of
Philadelphia are paying only fifteen
cents a barrel for cabbages. This is ELL
tirely too low a price when it is con
sidered that it requires sixty head of
cabbages to fill a barrel, especially
when the commission men realize a
good profit on their sale and the retail
ers get from ten to twelve cents a head
for cabbages. From this it would seem
that the farmer, who has all the labor,
receives the poorest returns.
