BERRY GROWING

Editor RECORD:-On June q,
1893, homesteaded a piece Of
land three miles south Of Hardy,
and began at once building and
improving. AS soon as | home
steaded several of my neighbors
laughed at me and said that |
would starve to death on that
high, dry and rocky land. I
would generally tell them when
they were sympathizing with me
about giving away my home
stead right, was very thankful
to them for their sympathy, but
| thought ! knew what | was
doing when | settled on this
place, and Iyet think so, and
my neighbors are beginning to
think the same, or that is the
way they talk. '.
In April, 1895, | planted 2 1.2
acres in raspberries, and in the
same month 1896, | planted 8 ia
acres in Strawberry vines, but
owing to the dry spring ! failed
to get good stand, only about
3-4 of a stand. This spring,
1887, during April and May,
while my neighbors were plant
ing their A cent cotton, | was
shipping 242 crates of straw
berries that netted me S412,35,
besides $780, 40 that | have paid
out to hands in my neigbborhood
for picking berries,
This 5 IA acres of Strawberries
and 2 1-2 acres Of raspberries
only required one hand 3 1-2
months to cultivate them. After
having all my berries picked,
packed and shipped, | have roal-
lied more money than a half
dozen Of the average cotton
crops will sell for after the farm

footed children, that ought to be
