Cuban Vegetables in Chicago Markets

Cuban Vegetables in Chicago Markets
The appearance of Cuban vegeta
bles in Chicago market perhaps
marks the beginning of considerable
trade in vegetables raised on that
island. Hitherto we have looked
upon the Antilles as producers OF
fruits for our markets as well as
of sugar and tobacco. This year
there have appeared also onions, to-
matoes, potatoes and squashes. With
good transportation facilities this
trade may become considerable. The
Island of Cuba has immense advan
tages in the way of climate that place
her ahead of anything on our main
land, at certain seasons of the year
1t may be that sometime these is
lands will become the great winter
garden Of the United States-the hot
bed also in which are to be started
the plants that are later to develop
in northern gardens. In fact, under
scientific treatment, the amount OF
produce that could be raised on these
tropical islands is almost beyond
computation.
