cling men who returning bring testimony to
this fact. They found no trouble in disposing OF
pianos. fancy furniture and fine carriages. some
thing they would attempt 20 sell in years

The secret OF this is that the farmers have given
up trying 10 raise wheat and corn on land that is
not suited for the raising of grain and have gone
into the raising Of vegetables and berries

the last two three years. and this year they are
reaping their reward They went about the work
in a busnessliks way and studied the markets
where early fruit and vegetables were IN demand
Much OF the produce went TO NewYork City and
the New England States. The product OF Della

So large is the berry crop that there is not

shore Of Maryland The crop Is not too large, and
can be handled by the railroads with dispatch
Many OF the fruit growers who tore up their
