MADE $50 BY SALE
OF BLACKBERRIES

A very considerable source of rev.
enre to truck farmers and suburban
residents of this community this year
has been the blackberry crop, there
having been marketed here an enor
nous amount of this fruit, the prices
ranging from Csc to 4Oc per gallon,
the demand being equal to, if not
greater than the supply.
One trucker who lives within the
corporate limits of the city informed
News man that from a small patch of
wild vines which grew voluntarily on
his premises and which he had cult.
waited, he had realized more than $50
this season, and that the vines were
still fruiting abundantly.
There is not a more luscious fruit
known than the blackberry nor one
which can be prepared in more delici
Gus and appetizing ways, and if culti-
waited and handled in crates and quart
boxes the same a. strawberries, there
is no reason why this should not be-
come as successful and profitable an
industry as any other bronch of fruit
culture.
