A leading cabbage grower in this
state recently asserted that, owing to
the low prices which prevailed last
season, he and several others en-
gagged in the same industry found it
Improbable TO ship their crops and
the rOtted in the fields.
We wondered at the time whether
this loss could not have been aveTted
if the cabbage had been turned into
krout. Krout making is a simple OPP
Grafton, requiring only tight barrels,
a chopper, salt and common sense, and
we believe these men might have
realized a fair profit from their un-
salable crops if they had had the fore
sight to turn them into a marketable
commodity under another form, for
which there is demand.
As soon as it becomes Improbable
for Florida strawberry growers to
ship berries north they usually pillow
up the plants that are still heavily
fruited, thus utterly destroying guam
titles of fruit that could be probably
saved by canning or preserving This
appears to ms a needless and most eX-
tTavagant waste.
A bushel of strawberries will make
about so cans, which if sold for only
10 cents A can would seem to be
better than throwing them away 4
bushel of tomatoes will make twenty
three pound cans, and yet thousands
of bushels OF tomatoes rot on the
vines or are destroyed as soon as the
shipping season ends. 1t sometimes
happens that just when a fruit or
truck grower has a good crop ready
to ship the market is glutted, and
much of it is sold for the bare cost Of

merry comes TO his relief. With only
a small one in operation, he can at
once turn his surplus into a profit
and is really Independent Of market
fluctuations.
cheap canning outfits, which make
it possible to adopt in a small way
the methods of the canneTy, can now
be purchased and the results are sat-
isfactory.
There is a ready sale for fruits and
vegetables put up by persons known
to be careful and Clearly The sale
of these home products must be in
competition with factory goods, but
there is an increasing class OF appre-
ciatlve buyers with whom quality is
of more importance than price. IL
the work is done with as much care
as for ones own table, there viii be
no lack of purchasers.
1t is work that could engage the
activities of the women and children,
and would bring many dollar into
the home and add much to the com
fort of the family. In his youthful
days the writer had it impressed upon
his conscience that it was sinful to
waste or destroy any particle OF food,
which any living thing might need
The lesson has chung to him, and he
believes that if there is any sin for
which the growers of Florida might
stand impeached, it is this eXtrava-
CANT waste of good, wholesome food
products which nature so bountifully
provides.

leading questions of the day in this

This prophecy ought to be a true
one. Such a convention is d state
need. The state has already paid out
many times the cost of a constitu-
tional convention in seeking TO obtain
necessary amendments to it's basic
laws through legislative resolution and
the referendum. The plan has not
worked. What is necessary is a con-
vention composed of men we'll ground

new set of organic provisions.

in the New England states and the

tants of the middle and New England
