Profit in Growing Vegetables.

In a report published by the depart
ment of commerce and labor on the
farming carried on by Italians in
Hammonton, N. j., we have such
items as net profit of Sl60 from a
quarter acre OF Strawberi les; $1,000
net profit in two years from 30 acres
of raspberries, by an Italian hardly
able to speak or write English; 49,
600 net profit on dewberries and
blackberries, acreage not given; a
father and son bought a farm (acre-
age not stated for g., 900, leaving a
mortgage of $500. In one season,
1906, they paid the mortgage and all
their living expenses and saved $500
in addition. An Italian laborer in
the limits of Greater New York city
made as much as $1,000 net profit
from little more than an acre and a
hall of land last year, growing veget-
ables for the market.

in one year snakes killed 1900 per-
sons, tigers devouring an even 900,
leopards 300, wolves 270 and other
animals 686.
When it comes to cattle and other
farm animals, the leopards were most
destructive since they made way with
AZ, 900, tigers coming next $4,000,
wolves with 10, 900 while snakes have
only $500 charged against them.
But man was not altogether lazy
since ne killed 10000 serpents and
