ant agricultural agent, was here
also and went to the demonstra.
ton farm Friday morning.
Mr.. Claridge has recently re-
tuned from visit to a 1875 acre
strawberry farm near Arp, in
Smith county, and he says:
The farm is employing q
large force, mostly women anc
childred, who earn from one to
two dollars a day, and who would
not otherwise earn a dollar.
AT this season of the year the
children are out of school, and
the weather being pleasant, the
outdoor work is of great benefit
to them. Owing to the late
freezes. this strawberry field is
only sending out express ship
ments, but next week will begin
to load cars.
Strawberries in East Texas
are one of the most certain crops
which can be grown. and the
surest money makers. Two
hundred cars should go from
Marshall every season. Some
months ago, we had considerable
interest stirred up here in the
planting of strawberries, but
owing to the attention required
by our department in handling
the demonstration train. the
Strawberries deal here fell
through, but a movement will
begin early enough this fall to
make it a sure thing next sea

Marion county is growing
Strawberries very successful by
a few who are now shipping out
by express but if more will take
hold of strawberry growing we
can be shipping by car lots next
season.
