TRUCK SHIPMENTS HAVE BEEN DOUBLED
Growers Find Sales Good and Prices
Fair-Market Throughout Has
Been Good One for Farmers.

San Benito, TeX-PraCtiCaily all Of
what may be termed winter truck,
cabbage and lettuce for the most part,
has been gathered. Last weeks ship
ment of cabbage was only ten cars,
bringing the total seasons movement
of cabbage up to 993 carloads. These
figures do not include drop shipments
by express, which easily amount to
forty or fifty carloads This is double
the shipment of any previous year and
is about 40 per cent Of the total yield
of the whole lower Rio Grande Valley.
The total shipment of lettuce was
slightly more than a hundred carloads
from 250 acres, about twice the yield
of last year. Returns on lettuce for
this year averaged very well, indeed,
bringing in a total sum far greater
than for any previous year. The high
est price received for single car was
$1,525 in Buffalo, n. Y. This price
holds the record for receipt for any
single car shipped from Texas this
season. Practically all of the lettuce
growers made money this year, one
especial case is that Of four-acre
patch owned by a dentist in San Be-
nito and worked with hired labor,
which yielded net return Of $1,762.
This season has been very success
full from the truck growers stand
point. The market for the whole sea-
son through has been much better
than that of last year, while the total
return from all varieties of truck is
far greater than that of any other year
since the opening Of the valley as a
trucink district.
