GROW FIGS IN THE SOUTH

The fig is said to be the new
source of wealth. While they can
not be transported very far in their
raw shape it is declared there is
great dividend producing power in
the dried or preserved fig. And
in the South figs will grow like
children in a poor mans cabin. We
have heard lot about the money
to be made from raising pecans and
from theincomes derived from peach
orchards and diversified crops, but
these are said to be mere pikers
when it comes to garnering wealth
comparable to the money to be made
from fig culture.
South Carolinians seem to have
made up their minds to make their
lands yield handsome profit
through the growing of figs. Near
Yemassee we learn preserving has
started on the big fig farm. The
yield this year is small and only
samples for distribution to contract
holders are being packed. About
$4,000 fig trees have been planted
and these have done admirably, the
yield this season being considered
splendid in view Of the youthful
ness of the trees and the weather
conditions. The Celestial figs are
produced. Modern machinery has
been installed and the samples are
reported to be very inviting in taste
as we'll as in appearance. The pro-
cess of packing Is very interesting.
The figs, in their jars, are thorough
ly cooked. The management is
confident that it will have no diff
fculty in fiding read markets, as
the preserved Celestial fig is very
much in demand.
Figs, unfortunately, cannot be
shipped any great distance unless
dried or preserved. Uncle Sam
won't even let you send rich, ripe
fig in parcel post because there is
no way of keeping it from spelling
in transit. But the preserved fig is
in demand all the time
The figs are very easily raised
The trees grown fast and need little
attention The Southern fig seems
about to come into its own at las,
and the world will be the gamer
because of it.-Savannah Press

in the communication, that she is
of a pair of swindlers who operated
about two years ago in Miami and
