BLACKBIRD.
Tomato Season Drawing to a Close
With $1.O5 Market.

AVudIO OcdSOH Drawing 10 d OIOSe
With $1.05 Market.
Blackbird, Sept. 16.-Tomatoes are
selling in the local markets here from
85 cents to $1.O5 a basket and while
they seem to be plentiful most grow
ers say they will soon have to aban-
don their patches as the vines are al
most bare of fruit.
Owing to high price in cutting corn,
in some instances Is cents a shock,
some farmers say they will let their
corn stand in the fields as the fodder
is in such poor condition that it will
not pay them to save it. They will
husk the corn from the stalks and
feed the fodder to their stock in the
fields, but, saving the cost of cutting.
Fishermen along the river front and
in the various creeks in this section
are now making some fine catches,
including some very large carp, cat
fish and white perch. Crabs are also
plentiful and exceptionally large for
this time of year.
