Continue Demand
or Local Grass

With a small amount of aspara-
gus still being shipped, check re-
vealed Tuesday that to date this
season ITO carloads have been
shipped from Kennewick and
nearly as much more has gone out
by truck.
About 60 per cent of the grass
has been processed and the bal
ance has gone to the fresh market.
ut Is especially significant"
Harold Schultz, assistant county
agent, remarked, shat eastern
professors are now outbidding
western buyers for the Kennewick
crop. California growers stopped
cutting while our crop is still be-
ing sought" alaE
The fine quality of the local
product is the only reason Schulz
could give for the buying demand.
He stated that in spite of the
fact that prices fell this year that
asparagus will continue to be a
stable and profitable crop for
growers Of this area.
