they raise let if ha for tho local
market. The first Is tho cultivat
ed dewberry, which is oaofly grown
the vices ylold lartoly and It : Io •
•ure crop. This berry I* aCclimat*
ed to our oectlon and can bo frown
to perfection. Ih several counties
in -south Georgia many fields ort
planted In dewberries and tho cro*
averages $L60 per crate. This ber
ry is one of the earliest fruits-on
the market in the sprint and al
ways In demand.
Then Mr*. Troutman oay» oh#
wantg to see next year field* in
stead of patches planted tn tho to
mato, for it !o tho surest and boot
crop, our farmers can grow. B1
producing tomatoes by ths car
load ready sale can be found tot
th^m, and buyers will be her* os
'the ground. Let ouV farmers or*
ganlzr for the growing of tomatoes,
and all plant a standard variety*
We must have a packing plant fol
their handling, yrlwre they can be
sorted and put in marketable con*
dltion like apples around Cornelia
And if we wll lestablish In Athens
a cannery and tomato catsup fee
(pry not a pound of. this yegftablt
need be wa*e<V Ths cull* esn
t* utilized for canning or making
catsup nnd even green tomato**
can be utilized for the latter pur
pose nnd coloring matter used
Thl* Is one of thst tricks of the
catsup trade. If our farmers will
organize tomato growing clubs, and
grow them by the car-load they
will find It a highly profitable
crop. The tomato is one
most popular vegetable*, used, they
ripen nil through the summer and
will prove an endless source! of
revenue.
The third crop that Mrs. Trout
man want* farmers In this section
to unite on Is ths sweet potato#
Of course they must all plint stan
