Lancaster County Cabbages
Worth as Much as Tobacco
Mt. Joy, Pol, Oct. 29.—Winfleld S.
Stoner, of Eden township, who was
among the very flrst in this section
to grow cabbage to any extent, has
been shipping: his crop for the last
11 's a fairly large one and
of pood quality. He is receiving- S2O
a ton for it, which is an advance In
price since he first began to raise
* rs il F° he sol(t ~ as low cs
fS a ton and when it went to $lO it
was considered a good price. At pres
ent prices an acre of cabbage is
about as profitable as an acre of to
bacco. It is not as much trouble to
raise and the farmer gets his money
j out of it much sooner.
