A Track Farmer's ExperieItce •
I began growing three or four acres
of truck for the market soon after I
went to farm=ing for myself, and follow-
ed it up tor some fifteen years, and as
I look back now I do not see how I
should ever have pulled through with-
out the money which my truck brought
me. I did not try to compete with the
regular market gardeners whogrew let-
tuce
and spinach under glass,
not start regularly to market until after
harvest, although I usually grew au
eighth to a fourth of an acre of early
peas which I made profitable. 11y
staple crops were Irish and sweet pota-
toes, tomatoes:, Lima beans, pickles,
sweet corn, nutn leg, husk melons and
turnips. In addition to these I . would
grow some beets, parsnips, squashes,
onions ,nd cabbage., occasionally a few
peppers; watermelons and radishes. I
wentto market three times
aweek a d
rarely sold less than five.,, d
high as fifteen dollars a morning. I
never knew what was going to pay _best,
for some years there would he a special
demand for one ,thing and thea for an-
other. But in the fang run I always
made it pay, although some individual
crops w'buld fail, or there would be no
market for there. • I usually found p
