Marketing Carolina Vegetables |
By Guy A. Cardwell
Growers should keep in mind
that vegetables grown in the
Carolinas meet with severe
competition in the larger mar
kets of the country; and that
even though the produce is sold
for cash by the grower on auc
tion markets at shipping points,
or to local assemblers, this does
not relieve the grower of the
burdens placed upon him by
this competition.
It is competition and supply
and demand that largely govern
in fixing the price that growers
receive; therefore, it is up to
the grower do to his job to best
advantage, in order that he
may be able to increase his
profit.
There are several ways m
which profits on truck crops
may be increased.
1. The soil must be warm,
well drained, and filled with
organic matter—humus. Poor
soil will not produce heavy
yields of good quality produce.
2. Use good seed of popular
varieties.
3. Fertilize heavily, but not
wastefully, and cultivate so as
to produce both quantity and
quality vegetables.
4. Harvest at the proper time
when the commodity is in prime
condition.
5. Grade closely and size at
tractively. The local buyer,
the merchant in the market-,
and the housewife, all buy ac
cording to the reflex action of
the eye.
Field grading may be all
right if skillfully done, but it
is not usually well done. It- is,
therefore, in the interest of top
prices that the grower is af
ter for most commodities to be
graded at the packing shed and
washed, if the commodity needs
to be washed, and packed in
standard containers — in the
best looking containers that the
grower can afford to use.
Sloopy looking packages
sharply lessen the value of
good produce, while good look
ing containers often enhance
the price paid for inferior pro
duce. But do not count too
heavily on this method to in
crease profits, for buyers do.
not have to be fooled many
times before they fix the level
of prices paid for the produce
where it will protect them in
buying and selling.
A reputation of quality pro
duce, careful grading, and a
good looking package is worth
real money to the grower, of
truck crops. Do not ever for
get this and that your produce
must meet competition no mat
ter where or how sold.

IN MEMORIAM
For my grandfather, who left
this world for another on God’s
Day, March 21, 1937.
What a day he chose to leave
us,
When wind had brushed the
storms away,
When day hidden ’neath the
clouds.
The moon was well upon his
way.
Stars had gathered, lit- the
path;
One hung still above the gate.
God had called and angels
came
To take him softly to that gate.
Death tapped once and let him
be,
Rapped once on his window’s
pane;
Whistled faintly and His help
ers
Bore him gently up the lane.
He must have been there just
in time
To see the Father and the dawn,
And he saw Christ bend low in
secret,
Pantomine Easter on the lawn.
I didn’t see the white-clad an
gels;
Yet I know that they were

there;
Nor did I see the clouds un
fold;
But I know he went.through
there.
Left us memory of his presence,
And the smile up his face
That he wore so much in liv

And in passing from this place.
We will keep it, good Grand
daddy,
Keep it gladly while we live,
Pass it on to other persons,
For this, "In Memoriam”, now
