Roadside Markets Give Most Profits 
Each year the popularity of the Roadside Market is increas¬ 
ing-. Folks from town like to drive out and buy freshly picked 
fruits and vegetables and will pay good prices for high quality 
products. This method of marketing brings the grower more 
money for his product and at the same time gives his children, 
who often have complete charge of the stand, business experi¬ 
ence, and teaches them the art of selling which enters into any 
business or profession they may later enter. 
“Roadside Markets’’ says R. P. Atherton in Rural New 
Yorker “not only give extra cash to the farmer but teach his 
children the value of money and gives them needed responsi¬ 
bility.” 
Growing Cultivated Crops (such as gardens, corn, potatoes, soy beans, cow peas, etc.) between 
ihe tree rows assures good cultivation which is a benefit to the young trees. Crops should 
not be planted closer than five feet on each side of the tree the first season , leave wider space 
as the trees grou \ Do not cultivate trees after August 1, on account of danger of encourag¬ 
ing late sappy growth which is liable to be injured by early freezes.
