Additional Details:
$400 an Acre Profit on Cabbage - Nine acres of cabbage planted in December by George Federolf, near Brownsville, in the Gulf Coast Country. Sold in March for $4,000. Mr Federolf states that it cost him only $400 to grow the crop and load it on cars. The net profit above all expense was $3,600 - and the same land was available for two other profitable crops during the year. The same opportunity is waiting for you. Why not go and see for yourself?
