The Donaldsonville Truck Growers' Association is making regular weekly express shipments of choice vegetables to' Chicago, Cincinnati and other northern markets, and is obtaining very fair results from the consignments. The -excellent price of $14 a barrel for parsley, $8 a barrel for spinach and $6 a barrel for shallots was realized from a shipment of these vegetables which reached Chicago Jan. 9, just after the recent severe cold snap. The members of the association who have participated in the shipments of the past several weeks have netted to date something like $400. Later on, when the farmers become more experienced in packing their produce and the shipments are mfade in larger quantities, or by freight in carload lots, the returns will be very materially increased and the truck growing industry will become an important and profitable adjunct to the community's varied commercial resources.
