CAPE MAY COUNTY TIMES
r Times mem of the agricultural re-
sources of the count). It is not a good plan to place all of one’s
bf the eggs in a single basket, no matAXD ter how strong that basket may IPAKT be. Cape May County is rich
in agricultural potentialities. The same wonderful climate which nukes our coast resorts so inviting is also one of our agricultural resources. Our soil is a kindly one. especially for trucking crops,
1 being light, easily cultivated ami
yielding readily to proper fertilization. Our markets are unsurpassed, an objective of the first consideration in sfccctsstul farming. The coast resorts furnish a medium for the disposal of a very large part of the products of our acres at the very best prices, freights and conmussiom being saved, and the big city markets cl^.. at hand will absorb the balance, and with the growth of the resorts the home demand
will increase.
There is nu«v in our count)’ every incentive to make rural life pleasant and inviting. There is
longer such a thing as isola|be sorriest spots about Jtion. With an ever increasing Citv in the past has network of good roads, with the P*Me) Avenue and the auto, rural mail delivery, the

The Freeholders have pointed’ out the way by which the money for this war of extermination can be secured and the question is now up to the fieoplc to push

To do this work and do it quickly the money will ksve to be raised by a bond issue and this can only be authorized by a vote of the people of the count). Do the voters- want such a bond issue?
