Show Cabbage Growers Sell 15 Carloads To U.S. Agency The last of 15 cars of cabbage purchased pur-chased in American Fork by the Surplus Commodities Corporation went out Saturday, according to James H. Tattersall, chairman of the Utah county committee which arranged the deal. Growers received $8.50 a- ton for their cabbage, but were required to pay for the sacking and inspection. American Fork's place as a truck gardening center is shown by the fact that of the allotment of 20 cars of cabbage to be purchased in the state, 15 were from here. Eight cars were loaded out of the Wing station and seven at the Salt Lake & Utah railroad. The committee in charge of the cabbage deal in Utah county included, in-cluded, Mr. Tattersall, chairman; Ross Buckwalter, secretary; and Hans Christensen and George Bingham, Bing-ham, all of American Fork; and Fred Peterson of Lehi. |
