In the comments to this post, editor Allison Joseph points out an error in the Crab Orchard Review listing in the 2008 Poet's Market:
Hi Nancy: Thanks for listing Crab Orchard Review in Poet's Market 2008. Unfortunately, there's a mistake in our entry. We pay $20 per page for poetry, $50 mininum. (It says $100 minimum in our entry). We wish we could pay poets $100 per poem, but we'd soon be out of business! Thanks, Allison Joseph Editor & Poetry Editor

Thanks for the correction, Allison! The "$100 minimum" should have jumped out at me. Maybe, subconsciously, it was wishful thinking??? (Although $20 per page certainly isn't to be scoffed at.)
See Crab Orchard's website for current guidelines.
