The Beginning Of Manura.,.res In

The Beginning of Manufac,.res In
Charles County.-We UNDERSTAND. Joint
stock company has been formed far ,be pur-
pose ofcanning corn, fruits vegetables aud
oysters at La Plata, in this county Enough
sto k has already been taken to insure the be-
ginning OF the enterprise.
An agent was sent up to Hartford comfy
this winter for the express purpose of exanin-
ing the canning factories in that county, and
his report has been very favorable. There are
in Hartford now between 300 and 400 Of these
factories, aud the business there HIS been an
eminent success.
There are two plans either IF which may
be adopted, one plan is for a factory to be
started, and the vegetables raised by private
individuals The other for jont stock
c ,mpauy to be formed, so that each stock
h older can raise and furnish part Of the veg
rt,hles ard corn. 1t has been determined to
adopt the latter, because it " i'll enable all the
farmers in the neighhorhood to r,i,e and sell
something TO The cannery. The fctory will
pay "A fixed price for Tomatoes aud corn, de-
vercd at the f.ctory, whether raised by the
ocNhollers or others.
1t has been tried IN Prince Georges also
with cutire success The low price. Of tooac-
co necessities = trial Of som, new industry
among us, and it is believed that cAnuerr
offers about the fdrcst chance of success By
each one our nrighboring farmers investing a
moderate amount, he can get what he h IS
never had before, home market for corn and
vegetables. This will he the great advantage
t to the neighborhood, and to the stockhold ers,
{ although it is believed the stock will pay a
fair dividend. Attention is called to the ad-
; yertisement Of the agent IN this paper. II is
E to be hoped that our farmers will give all the
i aid possible to this enterprise Concert of
= action is what onF farmers want, and what
n they are too apt to be deficient H.
e Fan sighted men have long seen that this
: peninsular, owing to its proximity to the
: large cities, must become good producing
country The day for reiidnc, on tobacco with
US is thing of the past The county is
adapted to fruits aud vegetables. The can
ming business is not overdone, all Europe is
our customer in canned goods and the great
West has not vet gone into the business to
any extent and we do not see why thi. coun-
ty should not succeed better than Hartford,
: where it is estimated that million Of dollars
year has been brought into the county By
this industry.
