Sued for Selling Canned TOmatoea

The tomatoes mentioned below, in AN arti.
Gle from the Retail Grocers Aduocate, were
packed by Mr.. VIM. I. Slade, who lives near
the Hickory, Hartford county. Mr.. Slade is
known as one our most careful packers, and
the assumption that the family named were
poisoned by the tomatoes simply preposter-
Gus. Every one familiar with the packing
business knows that 1t would be almost
impossible, except it were done intentionally
I to- get enough acid in can of tomotoes to
make them poisonous. Mr.. Shades testi-
mony has been taken and it shows tina, he used
not more than two bottles of acid in pack
ing 1000 cases, 80 that the amount used 10
each can was too small TO be detected by apy.
thing but chemical analysis. If the toma.
toes MIR. Sade packed were made unwhole.
some by an excess of acid then it is unsafe
to eat any tomatoes sealed by the use of acid.
Messrs. Thurber, Whyland & Co. could
have compromised this suit, it is understood,
but they declined to do it, deemng it reflec-
ton upon Hartford county Gamers and an
injury to the entire packing interests of the
d, country. They deserve the thanks of the
packers of Hartford as well as of the canned
goods trade generally for their manly stand
their behalf:
SIN March last family In Brooklyn named
Kolyer we're taken ill., and attributed 1t to eat

ner of Park and Clermont avenues, BROOKLYN
Ahrens bought the tomatoes from Thurber,
Whyland q Co., of New York, and Thurber,
Il Whyland q Co., bought them from packer in
Maryand.s The case was placed in the hands of
firm Of lawyers, who doubsless thought they
could make good spec out of IL, and, Whyland
q Co., although not In any way in fault, in
order to protect their customer, assumed the
responsibility of the defence. Suit was there
fore brought against Thurber, Whyland 81 Co.,
the plaintiff claiming nominal damages of $50 :
COO. We learn this fact has been used to dis
credit the quality Of canned goods sold by this
1ieminent firm, and grocers owe II to themselves
and Messrs. Thurber, Whyland Il Co., to coun-
n teraet this impression wherever 10 comes under
h their notice. 1t is we'll known that goods of
+ their manufacture are the very best, and the
manly stand they have taken in the present case
to protect the retail grocer entities them to the
- best thanks of the trade. As regards the pre-
= sent case under consideration, we are assured
that If the case ever comes to a trial ample
evidence will be adduced showing that the
. tomatoes In question were of good quality and
the sickness of the family in question was attri-
butable to other causes, although 80 far as the
reputation Of Messrs. Thurber, Whyland IL Co.'S

GRAssHoPPERs.-A field of seed clover, on
Mr.. John Moores' farm, near Bel Air, has been
entirely destroyed by young grasshoppers,
clouds of which fly up when disturbed. Since
destroying the clover they have commenced on
the corn on the edge of an adjoining field, be-
longing to DR.. X. d. Lee, where they are eating
the blades and the ends of the ears. The clover
field referred to was destroyed the same way
last year, but this year the pests have largely in
creased in numbers. Can any of the readers O.
The Agis tell their brotherfarmers whether or moi
these grasshoppers are likely TO injure the corn
seriously, and suggest some method of extermi
mating themg Perhaps If good quick lime, in Q
powdered state, were sown thickly over the
clover, after cutting, it might, in shaking, des
troy the eggs. We should be glad to hear from
farmers on this subject. The grasshoppers may
spread and become as destructive post as tht
potato bugs were or as the same insect is il
some of the Western States. II it is possible thi
should be prevented.
