Anne Arundel vs.. Howard County To-
mattoes,
The Ellicott City correspondent of the
Sun, referring to the tomato Industry in
that county, says The tomato-raising
area has been up to the present mainly In
the sixth and first districts. The supply
from this area and from over in Anne
Arundel has been such as to glut the
packing-houses at Jessup's, on the Wash
| ington Branch of the B. and o., and at
Laurel. The combined capacity of these
establishments is over 1000 bushels per
dav. and existing conditions have never
been known before. There has been
much loss through lack of adequate
facilities. A daily spectacle at Jessups
| has been hundred or two wagons or all
descriptions waiting from one day 10
another to be uuloaded. Demand Tor nVe
or six thousand bushels daily would
about meet the supply. II Is needless 10
state that another year VIII bring every
| facility to meet the rather unexpected
| turn of many farmers who have more OF
| less abandoned raising cereals for this
| form of trucking. There is some feeling
| In Anne Arundel against Howard coun-
tians because of the preference given the
| Howard county tomato. 1t Is said to De
superior Anne Arundel truckers say II
their land admitted of anything else than
/ trucking they would not confine them
selves to this, and farmers in Howard,
with other agricultural opportunities, 10
4 becoming competitors depress the market
and iniure all parties. But Howard
doesn't seem disposed to heed Anne
Arundel. although prices are now Tar De-
low the least known In past years. AS
little as Ave cents bushel has been paid,
| although fifteen has perhaps been the
average. Twenty Is low-wster marx TOT
| mast wears. Some few crops are being de-
| iivered on last years contracts at twenty
| five.
You are in a Bad FIX.
