The Canning Industry.

Croakers who think that the Maine
corn packing industry is overdone will
do well to remember that last August
there was out of our heavy pack hardly
case left in first hands, and now in the
early part of May, out of an increased
pack in 1892, say about 100000 cases,
probably there are not over three or four
thousand left unsold. despite the fact
that Maine goods command much higher
prices that others. 1t is just as well to
add that there is not case of Holsters
left unsold in first hands, case Of mack
erel, and probably not over hundred
cases>of succotash.
