The Atlanta Journal gives the follow ing statistics of the canning industry: '"The total output of canned goods in this country for 1893 was 4,3O9, ,443 cases, and only five southern states contributed to it. These states were North Carolina, South Carolina, Georgia, Alabama and Mississippi. The output of canned goods in these five states was only 195OO cases, a pitifully small part of the total for the country The home consumption of canned goods in 1893 was 3,SO0,OOO cases, and the value of the canned goods ex- ported was $11,049,245 While the indus try has grown largely since 1893, the south probably has not made propor- tionate increase in the number and ex- tent of its canneries."
