The Tomato Crop snort.

Owing to the slump in the tomato crop
throughout the country this season, it is
predicted by number of prominent
merchants and brokers. that within the
next three or four weeks, the canned to
mato, which is selling for 80 cents
per dozen cans, will have reached, if not
passe the dollar mark. There is only one
half the crop that there was last year, and
as result the big canneries throughout
Ne Jersey, Delaware and Maryland are
Tefl sing to place this com modify on the
n .rket.
Spectators aud the leading wholesale
houses in Philadelphia are experiencing
the greatest anxiety over this condition
of the market, as it is impossible for taem
to have their orders flied. In the early
part Of the month canned tomatoes were
selling for 57a cents per dozen cans,
which is two and half cents less than
cost. Since then, the price has steadily
advanced.
10 speaking about the market Thomas
Msrtindsle, of Philadelphia, said: "The
present condition of the growing crop of
tomatoes has been brought about by the
frequent and incessant rains during the
early and middle portion of July, followed
by the heat of blazing sun. Thus the
water in the hollows became heated. and
the tomatoes lyingin.it vera greatly affect
ed. Packers, iof course, suffered consider
able loss on the commodity itself, it
being necessary to trim or cut away
perhaps the best portion. In addition to
this the heavy rain fall made the growth
of the plant run to vine rather than to
fruit, so that there was luxurious
growth of vine with little setting of fruit,
with which to reward the planter. 1t is
said that some fields of tomatoes will
rot produce ton to the acre and great
many tomatoes have been ordered for the
canneries tat So ton. 1t doesn't take
much figuring to see what serious
matter it is to the grower and also to
the Gamer who may not be able to fill
his contracts made in the early part of
the season.
sit is reported" continued Mr.. Mar
tindale, shat three oanneries in Balti-
more sold no less than 500, 900 cases of 2
dozen, 3-pound cans each at 55 cents.
Today, these parties are offering 70 cents
net cash for anything that will come up
to the requirements of their contracts
and are willing to take them without
labels
"The packers, however, refuse to sell,
and IN consequences Ghey nave oeen apie
to make but few purchases. The proba
biity is that the packing season will be a
remarkably short one, and will end SO
suddenly as to send prices above the
dollar mark. AS to tomatoes in gallon
cans, it may be safely assumed that the
price will advance in greater portion
than on 3-pound cans. This is due to the
fact that gallons are rarely packed until
after the contracts in 'shrees' are filled.
Therefore, if the Gamer is short in his s.
pound contracts he will be short in his
gallons Also"

How oft he would cast his longing eyes
Up to his loving wife,
Who stood with willing hands.
And waited on him day and night
How Oft he would look to his children,
And think how soon we must part,
But Christ. the Great Reliever, came
And soothed that troubled heart.
And now he rests from toll and pain,
No aching heart, or trou bled brain
Will ever disturb that heart.

To Prevent Potaro Rot.

Profe ,sor Byron D. Halsted, of the
New Jersey College Experiment Farm,
has issued bulletin to farmers dealing
y 18th the potato rot, which has appeared
in several sections of the State.
He recommends that as soon as the
vines begin to die they be pulled up and
taken to proper places away from the
field and there burned. The rot starts at
the top of the vine just as it begins to
decay, and passes down through the vine
to the tubers. Once the vine commences
to die the tubers cease to grow, so there
is no loss by digging at once. Burning
the vines at once destroys the germs of
the rot. Professor Halsted also advises
that when the tubers are dug they be
allowed to dry thoroughly. Tntn none
but absolutely dry ones should be stored
Any showing signs of decay should BIZ
destroyed by fire. Those stored should
be kept in a dry, cool place, where there
is free circulation of air. In addition
to this there should be scattered over the
potatoes a handful or so of well sir
slaked lime to each bushel. This should
be thrown on as the potatoes are emptied
into the bin, SO that the lime will be in
all parts. The lime will kill any germs
of the rot which may adhere to the pota
toes. If these regulations are followed
it is not thought the loss will be great,
and the disease will be killed before next
season.
