Peninsula Canned Goods Association
Hold sslni-Annua1 Meeting
Here and Discuss Crops.

Manufacturers from all par.s Of oae
state assembled here Thursday al 5he
annual meeting of THE Peninsula Can
ned Goods Association, which includes
all the manufacturers of canned goods
and has not THE earm'arks l1f a trust.
President Henry p Cannon of Bridge
willie, and Secretary c. NJ. Dashiell of
Princess Anne, Md, were present and
the entire association took dinner at
the Hotel Richardson.
From reports received from all over
the Peninsula it was announced that
there was a falling off in the tomato
industry, which was so extensive last
season that the growers became dis
couraged. Instead of 1880 acres
planted on Ahs Peninsula in 1899, the
acreage lof to-day will not exceed 5000
acres. Then there will be only an
eighty per cent crop. On this account,
and although the tomatoes now about
to be packed will keep the Gamers
busy for weeks, 1T is believed that
cannlers will engage e%teNnsively in
conserving peaches.
The Pennsylvania Railroad Com
pany," said one of the manufacturers,
will not carry all the 100000 baskets
of peaches they have estimated for this
Peninsula, ait least in their raw state.
They may carry them after we are
Through with them" lit is Thought
that the Gamers intend to lay how for
a glut in the city markets, when they
will open their canneries to the peach
crop and get advantage of the low
prices for fine fruit for canning There
are 100000 cases of tomatoes already
packed in the various Peninsula cam
neries.
