were east of the Mississippi, But now
nearly one-half of the entire Ameri-

attention to the apparent lack of ap-
probation among the trade, ofthe extent
to which the demand had steadily and
unlnterruptedly drawn upon the stocks.
For the next month and a half the
market is in the packers hands, for which
the reduced acreage for 1901, and present
backward condition OF the vines, will
still further tend in his favor.
What, in our Judgment, is the most
pertinent and significant feature of the
market, is the fact that all former ideas
as to the country's consumptive ability
OF tomatoes will have to be revised, and
consideration of the market for the future
given to the fact that in two years it has
taken care of thirteen and one-quarter
million cases, since there is every likeli-
hood that the carry-over ofpresent stocks
into the season of 19O1-19O2 will amount
to little.
1t would seem to us that the new basis
of consumption must for the future enter
more and more as factor, and come to
be regarded accordingly

THE CANNED GOODS OUTLOOK.

The Strasbaugh, Steckel, Hewitt Com
pany, canned goods brokers, have issued
circular regarding the outlook of the
tomato market. This is worthy of
perusal by all those interested, for it
should be remembered that Harford's
output of canned goods is an important
factor in controlling the market. They
say in the circular:
Whatever comment may be drawn
from the development ofthe Spot Tomato
market of the week, and the trend of
quotations for the immediate future, there
cannot fail to be more attention given to
tomatoes from now out than has been
given to them for some time.
The increased acreage of1S99 and 1900
naturally carried with it a larger output
than for any two years previous-a total
estimated at thirteen and one-quarter
million cases. Naturally enough, the
market was regarded with considerable
apathy among buyers, to whom the in.
creased cost to pack for 1 900 represented
little as against the heavy carry-over OF
1899 into 1900. so that the shrinkage of
the first three months of 1901, while
showing a positive loss to the packer,
was logical sequence of the combined
output of the two years previous.
| To any one conversant with the
markets position, it became apparent at
the opening of the year that the steady
and persistent demand from purely legiti-
mate sources from November 1900 up to
April LIST 1901, must of necessity bring
about closer adjustment between supply
and demand, and, if continued, of which
there was then every indication, must
lead to changed position of supplies,
eventually throwing the market more
and more into sellers favor.
This became more distinctly outlined
during the early part ofApril, when good

of the April movements fell into the hands
ofweaker holders, thus strengthing stocks
in stronger hands. Since the heavy buy,
ing of April, there was not, up to the first
of July. any other than the same steady
and persistent movement into regular
distributive channels, which marked the
first three months of the year, with, how.
ever, this difference-that holdings were
on surer ground and less sensitive. On
this point, holders for the first three
months have shown better appreciation
of their position than the jobber.
