TOMATO RAISING PROFITABLE.
Hundreds of Acres Under Cultivation
in Delaware County.

Special to the Indianapolis Journal.
MUNCIE, Ind, Oct. 4.-The two tomato
packing factories in Muncie are now in full
operation and for the next few weeks the
plants will each consume 100000 pounds of
tomatoes per day. To obtain this supply the
factories have buying depots in all the sur
rounding towns. Farmers around Muncie
have found the tomato raising industry very
profitable. Hundreds of acres of tomatoes
are now raised yearly in Delaware county.
Even with the increased product from the
farmers the companies have found it neces-
sary TO lease land and raise part of their
supply in that way.
William A. Sampson, president OF the
Magic Packing Company, said to-day that
the tomato crop is unusually good this year.
The warm weather has aided the tomatoes
in maturing and they are coming on rapid
ly. The crop is not only great in quantity,
but is better than for several years in quail
ity. The Muncie companies are finding
much difficulty in getting enough hands to
take care of the crop.

This letter will serve as bitter rebuke
to certain reports which have gained
ground in this country and elsewhere that
the cardinal and certain bishops of France
as well as all the secular clergy seemed
quietly pleased that the religious orders are
being expelled and are far from being sorry
for the prevailing persecution. The Amer
