The Friends That Are True.

Fer Il courage that's none too strong,
And the crash of the wheels and maze of the

If the piticss profit for which men strive
Has denied its share to volt
Why. get up and thank the Lord you're alive
And have some friends that are true.
Oh the world is wide and the world is dear,
And VIC have to worry it through.

AS the faith of the friends that are true.

Oh the world is wide and the world is grand,

One more false note in LIES song;
If the brain is steady; the heart all stout and

The tomato crop this year was. the larg-
est on record. according to statistics COM
piled by the American Grocer. The COM
parison is with respect to the canned
product, the trade in which has reached
enormous proportions. until now with an
estimated population of nearly $50. GOO
the United States consumes annually

Maryland is the greatest producer OF all
the States In 1900 Its factories output
aggregated almost exactly one-haH OF the
canned tomatoes produced in this coun-
try. The enormous product in 1902 Is ex-
planned by the general shortage for the
three years, 1sse-1901. which resulted In a
general exhaustion Of stocks. This IN
turn forced an early pack, which went
into consumption as fast as it was avail
able until late in August or early IN Sep
tember. Climatic conditions were irreg-
ular. and In some sections, notably New
York, such as to cause almost total
crop failure. Mild weather In the fall
harvest so prolonged the packing season
that, in spite Of all drawbacks, tho out
put was beyond anual requirements
From Maryland reports come that the
stocks cost from 81 to so a ton. One fac
tory in Indiana packed only $4,000 cases
from 80 acres which was considered a
half-crop In the New York market can
ned tomatoes range in price from 70 cents
to 81 Is case OF twenty-four tins.

the first stakes were being driven. they

EFFECT OF COAL FAMINE
IN THE VIRGINIAS.
Few Towns Supplied with Anthrn-
cite and in Many There is Short
ngc of All Kinds of Fuel.

BALTIMORE, MD, January 1.-The eff
feet of the coal famine on the four mill
lions Of people of Maryland, the Dis
trict of Columbia, Virginia, and West
Virginia, is told in dispatches to to-
morrow's Herald. Few towns are sup
piled with anthracite, and in many there
is d shortage of all kinds of fuel. In
the smaller towns the residents substi-
tute wood for coal. but in the larger
ones this has not been possible. In some
entire counties nothing but wood is used.
some points near the coal fields, such
as Roanoke coal is higher than at points
more distant from the mines. In West
Virginia, owing to the wide distribution
Of coal-producing areas, there is not likely
to be much distress. Although the in
dustries are suffering. Washington and
Baltimore are getting along with soft-coal
at advanced prices, but Washington is
not better off Ian many of the smaller
towns. The commerce of both Baltimore
and Norfolk is suffering because of the
shortage.
