SCHOONER CAREY
HAS HARD LUCK.

The schooner James M. Carey, with
Captain Charles Mason in command
arrived at Milford last Monday from
Little Egg HarbOr, New Jersey, after
having been eleven weeks making the
round trip from here to that point.
Just as he left Egg HarbOr a storm
caught the schooner and destroyed her
sails. She was towed to New York by
a steamer that picked her up helpless,
and there new sails were fitted. The
crew deserted him at New York. The
captain started from there for Milford,
but it was found that the vessels bottom
was so foul that she would not sail, so
she pat back and was put in dry dock
and cleaned. The schooner left for Mil.
ton, her home port, this week.

Early Tomatoes and CanteIoupes.

Those who raised canteloupes and
had them early have done well with
them this year but the later patches
have hit it wrong, as the markets are
glutted and the prices hardly paid the
cost Of shipping during the last of the
week. Jehn Hallett. near Milford, had
a profit Of more than 800 per acre from
early eantelOupes, and several others
did as well.
Early tomatoes have been very low
priced, and it is doubtful if the growers
get paid for their expense and work Of
growing the crop. Last Friday the
Philadelphia market was so glutted
with early tomatoes that the Baltimore
Gamers bought many carloads and
them to that city to put into
cans.

The Grier Cannery To Operate.

North Milford, and will pack tomatoes
there this season. They commenced
contracting for tomatoes last Saturday
which were set out for the general mar
ket and are paying 1l3 cents per basket,
which is equivalent to $500 per ton.
The acreage Of tomatoes is much smaller
this season all over the Peninsula, and
the unfavorable weather would indicate
that the yield will be shorter than usual.
The railroad will not shelve cars so that
tomatoes can be shipped to Baltimore
80 the packers Of that city are looking
up idle 0anneries to lease.
