THE CANNING CENTER
 Is AT CHICAGO
Description of the Growth and Geo. graphical Shifting of the Industry.

The canning industry, which was naturally established in the east, is as naturally moving westward, keeping along with the center of population. The business is moreover growing to meet a constantly increasing demand which is growing faster than the popu- lation. The Chicago Journal of April 24 contained the following interesting article on the subject:
 Following the shifting of the center of population and money supply from the east to the west, the canning indus try, which each year preserves and dis tributes throughout the world millions of cans of vegetables and fruits, has broken away from a strong casters centralization and settie0 in the states easily accessible to Chicago. Within the last five years a new complexion has been given the packing business, and, to keep up with the industrial evO- lution, eastern packers have been forced to move westward or see their trade go into other hands.
 Chicago has come to the fore as the distributing point of the country.
 Great grocery jobbing concerns in this city, which do millions of dollars worth of business a year, find that from 25 to 33 per cent of their trade is in canned goods.
 Especially in the production of canned peas, corn and tomatoes has there been big change in the standing
 or the states. New York, Maryland New Jersey, Delaware, and other east ern states have seen their business de crease and come to Indiana, Wisconsin Ohio, Illinois, Iowa, Nebraska, and other western states. Indiana especial ly has come to the front in recent years. With Wisconsin, Indiana has
 taken a great portion of the canned pea production from Maryland and New York.
 Indiana, Illinois and Iowa now lead the list in the production of canned corn, but in the production of canned tomatoes, Indiana. among the western states, has had a most notable rise. Maryland, Delaware and New Jersey are losing their tomato output and In
 diana is gaining almost Tn proportion although Ohio is sharing the benefit Illinois prairie land has been found poor for the production of tomatoes IT ! commercial quantities, but the cleared forest land Of Indiana has proved | especially fitted to their culture. Con- sequently tomato canning plants have | grown up like mushrooms in the Indi- ana belt.
 New York and other eastern men in l terested in the industry have. made l searching inquiry into the conditions which are bringing to the west whai | promises to develop in a few years into one of it's richest assets. First of all they have discovered that rich western land is more suited to the production of tomatoes than worn lands of east
 ern states, which require great expend- | iture for fertilizer. Added to this
 western farmers have been educated
 to the point where they are willing tC | give up part of their large field crops

It will be pleasing tO the public Go know that one more step has been taken in the direction of the acquire ment by the government of the Arl- zona canal irrigation system Not that there has ever been any doubt about the transaction. but it is always nor encouraging to know that progress ,s being made.

HUSBAND AND WIFE
 DIED TOGETHER
Fir. and Mrs. Herman C. Wagner Late
 Residents of Phoenix.

Word was received in the city yes terday of the tragic death at Chicago on April 23 of MT. and Mrs. Herman C. Wagner. who spent the winter in Phoenix, MT. Wagner being employed at H. A. Diehrs as a salesman. The death Of MT. Wagner was by suicide but it will never be known whether that of his wife was of her own will.
 They were living at the home of Mrs Wagner's parents at 6S2 OsgoOd street in a most respectable neighborhood. The house was a very large one and in addition to the family of Mrs. Wag- ner's parents another married daugh- ter and her husband had apartments in it. ses
 The sisters were accustomed to as- semble every morning with the other members of the family, and when Mrs Wagner did not come down stairs on this particular morning her sister went to her room, which she found locked. This was an unusual circumstance. and the sister being unable to receive a re-

for the more careful growing of toma- toes, which bring. greater returns.
 Then, too, freight rates have had their effect. For a. long time eastern canners labored under strained condi- tions. The center of demand for their goods kept going gradually westward. necessitating the payments of long haul tariffs. Factories are now read justing themselves to conditions of population and avoid high freight rates by abandoning eastern plants and re building in western locations.
 Several hundred new plants have grown up in the west in the last few years. During the packing season of 1905 alone eight factories in Delaware, nlnety-five in Maryland and several more in New York, which operated in 1904 closed their doors and did no packing. When the next season for packing begins in the latter part Of August or September, it is thought by western packers that several more eastern plants will have located in the west.
 According to figures compiled by New York experts, the taste of Amer ican people for the acetic qualities of the tomato has increased to propor- tlons never measured for it. Indeed, the appetite of the country for the juicy red vegetable has grown so large that there is doubt if the supply now in the market will hold out until a new pack is made late in the summer.
 During 1902, 1903. and 1904 there was an average annual pack of 231,9 FPS cans of tomatoes, but during 1905, be- cause of bad weather conditions and a shortage Of the crop, the pack was only IA GOO GOO cans or 93, GOO, 600 cans below the average.
 Following is a table showing the total pack of the present year, in com parison with the output of the nine previous years:

 During the Spanish-American war the national government learned through the medical men in the army service the peculiar medicinal qualities of the tomato which caused soldiers to prefer it over other canned vegetable Since that time the commIssary de- partment has been supplying large quantities than ever before to army posts and the government has become one of the largest purchasers in the market. Several carloads are distrih- It ed to soldiers near Chicago monthly.

 Both MT. and Mrs. Wagner were dead of asphyxiation. The keyhole of the door and the cracks of all windows and doors were found to have been stuffed with clothes and the gas was turned on-
 A small revolver was found on a stand and a note in the handwriting of MT. Wagner was attached to it. IL stated that the writer had intended to use the revolver but had beer unable to do so, meaning that he had not the nerve for that form of death.
 At the undertaker's it was found that the right arm Of Mrs. Wagner had been broken in two places from which it is surmised that she made fight for life. The funeral took place on April 26.
 MT. and Mrs. Wagner came to Phoe- nix late last September and took a resi- dence at 13 East Lincoln street. Neither was in robust health. yet neither was an invalid. MT. Wagner had been em- ployed for several years in a Chicagc wholesale shoe house. He had worked there so long that he felt worn out and believed that a change of climate would do him good.
 He never complained of feeling bad while he was here, but on the contrary was generally cheerful. He finally de- cided to return to Chicago and about month ago he and his wife left for their former home.
 MT. Wagner was 37 years of age. His wife was 29. They had been married ten years.

When the almost inestimable quantity of tomatoes pre- served by the American housewife IS considered, in addition, the grand totaI of preserved tomatoes runs beyond all calculation.
 Each year the consumption is in- creasing and each year hereafter the west instead of east, will furnish the greater portion of the countrys meals of canned tomatoes.
 Eastern experts who are appreheu- sive about the supply have estimated from the consumption in the last three y ears that the average American fam fly uses fifteen cans of tomatoes a year. This year the scaling off of the supply has reduced the possible ap- portionment to nine and one-half cans 2 family.
