Pack Smaller the Country Over.

The |-carry-over' tomatoes in the
United States for 1907 amounted to D.
000, 600 cases, and it is estimated that
the total pack for the country will be
something like 100000 cases less this
year. as compared with the previous
year The total pack in the United
States last year amounted to 13,000, 900
cases. OF this amount $4,000 cases
were sent out from the Utah factories.
The Salt Lake herald. [volume] (Salt Lake City [Utah]) 1870-1909, 1908-12-27

The Dominion of Canada produced 525,-
900 eases of tomatoes in 1907.
In many states of the Union the rails
ing of tomatoes is being rapidly aban-
dOned- This is especially true of Iowa
and Colorado, both of which have in the
past figured prominently in the tomato
raising sof the country. From 155.77e
cases in 1906, Iowa dropped TO 60,121
cases i'm 1907, and this year the output
Will be even less. Colorado produced
1O0,O75 cases in 1906, 60.107 in 1907, and
this year the output from that state
will be less than 10000 cases. The rea-
son for this is the uncertainty of the
tomato crops in those states In Utah
the tomato crop is mora certain than
anywhere else in the country. and the
climate is altogether favorable. The
cool nights prevent the tomatoes from
rpening all at once, and thus the crop
is harvested gradually. which prevents
overcrowding the canneries Where the
nights are warm the tomatoes all ripen
at about the same time, with the result
that the factories are swamped and
cannot put them mp fast enough to pre-
vent their spelling.
Utah's 1903 Tomato Output.
1t is estimated that the total pack of
tomatoes for the state of Utah this year
viii be 100000 cases of No. 21S More
than 800. 900 has been paid out in wages
and at least s125.O has been paid out
to the growers. The price per ton paid
to the growers was $9.th.s year, which
was 81 and 81 less per ton than was
paid in 1907. The price per ton in the
Baltimore district this year was Sc
and 81.
Taken all in all. the season just closed
was a profitable one for the Gamers of
the state. There was no scarcity of la
Dor, as there was the previous year, and
there was a reduction in the prices of
materials, such as cans, box material,
etc, of which there was an abundance
on the market. To offset this, however
the prices of canned goods are about
10 per cent less than they were prior to
the financial panic of 1907. The Utah
factories are now twenty-nine in num-
Der. nineteen of these being located in
Weber county. But one new factory
was added during the year. This was
at North Ogden. where a new plant
was built in time for the handling of
the seasons crop. The Utah factories
are strictly living up to the provisions
of the national pure food and drugs act
of July 30, 1906. and it is believed that
this will help the canning industry as
a whole.
Fruit Pack Is Larger.
While the tomato pack lis smaller
than in 1907. the fruit pack this year
exceeds that of any previous year. and
the indications are that next year Will
see a still further increase. One i'm
portant feature that is being urged
upon the people handling the fruit crop
is to raise the standard of the fruit

pack 1t is argued that this is one of
the most important features to enable
the Utah product to compete with the
California fruits.
In round numbers, the amount paid
out TO fruit growers this year is $780,
600, an increase of about $4,000 over the
previous year. New markets for Utah
fruit have been opened up in Iowa and
Oklahoma, while there has been an in
creased Chicago market. Nevada,
which prior to the San Francisco fire
depended wholly upon California for its
canned goods. is now one of the con-
slant markets of this state.
The pear crop in Utah was at
standstill during the past year of two,
but it is expected that next year will
see an increase in the output of this
fruit Pear blight played havoc with
the orchards, but new orchards have
been put out and these should COM
mence bearing next summer.
New Products Handled.
The amount of pumpkin .anned this
year was less than in 1907, but there
was an increase in the output of aspar-
aSuS, strawberries, cherries, apricots
and apples. Two new products-con-
densed tomato soup and Worcestershire
sauce-have been added to the list of
Utah products during the year. The
other products of this kind, such as
pork and beans, hominy, ETC., have been
in increased demand, and are being
manufactured in larger quantities.
For the 1908 Utah pack 1921, 200, or
III carloads. of cans and three carloads
of labels were required. Approximately

taken a short while longer permanent cure is
the result. In all cases where you have taken
Miraco four or Eve days, perfect rest at night

The Bubonic Plague.

The deadly Bubonic plague is

has spread throughout the world
tn such an extent that active
measures have been inaugurHted

into this country. Such ports as
New Orleans, Galveston aud other
seaport cities are closely inspect
ing every vessel that arrives from
infected districts. This plague is
the most deadly known and is
claiming its victims by the thous-
ands. In the Island of Behrein,
in the Persian sea. out of l7l2
cases only three survived. This
shows how fatal is this epidemic.

The Currency Problem.

Congress has been wrestling
with the currency problem, but
none of the measures proposed
seem to go to the heart of the
trouble. They are all designed
more for the relief of the Wall
street spectators than the
country at large. We do not
think that an emergency currency
will prevent or cure panic. On
the contrary such might compli-
cate the panic by creating a
demand for specie redemption.
PanIcs are usually brought about,
not by scarcity of money, but
by q want of confidence, or

money to drain the sunken lands

and drain the low lands there
abouts as it is to expend money
to reclaim arid lands of the West.
