Md, has just about doubled during the
past ten years, and it is the blushing

county are now moving to Philadelphia,
New York and Boston by trainloads.
And not only so but millions of cans of
this fruit will be put up in the canneries
of the county. The Armours, Of Chicago,
have established six-acre plant at
Ridgely, which, during the present
strawberry season, will employ 1000
people. In addition, there are FIVE or six
other canneries in the town which employ
each from so to 900 people. There are
strawberry farmers in the county who
will net from $1,000 to $4,000 from their
