PROHIBITION is INDIRECT
BOOM FOR STRAWBERRIES
Cannery Company Drops Into Berry
District and Harvests Fruit for
Ice Cream and Soft Drinks.

PHILADELPHIA, July 26.-Prohi-
bition Indirectly produced an extra
ordinary condition in the strawberry
market this year.
Prices went higher than ever be-
fore because a Chicago packing house
opened what was said to be the larg-
est fruit preserving plant in the world
in the heart of the strawberry dis
trict of Delaware and the eastern
shore of Maryland and bought the
product of great berry-producing
fields virtually without regard to cost
10 meet the tremendous demand for
ice cream and soft drinks produced
by the dry period.
Straw berries that normally sold for
from cents to 10 cents a quart were
snapped up at from 80 cents to 81
cents. The price to the consume r
never went below 80 cents this sea-
son. Strawberry strip for fiavoring
soda water. formerly sold at IS cents
r gallon. is now quoted $3.50 gallon
Farmers are elated. Many of them
made an average of 900 an acre on
their strawberry crop and they are
looking forward to big profits next
year. The packers. when the straw
berry season was over, sent their en-
ployes TO other work and closed the
factory.

Outstanding Market Feature.

There was time when a trip
across the American continent was
considered a long and hazardous jour-
ney, but the day will soon come when
New York and San Francisco will
seem like next door neighbors, for
the airship is quickly annihilating
distance. just as the telephone and
telegraph have done. AS a result of
these various fundamental conditions
the present marked trend toward the
growth of hotels sof all types will
continue to be one of the outstanding
