LETTER TO EDITOR
No Price Named For Tomatoes Owing
TO Conditions That Confront Packer

IA Conditions That Confront Packer
and Grower.
To the Editor of the ETening Cdpifdf:
Will you kindly extend the courtesy
10 publish this letter.
The Parole Farmers COOPERATIVE
Association have instructed me to cor
rect a statement made in your paper
February 21st, in regard to a meeting
held i'm Edwards Hall, Parole. Thurs
day. February 18th. Quoting from
the article in question, you stated in
one paragraphs:
.pFhe tomato crop came up for dis
cussion and the price of tomatoes per
bushel was fixed for next season at
eighty cents instead of seventy-fiye
cents. as last year The increase is
said TO be due TO the scarcity OF labor
and its high cost, and other conditions
that pervail, making the cost OF liv-
ing higher TO the farmer as TO every
boGy else"
The meeting in question was held
under the auspices OF the Home Ex-
tension Service. and was made posi-
BILE 10 the farmers of this community
through the effort of County Agent
G. w. Norris and County Home DEM
onstrator Mrs. G. Linthicum, We had
a lecture among other things on the
subject OF tomatoes, but certainly
nothing was said of price fixing.
wish to take this opportunity TO
inform those interested in tomatoes
as TO the facts and what We have done
about the question We have dis
cussed the price of tomatoes for the
coming season in several of our meet
!ngs. but owing TO the conditions that
confront the packer and grower, we
have not been able to reach any def
mite conclusion. Three delegates have
been appointed to attend meeting OF
delegates from the different organiza-
lions of the County to be held at An
napols Tuesday, March 18th. The
question will be taken up there. We
are awaiting their action and we are
in hopes that both the packer and the
grower will receive mutual adyan-
tages from this meeting.
Very sincerely,
G. w. SEARS, Secretary.

At the above mentioned meeting in
October the Executive Council went on
record as adopting Public Health as
the key note OF our peace time work,
which was in line with the National
and Divisional A. r. c. decision.
in carrying out the work Of Public
Health, il was decided TO add to our
present activities. a course in Home
Care of the Sick. and your Chapter on
Organization and Development. was
empowered TO form these classes in the
Chapter and employ Red Cross nurse
from the Potomac Division to instruct
them
This has been done and the classes
are now formed and under instruction
twelve Glasses have been organized,
with an enrolment of over one hun
dred and fifty (150) women.
Great interest and enthusiasm are
shown and it is expected to form from
these classes an organized body OF the
women of the Annapolis and Anne
Arundel County Chapter. into a Nurs-
ing Auxiliary, registered under the
doctors in various sections of the
County, and TO assist the Public
Health Nurse in times of emergency.
This Chapter is fortunate in having
a. most efficient Public Health Nursing
Service.
We have the distinction of establish
ing this srvice in the Chapter, before
the Department of Public Health Nurs-
ing was put in the Potomac Division.
This great step along the lines OF
Public Health, was due to the wisdom
and untiring effort of our former Vice
Chairman, Mrs. John +. Craven.
All of our Standing Committees are
doing splendid work, as their various
reports will show
The Annual Membership Drive, held
November 2-11, 1919. was very capably
handled by Captain John Kaiser. Total
amount to date on membership, ST.
1880.
This Chapter also carried on the
Drive of. the Red Cross Christmas
Seals going well over the top, gaining
thereby for the County substantial
amount which is used for the tubercu-
losis work here at home.
A. total of $SS023. was realized:
100000 for Seals sold, approximately
IS per cent of allotment, the balance OF
the money being donated by some OF
our generous and public spirited citi-
sens. who requested that their names
