GAMERS MAKE
READY FOR WORK
Queen Anne's Packers Are
to Bid for Peas and
Tomatoes
THINK SIS RATE
NOT TOO HIGH

cENTREvILLE. Nd. Feb. IA
Within the next few weeks. Il is
believed that Queen Anne's county
packers will be making definite Of
fers for both peas and tomatoes,
and the indications are that prac-
tically every canning house will be
operated during the coming season.
This week Il was generally under
stood that the prevailing price for
peas would be $50 a ton. as compar-
ed with 500 last season. The con-
tract price for tomatoes a year ago
ago was 50 ton. but It Is be-
lieved practically certain that the
price this year will be about $3.50.
There is a possibility that some
contracts may be written at SIS.
Last year. while the contract
price was 50 ton. the majority OF
growers received SIS. through the
voluntary. action OF the packers. j.
Langrall and Brothers increased
their price and allowed growers the
SIS rate. Notwithstanding the fact
that they had a large acreage un-
der contract at 50.
At $3.50 a ton. or % y a basket
the majority OF farmers believe
they can grow tomatoes at a small
profit Many are OF the opinion
that they should be entitled 10 the
SIS rate IL the market conditions
will warrant IT, but even at s13.5l
many believe that a profit can b.
realized.
