CANNERIES In DEL.
HAVE FINE SEASON
Has Not Been Such Food Demand
Since the Big Boom During
The World War.

This years business among the
cannerics Of Delaware has been the
most prosperous and successful sum
mer in many wears, Not since the
biz boom during the war when there
was uch demand for food, has
there been such active scenes wit
messed in lower Delaware where the
raising Of fruits and vegetables is the
chief occupation At Greenwood the
daily average Of tomatoes has been
exceeded in chilli sauce, where the
daily average has been aS high rs
10000 cans. Conditions among the
Delaware canneries have been splen-
did according TO reports obtained by
the State and Federal cannery in
spectors. Labor conditions have not
been a satisfactory as the packers
might have wished. and in the abb
sence Of sufficient local help, the can
ncries have employed outside labor
from Baltimore, Philadelphia and
New York Upwards Of 1000 men,
women and children from the larger
cities who have been employed dur
ing the summer are still at work.
This foreign help will be retained I'M
til the latter part Of October and
probably some weeks Of November
One Of the encouraging features to
those who are seeking to protect the
child is that the majority of the big
packers will not have any children
under Is years old. They tried both
ages-those under II and those above
and are much better satisfied with
the older children, though they pay
the latter higher wages. Sanitary
conditions about the canning plants
are as fine as can BE- found anywhere.
The chief difficulty in the sections
where tomatoes are raised is in OBJ
tanning enough skilled help to skin
the tomatoes. Good SINNERS are al
ways in demand and rs the job is
both hard and somewhat tiresome. il
Is not always that a cannery can OBJ
tain sufficient help in rash seasons.
One plant last week had GO hands at
work when there were enough to-
matoes offered to give work for 100
persons.
There is a machine being given a
try-out at Cambridge, Md, which
