that the average price would be

The agent for one big New Jersey
corporation which makes tomato
soup said that he had figured up the
price obtained by a Delaware farm
er at Magnolia last summer and that
the average received by this grower
was 81 cents basket.
Tomatoes by Million Baskets
Last summer this concern got l.
100000 baskets or tomatoes from
Delaware and the eastern shore of
Maryland. OF this million and a half
of stuff, Maryland contributed $780,
90 baskets. This summer the same
concern expects to get half mil
lion baskets of tomatoes from Mary
land and also a much larger ship
ment from this State.
The concern has arranged to ship
all their goods by boat to Camden,
N. J., starting down at Frederick and
nearly a dozen other places along
the Delaware river line and from
small tributaries of this river.

ly tomatoes it is expected that more
of them will go in for it next spring.
Kent county soil seems to be better
adapted for the raising to tomatoes
than either Sussex or New Castle,
but large quantities are raised in
each of the three units of the State.
Aside from wheat, the raising Of .
tomatoes is about the next biggest /
agricultural activity the State pos
sesses. Usually the farmer fertilizes
his ground pretty generously for the
tomatoes and after this crop is har-
vested he usually sows winter wheat
on the same ground so that he pro-
fits by-twO crops from the land. The
crop of tomatoes from good
well fertilized and well cul-
tivated is between four and five tons
to the acre and if the farmer can
get fair price for his tomatoes and
can get four tons to an acre he has
a crop that pays him about as we'll
as anything he can attempt to raise.
