: THE CANNING CENTER. 



Last year Maryland canned more than 

 two-fifths of all the tomatoes put up in 

 the United States. The total pack of 

 the country amounted to 12,920,000 cases 

 of two dozen cans per case. Of that 

 amount Maryland alone packed 5,294,- 

 253 cases. ^^^^ 



By far the greater portion of the to- 

 matoes canned in Maryland are canned 

 in Baltimore. The output of the county 

 canneries is large, but it does not com- 

 pare with the output of the city's pack- 

 ing houses. 



Not only this, but Baltimore is the 

 leading city in the United States in the 

 production of canned goods generally. 

 Those who ate in a position to know say 

 that it is doubtful if the entire output 

 of all the canneries in the state of Cali- 

 fornia equals that of this city. The 

 monetary value of all the vegetables, 

 fruits and oysters canned in this city 

 annually amounts to over $30,000,000. 

 At a conservative estimate the tomato 

 pack alone was easily worth $7,000,000. 



As may be imagined from what has 

 been said, the canneries turn out more
