have in former years. Some 150 of 

 them met in Centerville, Md., January 

 30, representing every section in Queen 

 Anne county, to discuss means of forc- 

 ing a higher price for tomatoes from 

 packers. The Centerville report con- 

 veying this information continues: 

 "Local packers have offered the grow- 

 ers 15 cents per basket, equivalent to 

 $9.30 per ton. This is 2 cents more 

 than was paid last year. The growers 

 say this is not profitable, and ask 17 

 cents. J. Langrall & Bro., the Balti- 

 more packers, erected a mammoth can- 

 nery in Centerville early last season. 

 They say it will be impossible to give 

 more than last season, but the farm- 

 ers, representing many hundreds of 

 acres, announce that they will stand 

 firm, and unless the packers meet their 

 demand, not a tomato shall be grown.
