NORTH DAKOTA . CANNED TOMATOESA New Industry That Promises Fine Results.A Fargo wholesale concern has just closed a contract with the Cassel-ton Canning Co. for its entire first output of canned tomatoes which Wood V. Remington, its manager, says will reach at least nearly 5,000 cases, that is somewhat dependent on the coming of a frost that would injure the vines.This is the first year the important enterprise, established at Cas-selton, twenty miles west of Fargo, has been in operation to meet the demands of the wholesale houses, and the contract just closed is considered very important from various standpoints as, if this industry is a success, it will mean much for the state at large.The tomatoes which are being put up at Casselton are of excellent quality and flavor, and with the exception of size, are equal to any fruit canned by the eastern or southern packers.The tomatoes are packed In an attractive can containing two pounds, and the brand is known as Remington. The can is embellished with the picture of a nice Juicy tomato and on the reverse side of the can is the official label. Made in North Dakota. The guarantee of the company as to purity, etc., is printed on the label so that if there is anything wrong the buyer will know where to make complaint.
