Tomatoes and Potatoes Industry Growth Across States
The article argues tomatoes for canneries will grow into a major industry in several states led by Indiana with about a million wages and Michigan? Martland tops with around two million cases annually. It covers growing methods for canneries, soil, plowing, frame starting, and spacing, plus a new potato culture by W J Darst claiming a sawdust method to yield twelve to sixteen tubers per potato. It also references fertilizer needs, nitrogen, phosphoric acid, potash, and notes on model dairy barn designs and horticultural figures like Luther Burbank.
