An idea of the ca pacity of these, plants may be gained from the fact that each one of the intelligent and infallible, bottling and labelling machines Is capable ' of turning out a Vompletely sealed bot tle every 'second of a fsixteen-hour day. .In fact, one, is astonished at the immense amount of the product that can be turned out with a com paratively small working force. , 1 ' , Biff, Outlay in Glass. J " 'i : (The greatest single item of labor in the establishments is the handling of the empty bottles. There are my , riads of them in storage, running all the way from the ''one drink" size np to gallons. The outlay of capital In glass is something stupendous The company has now on hand over fifty carloads of bottles, and as many more on the way. - vW Each one of these plants will em ploy something like fifty hands in all, the monthly payroll Tanning about $2500. A Tifilor'on'a tour' of inspection of the plants was led to remark that the greatest thing about this great industry is, the amount of money paid out, for labor "between the berry fields and the 'bottled sun- This term is well applied,, for no beverage ever pat np . has , a more beautiful color and sparkle than! the loganberry Julcev r Its popularity is ten cars a ,raonta are goiBgoutfrom ; Salem.

Including the gn and tractor, was approximately, 20. 000 pounds. Officers who saw the domonftra tion are convinced that no shell-torn territory will stop the rapid move men cf American field guns when they are sent to support infantry advances. Moreover, the machines are shrapnel proof and can be diaV led only by a direct shell hit. Sec retary Iliker and General March rode in the tractor as It dragged the gun about the broken ground.
