I kissed her and assured her
of the absolute Tightness of her

was frantically querying "What

I was not to receive an answer

I called a taxi for Alice Hol-

In your treatment of Allen Drake

yourself into a patient Griselda
and refuse even to speak to such
heart-breakers as Allen Drake. If
you're wise, however, you'll do
neither. Just greet that husband
of yours as if nothing had hap
pened when he does deign to come
home tomorrow."
But ; It wasn't on the morrow
that I h.ad the chance to greet
uicay numDiy or haughtily. Ii
fact, there came no message what
ever from him, but in the morn
ing I was called to the telephone
far a long- distance message, and
recognized with a thrill of startled
dismay the voice of Allen Drake.
May I speak to Mr. Graham?"
he asked after he had uttered th
customary platitudes.
"Mr. Graham is not here." My
throat was dry as I spoke.
"Is his car there?"
"No. Mr. Graham has not heen
home since he drove you to the
station."
"I see." The tone told me
that he did Indeed "see".

"Thank yon. Good-by."

I hung up the telenhone with at
feeling of relief. At least there
pad not been the encounter h

so idiotically feared. But as the
hours of the day wore awav and

Capacity of Local Concern to
Be Increased One-Fourth
This Season
By careful remodeling, rebuild
ing of machinery, and the instal
lation of new units of machinery
all through the plant,; the Oregon
Packing company is going to in
crease the capacity of its plant
fully 25 per cent for the coming
season. That is the company's
comment on the current business
situation in the fruit industry.
The old processing room at the
rear of the plant has been remod
eled, and the canning machinery
has been moved so as to add 100
xlOO feet floor space to the prep
aration room. This will give the
workers room to handle all the
fruit that can be brought to them.
An extensive system of conveyor?
will handle the fruit all through
the plant, increasing the efficien
cy and speed of the whole proc
ess. Much of the building has
been refloored, and the whole
place is being repainted and put
in apple-pie order.
A new syruping system, with a
capacity of 200 sacks a day, has
been built in and re-piped for
much more effective service. The
Anderson-Barngrover continuous
cooking, variable discharge can
ning system is used throughout.
The cans are never touched by
hand after they are put into the
feed hoppers at the filling station,
until they delivered sealed, cool
ed, and ready for crating. The
variable discharge system of cook
ing allows the canned stuff to
stay in the steam cooking cham
ber as long as required, anywhere
from five minutes up to the long
est time possible for the most re
fractory food that requires several
hours of cooking.
The cannery has on hand prac
tically none of its last year's im
mense pack, hardly enough for
samples to sh,ow how it is done.
Gooseberries come for the first
crop, after which the cherries and
logans will take the boards. The
Oregon Packing company, instal
led a particularly efficient pear
handling system last year, and
will have this equipment ready to
put back into place again this
year, after other berry fruits are
out of the way.
"Up to the present time there
seems to be nothing in the way
6i a bountiful crop of fruit this
season." said Manager E. C.
Quinn. "The season is late, but
apparently no damage has been
done to any kind of fruit, by either
winter freeze or spring frost. We
anticipate a profitable year for
the grower, and a busy year for
the packers, with work for every
body in due season."
