- , During the month of May, ac
cording to Sam A. Kozer, secre
tary ot state, (323 passenger anl
'.commercial motor vehicles were
licensed in Oregon. Also 265 mo
torcycles, 23 motor vehicle, deal
ers, 773 chauffeurs and 3874 op
erators were licensed during the
month. From all transactions the
:tees totaled 1 1 8 ,5 8 4.8 4. , . .
'V, "During, the month ot- May,
1921, the fees . from the same
source amounted to f 108,530."
ald. Mr. Kozer. "The & receipts
,from motor ' vehicle licenses, etc,
for the year 1922, up to, May 31,
totaled 12,888.308.59, while for
the same period in 1921 , they
Amounted to $2,102,079.
. ' " Number Growlnfif
U VSo far during 1922,. a total of
10t. 310 passenger and commer
cial car licenses have been issued
as against 100,159 licenses during
..the same period in the year 1921.
. ''Upon comparing the registra
tions for the current year with
those ot the past six years we find
that .the same ratio ot increase
lias not been maintained, though
any motor vehicle dealers report
rmuch activity ; during the" past
.'month, .and the oiitloofc Jor in
creased sales quite encouraging.
' : Year Shows Slump j
"On May 31. 1921 there were
nearly 13,000 more cars register
ed than up to May 31. 1920, while
on May 31, 1922 we are only a
Uttle In excess ot 6000 registra
tions over May 31, 1921. These
figures tend .to indicate that we
-will not maintain ' from year to
'year the large Increase which oc
curred during the years 1918,
1919 and 1920. . . " i
Many Are Replaced
t "Undoubtedly a great many
cars will be sold and put Into com
mission, but . man of ' them i will
Ibe replaced as a great number of
old ears those sold . during' the
jfears prior. to 1915 and 1916
are being Junked, having served
their period of usefulness." '

FOR KINE FIRM
Several Carloads of Equip
ment for Dehydrating
Company Are Here
Several carloads of canning ma
chinery tor the big new King's
Products factory came In from
San Francisco yesterday, and the
heavy staff was at once unloaded
and put into the factory reo
for its final setting and steam and
power connection.
The installation waa all made
cn a blue print scale, so that the
steam and power installation
tould be and was put in ready for
the canning machinery proper,
and it all fits lfke a glove.
Keady Xext Week
The machines will be set in
place within a day or two, the
connections made, and they will
be rc;ady to run for the first of the
gooseberry and strawberry run,
probably the last of next week.
The cannery department occu
pies the ground floor of the bui:d
ing, which is being finished first.
The dehydrating section on the
second floor, will not be ready for
the strawberry and gooseberry
tuns. It will take loganberries as
Its first offering, and they are
still almost a month from harvest.
But the strawberries are almost
here.
Soon Ready for Strawberries
All the Salem canneries will be
ready for the strawberries, not
later than Monday, June 12. Tht
new Starr Fruit company plant,
on Mill and Church street, that
waa started only 30 days ago, al
ready has most of its machinery
on the floor, and will start up
along with the rest. It is a gen
uine "sunshine factory", with
more glass and ventilation than
almost any other factory of any
kind in the state.
Growers Preparing
The Oregon Growers' one line
plant will be ready to handle a
considerable quantity of fruit,
and is building a large canned
goods storage room to give it ad
ditional capacity. All the canner
ies have been overhauled and put
into good running condition, so
that the fruit can't come too fast.

for inferior hallocks.
