one laboratory in the world f or a

products Introduced in the fright

right basis, you have a market o
four and ,ene-half billion dollars
In foods ih America. ; That Is 2JS,
500.000 families spend four and
oue-balf billions a year, forf food.
It is the largest bill ike people of
America Joot every twelve months.
r."The extension of the food mar
ket which King's enjoys was the
first consideration of the -t King
company for the present yesir. We
have 'organized the territory from
Houston to Troy; N. Y., j which"
takes In 87 of 'the- ma jot .food
markets of the jUnited States, and
which takes In, 7 per cent of the
totaV per cent of the population,
which takes 175.000 of the) retail
dealers and about7 4800 aU the
leading jobbers - of .' the United
States, and we have set thbs goal
next year Tor- package goods alone
of over $2,000,000 in that terri
tory, r. That does not.include bulk
or evaporated products. 1

TJ. S. Inspected
preserved food in cans was made
In France. ,It was made for Na
noleon's army to help that army
march 'along with less luggage. It
took seventy years tor, the can to
make its way as a merchandise
article. Over seventy yeats was
the can being used and offered to
the people of America before they
bought it In profitable quantities.
"In the history of all economics
over a period of flftyi odd years,
we find that as population grows,
human ingenuity and science pro
vides some way to handle that
food which allows it to be placed
down ' In front of the masses .of
population at a price they can af
ford to pay. '. . . ' ; ;f:;
"Now the second step in the
preserving of foods from the field
to the table, is your dehydration.
Your first step is ' your i canned
goods : Your canned goods will al
ways live. ..But as : your tin In
creases In, cost, as labor increases
in cost, and as transportation dif
ficulties increase, and the cost of
transportation . Increases, ' you are
moTing. that canned, food market
further and further away from the
18,000.000 homes.. '. ; '; '
"And remember thefe are 18,-
000,000 homes with Incomes of
less than 1 1 0 0 0 a year, and can
you figure that your canned, food
market is confined to those 4,-
500,000
homes which ; are getting
over 81, fOO a year 1
.-Noi
these J8, 000,000 homes
have got; to be supplied with food
ona different basis than a. pound
and six ounces of food at ; ; 4 5
cents, or whatever It may happen
to be. You hare either got to do
it In a dried or evaporated state,
and this Is not satisfactory, not
sterile, It is full of impurities from
the air, ground, or( from handling.
You have got to send ; this food
sealed, with ' decomposition I sus
pended, into the homes of 18,
000,000 families. .who can afford
to buy t. ., You cannot do it in
tins, glass, or the fresh state. :
"There is only . one way -and
that Is by dehydration by. sus
pending decomposition end by put
ting if. In, pa per sealed, at a price
that is going to be 40 per cent less
than he same food in a tin, and
klf'40.per cent less you will hare
better food, and I will .tell' yon
why-.
"You have certain essential; ele
ments in all food necessary to live
vitamtnes.; When you put food
under, a certain degree of heat.
you lose some of those vitaminea.
When you can milk you lose some
of the vltamines. The same is
true of peaches, spinach, beans,
etc. And In this , packet of food
here you have the Ideal way from
every etandpofnt, first, because it
has the essential . food : ele
ments,'- second, ' L. because ; it
every stand point, firsf, because It
is the - closest o fresh goods you
can get farther world; and third,
beeanse it is economical, and that
is absolutely essential.
'.'Now what Is the probable vol
ume. -of King's in the next few
years . ' . The .volume of : King's Is
unlimited.. It is whatever King's

thing in the world in. food conservation; that the
King's Food Products Co., with its principal plant in Salem, '
is constantly increasing and proposing to further increase
its capacity; that" it is "putting over?; the marketing of
dehydrated fruits and vegetables;'' that the demand is grow
ing and widening to the' whole circle of the globe; that this
company plans for the nse of a much larger volume and ;
range of by-products; that thus a high degree of prosperity
is insured and absolutely stabilized for the Salem district;
and that nothing could possibly be more important than the

the way of material upbuilding and growth of both the
