Thej Cross Marlcet xo
by the Grandfather of
. The stability ot Salem as a busi
ness center is well represented by
the Cross Market which was found
ed ia the early days by the grand-,
father of the present owner. ' The
market taa located then at the
corner of t Center . and Liberty
streets, which was a noted place in
those days. TJsfore coming to Sar
lem the elder. Cross tad been en
gaged in meat packing? easiness In
Chicago. . After establishing the
market tere fn Salem te later en
tered into The packing business
and developed wtat was; then con
sidered a wonderful business.'. He
handled as many aa 4,000 toga a
year and made shipments by boat
to Portland. ; In 18S4 the father
of Curtis Cross, the present own
er, purchased the market of his
father and eoadacted it until 190JT
H hen he scid lt to ni.f eon, Curtis.
Hal conducted it personally until
1920 wlua. he retired" from the
personal management--of It to de
vote'hia time to , the business ,of
tt Valley Packing company, ' of
which te Is one of the fouadera.
serving as secretary and treasurer
of the organization. r
The hiatory of the development
o the Cross market la history of
toe development ef aaodera meth
Qfia of handling . food products,
especially meats. Artificial refrig
eratlon. which -is a very vital fac
tor n handling food by modern
methods, was unknowa when the
Cross market was first founded. Ia
fact the nse ' bt ice for preserving
meats and food materials was hut
little used - Towns and cities re
ceived the balk of their meat sup
plies, through their local markets,
largely from the farmers direct.
The iTarmex having fat hogs for
sale butchered them himself and
hauled them to town for sale the
'same as any other product of the
farm. . Artificial, refrigeration
which began to be used in a com
mercial way about 1890, soon
changed this practice and laid the
foundation for the great packing
nausea ot today.. Later the devel
opment ct methods of artificial re
frigeration brought it .within the
react of the retail markets, even in
