CIIILI1D.T11ES fiBE TIDE III S1LE1 About the middle of September, Gaskill and Renfrow began to manufacture tamales and chili at the residence of the former.' 629 North Winter street.' Since that time the business has expanded into quite substantial propositions. Mr. Renfrow Is no longer connect ed with the manufacturing end of the business, but he is helping In the distributing of the product and the mark . of Gaskill an d , Renfrow is still used on the finished article. To "Wholesale Trader v" y ; I Only wholesale trade is solicited by the concern. - At present repre sentatives v in SiPverton,. Albany, Corvallis, Dallas, Independence; Oregon City, "Aurora and Portland handle the Gaskill - and Renfrow tamales and chili. Once or twice a week these, representatives phone or write their orders to Mr. Gas? kill, who then makes the tamales and the chili called for and ships it by bus to its destination. Mr. Gaskill dOes not keep a stock of tamales on hand, but manufactures them as they are called tor, and in this way assures his customers of the freshness of his product lie states that since he started manu facturing chill his sales have mul tiplied by ten times. This is due to the fact that most of the chili purchased - by local - trade . comes from eastern manufacturers, i and because of the . distance shipped and the time thus lost, the chili is otten spoiled before it reaches the consumer. . Accordingly' the sale of the article in this section had been greatly Impaired. - 4 - " Ia Attractively Packed The chili ia put Up in' attractive bricks, of - half pound -and one pound Twelghls"; To prepare the chili for tho table, the brick is merely dissolved In warm water, and if desired, cooked beans and cracker crumbs added. " A hair pound brlclc makes enough chili for six good plates.- .... f r4i I Jf ! n c REDUCED INQUIRY, AND MISS POPE, FIANCEE mkrf i iiTfn rffiriinnn iinwfiiifrift' 'iitfrriiirrTi'ii as to the cause of death.

Some of the spices are shipped di rectly from Mekico.j The. tamales are made of hicken,? corn meal and - olives. and a. specially pre pared sauce.

Mr. Gaskill estimates that he uses 500 pounds of chicken a wek In the manufac ture of the taniales. In the same article he uses jl 00 pounds of corn meat a day. : His sales of tamales totals approximately 150 dozen a week. His sale of Chili amounts to nearly 300 founds a week. Hoped for Factory Mr. Gaskill is very optimistic about the growth' of his business and hopes ip be 'able In time to erect a factory for the manufac ture of chili.- Just at present "he is selling more tamales than chill, but he expects to develop his chili thriving enterprise business into a before long.
