Largest Aster Hour's Ride From Salem By ELLA MrMTJXN The largest aster seed farm in the world is an hour's ride from Salem, in Yamhill county, a short mile west of McMinnville. and in add ltionMo seed that has found a market the wide world around. 157.000 cut flowers have in timesH past gone to grace the homes , and halls In eastern cities, and young plants have been sent out in con siderable quantities to gardners who wish to be assured of a fair start.- Herbert ft Fletshauer is the firm name of the aster growers.

Seven acres of land valued, at $1,000 an acre are given up to the flower growing that began with a few beds some 20 years ago, part ox this being used for tbe cut flower department wnich last vearbrought them SCO 00. in ad dition to tbe seed Income which looks enormous until you baVe figured the express inddentlal ; to raising the double croo. such as labor, water, express, and green- bouse upkeep, for while the plants are outdoor grown they ate for tbe most part started tn the arean house where ot least 150.060 must be very early to appear on the cut flower market just at the moment ' whn ' vrvth in ar tn the floral lineHas become passe. Some Bla Expenses An aere of land, properly fer tilized and worked will yield 30 pounds -of aster seed which sells from 111 to (5 per pound, mak ing around 12.000 an acre for th choicest rarities which, unfortun ately are always the shyest seed ers, so that 15.000 about covert what you may expect from that acreage of seed.

ATSklnner. sprinkler sys tem maaes it jaln over tbe cut flower patch, but the seed beds have been given no water this vear. as a worm, known to scien tists as "symphylid" proved very destructive wherever water was nsed, and so dry farming was re sorted to In the seed beds.

During the rush season of setting Out plants in the early spring, cutting flowers from July to late . September, and picking the . seed pods in late October, there are IS; people employed.

This plant is now making plugs for the ends of paper rolls for 17 different paper mills on this coast, Including three each at San Fran cisco and Los Angeles, two at Oakland and plants at Vancou ver, Wash;, and other points. The paper plugs turned out-here run in size from a half inch to three and a half inches. There is one order in hand for a naif million paper piugs, ana another for 300,000 of the half inch site for the foils of gummed paper used In wrappings In the place of strings.; This is a new line here. A Long Straggle . This enterprise is the outcome of the broom handle factory that was established some years ago in West Salem, and which suffer ed from a disastrous fire. The institution has had a long, hard struggle, but its prospects now are brighter. The present propri etors are Charles Doane. H. E Barrett, W. T. Nelson and W. R. Adlard. The work in, hand and in pros pect will keep 'the force busy for an Indefinite period. This plant is in condition to take on custom work In hardwood lumber sawing. One of. the best sawyers in the state in ' this line is now employed. A Rig Field That there is a big field for the operation of such a wood work ing plant here generally is admit ted. The supply of raw materials is all but unlimited. There are many here who want the work, and all that Is necessary is more capital and machinery, backed by experts with vision. There is am ple room here for a big furniture factory, making chairs and all the rest of the articles of a full fledg- fed operation of that kind.

To tbe chance visitor, who is not a specialist all seem . wonderful and marvelous, but the favorite, ap parentally, among all the dainty blues and lavenders and pinks seemed to be .the "Heart of Roch ester," a brilliant crimson which grew very double and also had a sort of fiery orange Illumination In the center not often found in any flower. Until the present year a cul flower store. - and . refreshment stand was operated by the Fleish auers in the city of McMinnville, but was sold, as it made work anyway. Two years ago an at tractive catalogue was issued, a model of fine printing and Illus tration, both photographs - and printing being the work of Mc Minnville 'people, and this serves to answer many of the question that otherwise would require per sonal correspondence, and which gives kindly encouragement to stack up a little too heavily upon the proprietors who find they have undertaken an. all year round -jub others contemplating entering the industry on a- commercial scale In it. however, is no hint of -the valiant struggle made by tbe Her bert Ml Fleishauer company against pests, water shortage, and weather conditions, for they are brave, self-reliant and hopeful people, brimful of "pep" and en thusiasm .for 'their work, who laugh when , they tell you bow they dug three wells, one of them 450 feet deep aad still dldn? get water for their garden, .and .bow they go about with a can of coal oil into which they knock the de structive . tarnish beetle as . he feeds on tbelr blossoms." andVother things that all come as part of the day's work, an optimism that has had a large part In making their aster seed garden the phenomenal success It la.

In tbe ouiiamg lormerij occupied by the Salem wicaer Furniture company, has an inter esting place, that is attracting at tention not only 'from many peo ole of this city but of men and women in other valley cities who have beard of it through friends and tn other ways. - Mrs. Vent, .who was formerly Mrs. Kate FWcher; nee Miss Jef ferson, a daughter of John Jeffer. son. thus connected with two welli known pioneer famines nere, nas for! years been buying and selling antique furniture and articles. She took up this occupation as a hobby. -With. her husband, she Is followingTt as a business; as an ambitious factory operation. - Mr. Vent is a mechanical gen ius. He has largely improvised and built his own machinery, and has a well equipped shop, which is being added to as the business develops.; Old, Things and New In this antique shop and store are gathered bedsteads and chests and many odd pieces of furniture that did f service in pioneer days. They are repainted and repaired and put in order for present day use, and they are being taken into the best homes of Salem. This shop and factory was opened- in its present location in June. It bad been started in tbe Holly wood district. Mr. Vent makes duplicates of Antique pieces of furniture. He started to make a particularly at tractive table as least it looked attractive to a visitor to tbe shop. I was bought before finished. This has Ibeen repeated several times; and tbe only one of its kind on hand when the reporter visited the shop on Wednesday was still un finished; but it bad been sold. Salem claims tbe youngest man ufacturers In Oregon, and they are wood workers, which fact gives them a place In this Slogan issue. Walter Wiens was until a short time ago a Statesman carrier. He would be yet, excepting that his factory takes up all his time. He is 17. His brother, Robert, who is his partner, is 14. Their father is a German, though he came to Salem from Russia. Both his father and grandfather have been cabinet makers. Tbe Wiens boys got their trade mostly from their father; tbeir ingenuity was inher ited. They have built for themselves, on their father's property, a little factory- It is at 1440 Fair grounds road. They are making sewing cabinets, radio tables cedar chests, piano benches, book cases, etc. Several of the leading Salem furniture stores take their book Cases. Tbey painted their own building. They use a "gun" of their own designing in paint ing their furniture. They finish it with pictures, like that of the Mayflower. They make anything that can be mare in the way of cabinet work. Their sewing cab inets are highly prized by Salem housewives who have them. Who knows how far these youngsters may go? They have the genius, and tbey may be running a great furniture factory in Salem before they are many years older. They have a going concern now, and will be more then busy till after 4 the holidays, with a world of op portunities thereafter. Antiques & Cabinet Work Genalne Antiques or Copies a Specialty.
