Visitors are always welcome ai this plant
lLEM has a great manv tilings of whiVh wo
may all be proud. Salem
city. The state buildings and grounds have
contributed to this as has the development of
our business and residence sections.
And Salem is growing. With a population
now approximating 30,000, we have three hos
pitals, thirty-two churches, four banks, four
theaters, our two excellent daily newspapers
and three libraries.
In and around Salem, within a radius of
25 miles, there are more miles of pavement
than will be found around any other city of cur
class and many much larger in the whole
Pacific Northwest. On January 1 this year
there were 285 miles of paved roads within this
Salem trading area and 950 miles of macadam
roads.
Local industries are important and thriv
ing. Pulp and paper making, logging and lum
bering, the manufacture of woolens and linens:
c
these industries with their handsome payrolls
are growing and helping Salem to grow.
We are not inviting attention to the plant
of the Cherry City Baking Company because of
its size, for it is small in comparison to the
Occupying the Corner of Market and Broadway ,
plants of our important industries, but for
other reasons.
One reason why w7e believe it is deserving
of attention and interest is because, to a degree
"not rivalled by any other institution in Salem,
it is giving daily service to the people, the
homes and the families of Salem and our sur
rounding valley.
And this relationship of the Cherry City
Baking Company to the people of Salem and
the Willamette Valley is a close and important
relationship, for we are supplying them every
day with an important part of their food their
daily bread.
It might be fair to say that bread is the
most important item of human food. Every
body eats bread and everybody eats bread at
almost every meal. We eat bread about a thou
sand times a year.
'No one will question, therefore, the serious
importance of knowing that the bread we de
pend upon so heavily for the maintenance of
our health and strength, is made as it should be.
It should be made by men who are proud of the
privilege of making the bread for the commun
ity men with that kind of business honor
w hich means that they will not merely carry on
their business for a profit, but that they will
recognize their proper responsibility for giving
to the community the best bread that can be
made.
That is the spirit of the Cherry City Bak
ing Company. When it started business in
1916, it did not move some equipment into an
old and perhaps unsanitary building. It built
its ovn sanitary and scientific plant from the
ground up. It was destroyed by fire in Novem
ber, 1927.
Promptly then work was begun on plan$
for a larger and even better plant and on March!
1, last year, the present Cherry City Bakery
was completed and in operation.
There are larger bakeries in larger cities,
of course. There is no better bakery anywhere.
Every improvement dictated by scientific
. U . 1 y.vir J
1 ;
study of the responsible business of making
bread, developed in the American Institute of
Baking or elsewhere, was made a part of the
plans for the erection of this bakery and its
equipment.
In our daily operations, the most sanitary
conditions are 'maintained and the most mod
ern and scientific methods used. The flour and
other ingredients are choice carefully select
ed for their high quality and proven merit in
actual use.
Automatic machinery wraps our bread in
a sanitary wax paper for its protection from
our ovens to your tables. The products of the
Cherry City Baking Company represent con
