Oregon Packing Co. Shows
1199 People Employed
At Same Time
.What Is said, to be a" new can
nery record in Salem was mad
by the Oregon Packing company
recently when 1199 people were
employed by the company la a
single day. The company Is
packing beans, pears and., black
berries and the heavy run was
due to the quantities of the
three commodities oa hand. .
The cannery will ' handle
around 500 tons of beans from
the West Stayton district this
year and while present runs are
dwindling down to around 15
tons .a day going through the
lines there the runs have topped
35 tons on beans alone this sea
son. . It is : expected, about two
weeks more will clean up the
beans. f ,-.-" 'T
The equipment en the lines
for handling the beans while re
ducing numerous processes to an
automatic basis nevertheless has
so speeded up production as to
vastly Increase the pack and still
require a much heavier use of
humaa labor.
The . plant In all departments
is still using about 100 employes
a day which will drop off with
the dwindling of the product
Kentucky Wonder
Variety Canned
The whole bean pack now Is
on. Itentucky Wonders coming
principally from the West Stay-
ton section and the beans run
ning through are of a high qual
ity. The bulk of. the pack is in
No. -2 cans for the select trade
but there Is some quantity being
run through the No. 10s for res
taurant trade which is also a
high quality bean although
merely sent through the larger'
cans for bigger quantity orders.
witb tne advanced cookers
now used in the cannery all
chances of the botulinus which
for a time a few years ago
caused some dread of using can
ned beans, has beeit entirely
eliminated. Put in the cookers
for the requisite time under a
temperature of 250 degrees any
botulinus which may be lurking
in the product is effectually
killed.
Much of Grading
Still Hard Work
In addition to this the beans
are put through a course of
washing which sends them inta
the cans entirely free from any
chance of dirt or outside sub
stances clinging to them. Much
of the grading on the beans is
still done by human hands but
various processes such as cut
ting, cutting the tips from the
beans and similar work has been
reduced to a purely mechanical
process.
The beans are all being run in
the 14th street plant of the can
nery while the pear and black
berry run Is being made In the
rehabilitated plant on 12 th
street. ;

Johnson has Mine Crushers
Busy to Cover Grades v
Before Rain Comes
For the next two- mouths jthe
order et the day for Marioa
county road work -will bo ffeet
more crushed rock on recently
graded roads,? according to Frank,
Johnson, county roadmaster.
With the rainy season approach
ing and with a large amount of
new grading yet uncovered, John
son will keen battery of nine
rock crushers scattered througout
the county working full-blast to
pile new rock on the roads. An
output of 1000 to 1500 yards
dally is expected by Johnson 'who
has a fleet of trucks working to
get the rock -scattered.
Johnson made an inspection of
the crusher at Stayton on Friday
aad found it producing nearly 200
yards of rock a day while the one
near Marion is turning out 125
yards daily. Sixty per cent of the
Stayton rock is going into the
county paving plant which is now
sending "hot stuff to the road
construction at the Crawford's
school. When the paving pro
gram is finished ths fall, Johnson
expects12 miles of new pavement
wm oe in.
Before the paving crew started
this summer on the county roads,
the Southern Commercial resur
facing was done at a cost of $14,-
000 for the city of Salem. John
son says Marion county finds lay
ing its own pavement the most
satisfactory method to follow
both from the standpoint of qual
ity obtained and from the stand
point of cost.

covered Friday in the investigation
of the fire which Wednesday night
practically destroyed the ;lant of
the Cherry City Milling company

The Infant death rate for Ma

The causes for death are divid

Infections, four; death caused by
conditions of birth, four; and the
balance of five died due to con

Prevention for these deaths lies
in the proper care of the mother

According to Dr. Douglas, the
infant death rate is a delicate in

modern health possibilities. An in
fant is particularly sensitive to
water, milk, and all exterior con

The infant death rate for the

of tho labor department's women's
bureau, in a labor day statement'
"Finding immediate remedies
for our present slump," she said,
"is the urgent business confront
ing us and calling for traightfor
ward thought and action. In plan
ning a program of industrial bet
terment the most obvious feature
to be discarded is not this or that
class of workers but the long
work day."
She added the shorter day was
a simple expedient wihch did not
require complicated machinery for
its inauguration" and said it offer
ed the most powerful lever for re
lief at the present time.
Miss Anderson contended that
"a period of unemployment should
not be made more warped through
the introduction of a sex issue"
adding that bth sexes "must con
tinue to earn in order to live."
