Tola plant baa a larger dally production of canned vegetable product! than any other plant In existence. Sanitation Almost Beyond Belief "So clean' said Mr. SteTena, "that a lady in evening dress could follow the fall length of the canning process and not toil the mast filmy gown. There Is no odor and there is no waste. Livestock la kept to consume the refuse that Is not sold to the farmers for fer tilizer. The refuse la taken in car loads from the factory platform every 40 minutes. Workers are prepared, to enter the work rooms even as a doctor Is prepared to enter the operating room." Now yon have tha vision that came to the reporter If this can be done In Minnesota la one and sv halt years, what could not be expected In the Willamette "Valley? Mr. 8tevena In speaking of the rest aald there "la no place like It in the world. Then he sketched visions of crowded conditions of certain eastern districts with fac tories closed and eoldest winter coming, and compared It with the wealth f food, fuel, room and climate which la the west's. With fruit and vegetables in such abundance, with long canning seasons, and with excellent can ning conditions the vision for Sa lem becomes brilliant. In the Reld Murdoch and company plant In Rochester, hundreds of visitors call every day. Last Friday when Mr.- Stevens was there, there were 700 registered for that day. That many guests calling on one Sa lem industry would mean some thing to the city. Cannery Future Declared Assured The future of canning la assur ed iu the mind of Mr. Stevens, for he said, "No home is equipped to can vegetables properly. Heat at 40 to TO minutes at 240 degrees is necessary for protection. Homes can't do this. And then the only way for distant points to get fresh vegetables and fruit is through it being eanned. Vegetables ship ped from Seattle to New Tork City are not 'fresh' vegetables." Mr. Stevens and Mr. Madden leave Salem this morning, Mr. Stevens for the east and Mr. Mad den for his home in Seattle. These two men have been associated in the company for the past 45 years, the length of time Mr. Stevens has been with the company, and also, added Mr. Stevens laughing, the length of time he has been married and "to the same gi.l all the time."
