Allen, local manager, who states that the can nery will erect another ware house addition a twin to the addi tion of last year, 40x240 feet, a continuation of liut year's addition on the Front street aide of the cannery. ii addition the storage room tn the basement will be nearly doub led, an improvement of much sig nificance In the cannery's possi bilities of handling Its pack such ;ts apples and pears. JiKt yvar the cannery was compelled to t un through its pear pack on record time becuMe of lack of storage space, when It could have hand ltd the pack much more to the ad vantage of the cannery itelf had It been equipped with ample storage Npace to put throjgh tho park more at leisure and sujidwich In other fruits. lies! ties furnishing additional storags space for storage of frexh pears, apple and other fruits, the additional rornn will give mote place for storage of canned pro- lucts when the fresh fruits have moved out and also give additional Apace for storage of empty cans rly In the year. The company also will Inntull a new can conveyor to take the cans directly from the cars to tho cun ning tables which will materially expedlto handling and cut down ex pen am. Manager Allen also is refining the WJrkliiKS of the g ruder and conveyor system In the canner It self. The system now In use was installed hint ye.ir and proved such a remarkably efficient worker that during the summer various can iiurymen were here from all sec tions of tho northwest to examine its workings find gather liic-iix Tho con: pan v alsc Is putting In a new firo WMI between the can wry and the warehouse. Tills no only gives added fire prott-ction hut cuts down insurance costs ma' tvrially. Machinery also is being over hauled anil put in shape for the coming season, which r r canner- Ira in general hero probably will bo ono of tho most Im port ant in the history of the canning Indus- Iry.

Cannerymen nnd others state It is an Indication that strawheri y growers have come to a realization that a fair price for their com modity year in and year out meann much morn money tor them nnd the ndiiM'ry than an Inflated mar ket one year and a back broken mat kot tho next. Contrary to previous reports It Is understood that both Hunt brothers and the Oregon Packing r nil puny have mado a big slirnup of.Htrawberrles for thH year, Hunt lii-othcrs, it Is stated, halving fully th many strnwnerries aigneil up at this time as It had af the close of the season Inst year. Hunt broth- rs contemplate doing barreling of strawberries as well as canning I his year.

Pearcy, a local repre sentadve of Denney Jtt Co. of Chi cagu, to certain statements recent ly made by L. W. Wells of Young and Wells. The magnitude of the Denney operations in this valley was revealed by 1'earcy, incidental ly. Apparently, Salem and the whole Willamette valley are due for an awakening on fresh fruit shipment. If large fruit ship ping concerns like Denney & Co. take the Interest in the fruits of Oil district and build up markets for them, another outlet for west ern Oregjn f i nits will be es'ab l:hed. Considerable shipping busi ncas was done last year by sev era I companies In cherries, green prunes and apples and local grow ers fcit that the activity on the part of thene outside shipping con eel us was due to some peculiar turn in events barring other om it lets from shipping their usual tonnage bit according to state ments being made by representa tives of these companies this busi ness Is being established here with a permanent basis in view. "Denney & Co. of Chicago Is perhaps the largest shipper or peri.shnbie fruits in the country," aays Pearcy. "It is a $3,000,0o0 concern operating in practically every statu in the union. It haa no fly-bv-night intentions, its ex pans ion Into the Kalcm territory Is a process of growth. Iast seanon tho local fruit was shipped with a degree of caution. Shipping soft fruits to cistern markets is haxard ous In any event and adding the rain factor here, shippers have looked askant upon operating In tills field. Denney & Co. do noth ing else aside from handling ship ping and selling fresh fruits. ThUt buHlness they know and their en trance Into this territory is due to their belief that by careful and rapid handling our fruits can be placed on the eastern markets in good condition. Iast year Donney & Co. shipped nearly fifty cars of black cherries from this vnlley and several hun dred cars of green prunes. This season we plan on moving uround 150 cars of cherries alone. Regarding this "highest cash price' talk I am reminded that this Niim3 company whose representa tive seems to think that growers should hold off until he decides to co mo In here again, made a high s.:t cah price of 5 to 5 cents last year while the pool netted the glowers twice that amount per pound. A cash buyer taken all of the risks and pays the grower ac cordingly. In districts where lnnii"y Co. operate the 'guaran teed base plus plan la used with great success. The grower obtains more than any cash price offered ami the company gets volume. No natter what the market goes to the grower participates on a defin Ito bastt. If this plan had been used lure Inst season we could have paid the groucrs between 10 and 11 cents instead of the cash price of 5 cents paid by cah Luyers. This year we are contracting on a 5 cent hose guarantee. After de ducting the parking costs above tills guarantee tho grower gets the next cent ami theprofits nbuve that figure are divided equally. This is the best proposition ever made to local growers as the company takes the rinks Including the pack ing cost, advance and freight guar antee and allows the growers to participate. In the profits above his C cents. Denney & Co. have signed a heavy tonnage on this basis as the growers are not slow to recognize Its merits. This cherry movement will be the biggest deal of Its k'nd ever hnoiilled here. We Insist that growers spray for worms and If necessary for brown rot. We are cooperating with the O. A. C. and other agencies to help tne growers get the best possible fruit. mav snv fiat Denney ft t'o. shipped .over 7000 cars of fresh fruits out of the three northwest ern states last year and are fln- mced so that they could operate tn n cash basis If they thought the growers preferred tho low cash prlcrt to the guaranteed plus re sults."

N J. t-4 FALSE ESTIMATE While efforts were made at se crecy when the packers at their meeting here last week took a cen sus of the 1 fl prune crop and figured out there were 69,000.000 pounds of prunes In It, much to the disgust of moat of the indi vidual packers who participated In the census, they are wondering now who was the traitor In the camp that shot the report out to the California Fruit News. The report was printed in the Capital Journal considerably ahead of the California Fruit News report, but to get In the. current issue of the fruit news It is figured by local packes someone must have tele graphed the Information immedi ately following the meeting. Who d d the telephoning is what some of the packers are wondering. Kvery individual virtually agrees that the estimate is far above the actual figures and nothing has caused so much talk among fruit men here for months as the evi dently padded estimate of the 1924 crop. Kvery packer put In his fig ures secretly and the total made up. "Somebody lied." Is the song that a number of packers are singing flinco the figures came out. So high were the figures, so out of proportion to all estimates that had been spread broadenst earlier in the season by packers to their brokers, the Intention was to keep the figures secret. And then some body leaked to the California Fruit E Chicago, Feb. 24 Initial wheat prices, which ranged from to 1H higher.
