Try a Journal Want Ad 10,000 Cases Carrot Pack Started by Jory The Jory Packing company at Liberty started a carrot pack yes terday which It la expected will last lor about three weeks. The pack will not be overly large, from 8,000 to 10,000 cases, will be put up In Nos. 2's and 10's, the carrots being diced. The carrots are coming from the sandy bottoms in the Jefferson dis trict and are reported of fine qual ity. The Jory Packing company this year completed one of the most In. teresting vegetable packs yet at tempted here In the shape of frozen beans and com now In storage at the Terminal Ice & storage com pany and ready for shipment to the east where It already has been sold. Roland Jory, manager of the can nery, believes that the vegetable pack Is destined to be the main pro duction In this section and In a few years will eclipse the fruit pack which now leads the field by a heavy margin. Just ' such packs as the one put up at his plant this year, however, Is the forerunner of what can be done with vegetables In this section and the demand Indicates that the pro duction could go to great limits. The pack in question Is a frozen pack of Blue Lake beans secured from the Clear-Hill Co-operative at West Stayton and of Golden Cross corn coming mainly from patches grown by Alderman ec Son near Dayton and Jake Gllmore and Char ley Hunt near Jefferson. Both beans and corn are packed In cardboard cartons, the beans and corn being frozen solid and main. tained In that condition until ready for use. The corn pack In the main Is made up of whole kernels cut from the cob although some of the com was packed directly on the cob. The resultant pack is something very pretty to look at and very edible when prepared, and what is of more importance to this section, very at tractive to buyers and consumers. 'I look for this form of pack to be one of the most Important in this section," stated Jory, and many others who keep In close touch with food production developments here agree with him.

December through April. , The report predicted;. Corn belt states will increase the number of lambs fed this fall and winter to more than offset a de crease In western states. - The price of slaughter lambs In December probably will be higher than a year earlier, but the season. al advance from January to April will be less than for the same months this year. v A probable weaker demand for meats and wools will lower the av. erage price for the coming season, compared with last season. Total supplies of sheep and lambs for the December-April per. iod will be no larger than In 1938' 37.
