A Leader representative visited the site of the new fruit dryer and cannery this week just south of the Brown Lumber Co’s sawmill, and found the carpenters busy lay ing the joists for the first floor which will be four feet above ground or on a level with a freight car floor aud wagon bed. A fine concrete foundation has been laid 40xS0 feet with numerous center piers. A coucrete foundation for the drier furnace 1 2x35 feet has also been laid. The building will be three stories high and modern in all of its departments. It is be ing constructed from the best of materials and the evaporator will be of the latest improved hot-air type. The vegetable and fruit canning equipment will probably not be added until next year, but ample provisions are being made for its installation later. This will be one of the largest and best fruit drying plants in the I'pper W il lamette valley when completed. Mr. J. A . Ackerman, late of Idaho is boss carpenter and is doing good, conscientious work, and more men will be put to work as soon as ma terials can be had in greater quan tities. Mr. Henstnore, the pro moter of the enterprise, is on the ground and is personally supervis ing the work. Cottage Grove is very fortunate in securing such an enterprise, which however, will be of even more benefit to the farmer and fruit grower of this community than to the town. W e understand Mr. Densmore is receiving appli cations from fruit growers about Creswell and other outside points to dry fruit for them from their or chards. Now let the farmers and fruit growers bring in their fruit products and the drier will do the rest this fall.
