NEWBERG CANNERY IS
MAKING A BIG PACK
PEACHES ARE PUTTING UP PEARS
Payroll Buns About $1,000 Per Day
’ and Two Can Pears are
Hacked Daily
Blue peaches paring pears! Can
you imagine It? It's a bard thing to
conjure in one's mind we’ ll admit,
but if you will take the trouble some
day very soon to visit the Oregon
Canning Co.'s plant down near the
railroad, you’ll see about 230 ljlue
clad peaches busily engaged in p*eel-
ing and packing pears, for that Is
what the local cannery is doing prin­
cipally at the present time. One
hardly realizes Just how big a thing
that cannery Is and how much it
really means to this community un­
til they visit it and watch the large
numbers of women and girls and the
numbers of men and boys Bcurrylng
hither and thither, skillfully peel­
ing and packing delicious looking
fruit.
Over two carloads of fresh fruit
per day is the way the green fruit
enters the local cannery and about a
car and a half of finished product is
the way they are working It up.
About four carloads of canned fruit
are being shipped per week and they
are running behind their orders and
expect To soon be shipping about a
carload per day of the finished cann-
i*l product.!
At the present fully 300 persons
are employed in the various pro­
cesses at the cannery and they are
just getting down to nice working
oraef.
or this j<ro. a to m zso are
women and girls and about 60 or
70 are men and boys. The cannery
payroll runs about $1.000 per day.
The men get 35c to 40c per hour
while the women and girls get up to
$5.00 per day. The minimum wage
is around $2.50 per day and «the av­
erage is $3.00 a day or better. It
means a great deal to Newberg to
have this splendid payroll here and
Mr. Matthews informed us that they
expect to run about two months more
yet. They will put up prunes and
apples following their run on pears
and will then go onto butter and
preserves.
Mr. Matthews states that condi­
tions in the, canned fruit world are
somewhat Improved and that orders
are coming In for goods. However,
the market is spasmodic and one day
they will get a good run of orders
and then will follow a week o f'a p ­
parent stagnation In the market.
This keeps them guessing as to the
status of affairs, but they are now
going ahead on about one-half of
their 1920 run and are hoping for
better conditions all the time. It is
apparent that the public is adopting
a hand to mouth policy in their buy­
ing and are not laying in any stocks
of goods. Mr. Matthews says that
It is apparent that the public needs
the goods but haven’ t the money to
buy and that the wholesalers them­
selves haven't sufficient capital to
finance themselves.
Orders now
come in for 10 or 20 cases where
they formerly came in for a carload
Itiul where they formerly ordered
several cars of fruit they now order
only one.
However, there Is a silver lining
to the dark cloud, for whereas the
banks refused to advance sufficient
cash at the opening of the season
to enable them to pay cash for the
fresh fruit, they are now realising
that better conditions warrant them
in advancing to the canneries and
they are enabled to pay the farmers
cash for their fruit.
The local cannery is one of the
three largest in the northwest and
when one looks around at the idle
machinery and realizes that even
with the part which Is running that
the cannery 1 b employing 300 per­
sons and packing from 25 to 30 tons
of pears per day. one cannot help
but be impressed with the thought
that could It only be run to full
capacity. It would mean a wonderful
thing to Newberg and vicinity.
Mr. Matthews, the general super­
intendent of the Oregon Canning
Co., and Mr. Robertson, the local
manager of the cannery both are
men of broad vUion and they pic­
tured n future for Newberg which
few people have probably realized
as they showed what some day may
come to pass here In this wonderful
valley when all of this valley is
dotted with prune orchanls and ber­
ry patches and when not one, but
many; canneries exist here.
Does
anyone doubt that this is something
which not only may, but absolutely
will come to pass? If they do, let
them consider, that land values are
constantly on the raise, that taxes
are likewise constantly on the up­
ward trend, and that In the very
nature of things, it will not be long
until these conditions will force the
farmers and owners of farm lands
hereabouts to cut larger holdings up
into small acreages and plant to ber­
ries and prunes, and such fruits as
will enable them to get larger re-
turnr from their holdings.
Asked If the cannery was making
a satisfactory run, Mr. Matthews
replied that canning conditions were
commenting to assume a more sat­
isfactory plane, but that they were
still not satisfactory. It Is hoped
that conditions may continue to Im­
prove until another year may see

NEWBERG, YAMHILL COUNTY, OREGON, THURSDAY. SEPTEMBER IS, 1921
A SURPRISE KITCHEN SHOWER
A kitchen shower wan given on
September 6, In honor of Nina coffee,
who la to be married to Lester F.
Smith of Portland the first part of

given and refreshments were served.
APPLE FESTIVAL WAS
A SPLENDID AFFAIR
WEST CHEHALEM ENTERTAINMENT
Fine Banquet, Toasts Given, Good
Sports and Splendid Exhibits
Please Many Visitors
West Chehalem and apples are
synonyms at least to those who at­
tended the splendid apple festival
given by the West Chehalem people
at the No. 10 school house last Sat­
urday. There was a very nice at­
tendance on the part of Newberg
citizens and also the people from
West Chehalem and other commun­
ities and it was borne upon the
minds of all that that West Cheha­
lem spirit is an unbeatable proposi­
tion.
The festivities were really opened
with the apple banquet. We thought
that when the Weat Chehalem people
advertised that they would have ev­
erything to eat that one could think
of that they were going a little
strong for we could conjure up many
good things 40 be made of apples and
eaten but they thoroughly demon­
strated that they could out-think us
in this respect for they had many
kinds of apple dishes of which we
had never heard.
Seated at the Ion« tables under
the shade of the big oaks of the
school ground were scores of people
and yet there seemed to be an abund­
ance of everything good to eat.
Sandwiches, salads. cakes. pies, jel­
lies, sauce, butter, fritters, cider, in
fact everything in the apple line
imaginable was there, even the
appl(e)guse.
After everyone had eaten just
all they could possibly,eat and then
had chucked away a little more just
for good measure. W. V. Dolph arose
and acting as toastmaster Introduced
a number of persons who made short
talks and others who sang and in
other ways participated in the for­
mal program. John tJ. Smith, Mr.
Larson. Henry Amoth. Dr. Logan,
Chester A. Dlmond, and Rev. Brock
made short speeches on subjects
given them off hand at this meet­
ing. Mr. Smith’s subject was "an
apple a day" and he took his read­
ers Into the scripture and his know­
ledge of this, while giving evidence
of being slightly amiss, was a “ Rev­
elation” to his audience. Mr. Larson
spoke on “ The Apple Trust” which
he declared did not exist in reality.
Dr. Logan spoke on the subject
"Apoplexy” and advised his audience
to eat an apple a day to avoid apo­
plexy. Rev. Brock told his hearers
of the purpose of the gathering and
started a collection which netted the
West Chehalem people nearly $60
towards their stereopticon machine.
Mr. Bateham favored the audience
with a solo entitled "Twickenham
Ferry” and Mrs. Amoth read "Apple
Loves" which was a' story with
blanks to be filled in with the names
of apples, which the audience sup­
plied— that is the names, not the
apples. A group of children acted
out some apple scenes, such as pack­
ing. apple pests, etc.
Following the banquet and pro­
gram. the crowd was largely divided
into two groups represented by those
wearing red and blue ribbons and a
field meet was held including such
things as a foot race, where the fel­
low with biggest feet won. This
proved to be Dr. George Larkin, who
represented the reds.
The other
events of the day were quite in keep­
ing with this and afforded much
amusement..
But we have left the best for the
last. The exhibits of apples were
marvelous in quality and while the
busy season no doubt prevented
many growers from making exhibits
and thus curtailed the size of the
exhibit. It was a revelation to us
that such wonderful apples were
grown In this community. There
were branches so heavily loaded
with apples that they were almost
crowding each other off from the
stems. There were plates of many
varieties which almost reached per­
fection. There were boxes of mar­
velously colored and packed apples.
Did you ever see a two and two
pack? We’ll bet that you don’t ev­
en know what It means. Living in
such a wonderful apple country, you
really should be ashamed, but we’II
have to admit that we didn’ t know
what it meant until we visited the
apple festival.
Billy Sullivan, the
owner of the “ Home Plate" orchard
had two boxes of wonderful winter
banana apples, one of which was a
two and two pock. In other words
the apples are packed In rows, two
rows being put towards the front
of the box and the two between back
towards the back. N<*w isn’ t that
clear? We realize that it isn’ t, but
It’s hard to say In words. Placing
the front of the box towards you.
Just imagine tha.t the apple In the
left hand corner is snug against the
front of the box. The next one will
be just a trifle back of this so as
to fit In, then the next one will be
against the front again and the
