tllo has toned down his langu

picked up a wide and varied
vocabulary of profanity while
with the army.
While In the lock-up, the par
rot attended the regular weekly
religious meetings fur prisoners,
as an interested spectator. He
never disturbed them with holr
raising squawks. Now lie occas

snatches of hymns and does not
swear as much as formerly.

PLANT, MIDWAY
Fire, believed to have origin
ated from defective wiring com
pletely destroyed the Crater
Meat company plant on Midway
Road Friday night. Stanley Mor
gan, owner of the plant which
is a major processing concern
for the Medford area, estimated
that the loss in meat amounts to
$10,000.
The owner, who took over the
plant a year ago last December,
stated that he plans to rebuild
immediately at a cost of about
$35,000, of which 50 percent
will be off-set by insurance.
Office Records Saved
Sam Morehouse, driver for
the sand and gravel pit across
the road, discovered the blaze,
which started at the rear of the
building, about 8:30 p. m. Plant
employees and local residents
who rushed to the scene were
able to save only the records
and office equipment of the
firm, Morgan says. A state for
est service tank truck was call
ed from the Table Rock station
about 0:30 and aided materially
in keeping the fire from spread
ing to surrounding structures.
Morgan, whose plant does
custom slaughtering for a num
ber of Medford markets, in ad
dition to small concerns, farmers
and other individuals, does not
think the loss will incur a meat
shortage in Medford. He ex
plained that the loss would have
been much less had not livestock
In the yard been removed and
slaughtered In preparation for
largo week-end deliveries. (
Much Meat Lost
Fifty-four beef carcasses val
ued at $7,500, 85 hog carcasses
estimated a'l $2,500 and $500
worth of veal was destroyed by
the flames, the owner asserts.
He urges all those who had meat
In the structure to contact him.
The fire exemplifies need of
the Midway area to establish a
district which would maintain
fire equipment, Morgan declar
ed. He believes that with such
apparatus available a large por
tion of the meat woum nave
been saved.
Wiring Blamed
The blaze was still smolder
ing yesterday afternoon. Belief
that defective wiring had caus
ed the fire was expressed to
Morgan by representatives of
his insurance company.
Morgan commented, gralctui-
lv. on the assistance and coop
eration lent by the state police,
forest service and others from
the neighborhood.
