California Plant Makes Special ty of Cheese Boxes An interesting box plant which devotes Us entire attention to the manufacture of cheese boxes is the K. & L. llox Factory tit Nlles, Cnl. This plant is operated by Homer E. Leach, who supplies tho latter half of the abbreviated title. In con Junction with' tho Kraft Cheese Co., of Chicago, tho largest concern bf Its kind In tho world.. One must have those tew facts to appreciate just what the K. & L. plant really Is. The factory consists of a main building, which houses tho machin ery, approximately 80x100 feet. A shook warehouse 42x73 feet, ad joining' the factor, was added Inst tall, as well as an additional shed 42x192- feet, south of tho factory and an unloading shed 350 feet long along the railroad siding. - All fac- tory lumber Is purchased 6-4 "In thickness and random width in grades of No. 3 shop. As tho turn ber is unloaded from the cars It is piled on regulation dry-kiln trucks and moves as required to tho rip saw located just iuside the main factory. From hero ' tho material is passed to six California cutoffs Next tho inntorlal goes to tho cir cular resawa. Eight resawa In a battery are employed. - Four of these at& used tor making ends and four tor sides, tops and bottoms. Theso machinos were designed by Mr. Leash and four Of them aro so arranged that one operator can feed two machines simultaneously. A Marshon twin band rosaw com pletes tho manufacturing equip ment. Flne-gaugo saws are used on all the machines to Insure smooth sbook. While nearly all the shook produced at K. & L. plant Is pine, certain grades- of cheese require spruce. The machino work on the spruce shook is also of the same high order.

K. Ben son of tho University of Washing ton, Seattle, department of chemis try.
