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.
Other equipment Includes two
Eby automatic rotary wire-tying
machines, ono Parker hand-tying
machine, ono California cleat saw
one Eby swing cut-oft saw and one
Hooper box printer. Reese burner
and blow pipe system Is employed.
Tho Kraft cheese factories require
a wide rango of sizes, the smallest
being 8x6 1-2x1 1-2 and the long
est shook' required being 14 6-8 in.
to make the 10-pound loaf box. In
between these sizes aro from IS to
30 different boxen. All shook Is
strictly .clear and shipped In . wire
bundles, with tho exception of the
smallest sizes, which are shipped in
crates.
The capacity of tho plant is
90.000 feet per day. Tho superin
tendent in charge of tho production
of this material is William 1a-
Crone, formerly with the Mercantile
Dox Co., of Oakland, Ca).
Mr. Leash during tho past month
Or two has been dividing his time
between . Nlles and New West
minster, D. C, where he is putting
in a plant similar to the one In Cali
fornia for tho production of spruce
sbook exclusively.

Process of Making Wood Alcohol
Invention In Germany of a new
process for the manufacture of wood
alcohol, cheap enough for use as a
motor spirit, may have an Import
ant influence on Northwest Indus
tries, according to Dr. II. K. Ben
son of tho University of Washing
ton, Seattle, department of chemis
try. By the German process, wood
alcohol can be made for IS cents
per gallon, whereas tho present
price of wood alcohol made from
wood waste Is about 67 cents. The
invention may encourage manufac
ture .of -wood alcohol from wood
waste in the northwest. However,
Dr. Benson said, cheap power is
tho principal requirement of the
German process, 'and the Pacific
Greater Wost, with Its power re
sources, may become a center of
manufacture of this product by tho
new method.
