ically sealed, and then two of the ram

made a to stand the wear and tear of
ocean transportation, and when cars

to move forward to the front.
Other Contracts in View
When Quartermaster General Ooc
thnls first called for bids fur army
supplies, he also called for submission
of bids on dehydrated onions, carrots

the 20,llim,fU( pounds of beans com
mandeered in California.

Other Factories for Salem
Negotiations are now pending look
ing to the establishment in .Salem, be
sides the new starch factory, a furni
ture factory, as well as a box factory,
as the small box factory now in Salem
cannot take care of tho business of out
laree concern alone, and it is compeh-
'to po clsewUerc for its boxes, not only
because the capacity here is limited,
but, strange us it may seem, the pric
es elsewhere obtained are very much
'loss than the prices made by the home
factory.
Time alone will tell the story.
