Our correspondent from "west OF
the river" reported rumor last week
that some one is thinking of starting
a canning factory in lola. 1t is to be
hoped the ramor may prove true, for
such an institution is what our town
needs and what it would support.
Other towns in the State have such
establishments and in every case,
80 far as we know, thay have proved
good investments. There is every
reason to believe that such would be
the case with one located here, as
there are certainly as many facilities
for carrying on the business here as
at any other point in the State. !
There is money ia it for the man who |
understands his business. Any one
who is contemplating such an enter
prise, however, should make il known
at once, so that farmers and garden /
ers could make arrangements for rails
fng larger quantities of vegetables than |,
usual. Otherwise the supply would
fail short. Given assurance Of q good /
market for all that they can raise.
