CANNEKY MATTERS.

A special meeting of the board
of trade was held Wednesday
evening for the purpose of dis
cussing the feasibility of forming
a stock company and raising
means to build cannery at Cor
Wallis. Mr.. I. o. Scougall, of Ore,
gon City, who has had fifteen
years. experience in the canning
business has been in the city look
ing over the grounds with view
to taking some stock should the
enterprise materlalize, and was
present at the meeting of the
board last evening and gave his
views as to the cost of building
and operating cannery capable
of turning out 500 cases of canned
goods per day, the number of
hands required to run it during
the canning season, the market for
the goods, the prices that could
be paid for fruit and vegetables,
the acreage that would be required
to supply such cannery. There
seemed to be great deal of in
terest taken in this enterprise and
we hope ere another season rolls
around to see first-class cannery
in full operation in Corvallis, as it
would be of great benefit to this
community, especially to the farm
ers, who ought to subscribe liberal
ly to such an enterprise. But
those who take lead in this matter
should be careful not to make
mistake by starting in on a small
amount of capital, for a carnery
on small scale will not pay and
will only be a detriment to the
community. In order to build
and operate a cannery as it should
be through the first season it will
require from $4,000 to 100000
in ready cash. Of course it will
not take near this sum to build a
cannery; perhaps one-fourth Of
that amount would be enough for
this purpose, but it takes the cash
to buy cans, fruit, vegetables, pay
employees, etc. But this is not a
large sum when the benefits Of
such an establishment are con-
sidered, which have already been
discussed in the columns of the
GAZETTE. The cannery should be
built and in operation by next
season.
