THE CANNING INDUSTRY,

There is one Branch of it that is not Neg-
Iected in Camden.
Editor CHRONICLE;
/ read with much interest your article
regarding the erection of factory for
canning the fruits which grows abund-
antly in our county.
/ think it capital idea, for there are
thousands of bushels of apples, peaches,
pears, cherries, and other fruits in this
section that are allowed to decay and be
eaten by hogs which could be made
source of great revenue by canning and
placing them on the market.
But, whilst we so sadly neglect the
fruit interests, yet there is branch of the
canning industry here that has been care-
fully nurtured and which continues to
thrive and develop, to wit-the canning
of dogs.
1t gives life and vigor to Young
America and the business men to see so
many nice cans we'll filed with rocks)
being handled in such business-like
manner toward the depot behind well
fed thoroughbred cur dog.
The latest addition to this industry
that l have had the pleasure OF witness
ing was the canning of 'yaller" cat.
Like a brave and chivalric soldier he
stood the test until left alone with nature
and natures god when suddenly realizing
his condition he let out down back
alley with the speed of the wind scream
ing for his sweetheart maria"
Hoping that the canning industries
may continue to develop.
l am yours for improvement.
