RidenOur-Baker Grocery Co. Make
an Important Addition to
Their Business.

The wholesale grocery firm, Ridenour-
Baker Grocery Co., has bought the four
story building at 1870 Union avenue and
lifted 1t up with machinery exclusively
devoted to the preparation of coffee, sePe-
rating, cleaning and roasting. This es-
tablishment is the largest of its kind in
Kansas City, and thousands OF pounds of
coffee are handled every day. The ma.
chinery is run by an improved Corliss en-
gine and the house from top to bottom
is one bewildering lot of shafts, elevators,
belts and revolving wheels.
The coffee beans, when received directly
from the grower, are mixed with hulls,
sticks and gravel, and it is for the purpose
OF eliminating from the coffee this tras b
that these enterprising business men have
set in operation this coffee plant, as it is
termed. The coffee requires but one
handling to go into these machines just
as 1t comes from the plantation. and
comes out cleaned, graded, roasted, glaze
and ground IL necessary. There is q big
bin on the second floor into which the
c Dffee is poured and thence elevated by
means of buckets, such as are employed
In handling grain, to the floor above,
where it goes into q separator, much like
the inner works of a threshing machine,
Then 1t goes into an immense whirling
cylinder, called a polishing machine
where it is whirled around until the gree n
beans fairly shine. From here it goes
down to the roaster on the second floor.
II the old ladies' who used to roast their
coffee in the cooking stove oven could see
these machines, which hold three hun.
dred pounds each, they would no doubt
be dumfounded. There are four of these
roasters. and they are kept running all
day long.
When the coffee is done they empty 1t
into great cooling pans, into which a cold
blast of air is turned lest the heat of the
beans overlook them. The coffee when
cool Is placed In a hopper beneath a hol-
low shaft, through which q strong cur
rent OF air is impelled by fast revolving
fan, and up this shaft the roasted coffee Is
carried by the air. and any stones remain
ing In 1t are left behind.
The firms steady increase in business
has made this immense concern necessary
in order to be able to supply good grade
Of coffee to the trade. The Ridenour- Ba.
ker Grocery Co. has been doing busins. 8
in this vicinity for more than thirty fiI Q
years, and for sixteen years in Kans. g
City. and their house is now the largest
