To Build Pickle Factory.

A meeting was held at the Commercial Club rooms here today to discuss a prop osition looking to the establishment of a pickle factory and canning plant by Iowa parties in this district. The meeting was attended by members of the Commercial Club and about twenty-three trucksters and small farmers from the section of fifteen or twenty miles from Birmingham. The Iowa parties want about five acres of land donated to them in this place and desire the farmers or trucksters to plant about three hundred acres in cucumbers to warrant them making the investment in the district The trucksters do not take so well to the plan inasmuch as the open market Is more profitable than a canning plant or 8 pickle factory but the farmers desire such market as they be- lieve that such a market will be more profitable than growing cotton or corn. More than three hundred acres of pickles have been promised and the land will be donated. A representative of the Iowa parties Is looked to coming to this sec tion in the next few weeks to make def mite plans for the construction of such an institution as mentioned.
