The Barada Canning company has started
the season pack, which, from present indl-
cations, will be extra big and of fine
quality. The company has had nine packs,
which have produced 1900 cans. The fact
that Barada is an inland town. eight miles
from a railroad. makes the factory there Of
special interest. The local people bought
the machinery Of the Allen Bros. factory in
Falls City and hauled it twelve miles over
land TO Barada and started up. They have
their pack contracted for 1T 50 cents a
dozen to an Omaha house. The pack OF
tomatoes win be light this year and the
price will be higher than usual.
