Mrs. Emma Y. McAlpine, proprietor
OF the Pennington canning factory,
spent the night in the city and de-
parted this morning on her way to
Elmer. N. j., to see her aged mother,
who is seriously Ill. Her stay will
depend on the condition of her moth
er. Mrs. McAlpine is happy over the
prospects for large business this
season. The fruit crop is all that
could be desired and she has ordered
some new machinery to increase the
capacity of the plant. She has or
dered the tins for the cans and they
will soon arrive. She will miss the
cherry and strawberry crops this
year, but hopes to can some of these
fruits next season. After all other
demands are supplied there are no
cherries left for the canning factory.
Not enough strawberries are raised
to allow for canning, either. This, as
is well known, Is not that they can
not be, but rather because the farm
ers and fruit raisers are all raising
something else, and it was necessary
to ship some berries in from the out
side this summer. 1t was suggested
that there would be golden oppor-
tunity for some one to plant more
cherry trees and strawberry vines
Mrs. McAlpine said there had been
just lots and lots of cherry trees set
out this year, and the strawberry
acreage would also be greatly increas-
ed next year, but that there would
probably be greater demand than
supply for long time yet. Last sea
son about 40 girls and women found
employment in the canning factory
and this year the number will prob
ably be increased.
