 Some months~have been needed for preparation, as it was necessary to se- cure the raw material in the way of cucumberS, tomatoes, caulif1owerS, peppers and other garden products. MT Light raised large quantities hlm- self and interested the farmers about West Milton so that now he is in shape to begin placing his products on the market.
 All the vegetables, fruit, etc., have been placed in large storage vats and barrels in pickling mixture which preserves them almost in the same state as when picked in readiness for the hands of the maker to put up in the several products. The manufac- ture and bottling is done in sanitary manner and strictly in accordance with the pure food laws. All the goods have been grown in this county.
 vor to the goods put up by the Salma- gundi Company and wherever they have been offered to experts for their judgment in every case it has been favorable. Only test of them is nec- essary to convince the most fastidious taste of the high quality. Nothing but the best goods will be put up and nothing of an inferior nature will bear the label of this company. The goods are put up in very attractive bottles with neat Photographic labels.
 While the industry is of modest character at present it is fully expect ed that when the goods are placed on the market and become known there will be a large demand for them, and that next season the company will be obliged to increase it's storage capacity many fold.
 Farmers in this vicinity should be interested in the industry, especially those who have liking, for gardening, as with it's growth will come a large market for garden products of all kinds and market that will be profitable one.
 The above article is taken from The BallstOn Journal, printed at BallStOn Spa, N. Y., where Howard w. Light, who has recently moved into the John Griffin place in Huntingtown, former ly lived. MT Light intends to convert the old button factory at the Griffin place in Huntingtown, just north of the house, into a pickle and vinegar manufactory. Besides putting up all white wine, malt and cider vinegar. If the farmers in this locality will take hold and assist MT Light in raising cucumbers and tomatoes, for which he will pay good prices, he will per 'manently locate here. So it is up to the farmers whether they have new industry permanently. MT Light is a stirring business man and will make a good citizen, and it is hoped he will be able to remain heFe. The writer has personally seen and tested the goods put up by MT Light and can speak in the highest terms of the goods. MT Light invites any to call at his place and see his goods and get acquainted with him, and is ready to contract with the farmers in this locality for all the gherkins, cucumbers and toma- toes they will raise. He has left a sample of the goods he puts up at THE BEE office, which he would be pleased to have any call and see.
