MANCHUR|A BECOMING A FLOUR MILLING
CENTER

During a recent tour of northern
Manchuria, Consul General Thomas
Sammons. of Newchwang, found that
the capacity cf tine 20 flour mills in
that part of China had an output of
upward of 5000 poods, or apprcxi-
mately 1850 barrels per day. Mr..
Sammons furnishes the following
particulars Df that flour trade:
At Harbin, where there were six
large and six small flour mills, the
output was estimatrl at $4,000
poods t36 pounds to the pood) per
day. This industry was established
by Russian business men ard is
growings 1t was found that the wheat
crop surpasses that of the bean pro-
ducts in marketable value, and that
as a result Chinese farmers were, in
many instances. giving up the raising
Of beans and going into the wheat
producing business.
Cloth flour sacks are purchased by
Manchurian flourmill operators In
lots of from $4,000 to 100000. The
American cotton sack is used. These
sacks are not. as a rule, printed in
attractive colors, together with the
name of the various brands, ETC.. as
in this country. The brand and fire.
quently the name of the miller is
stamped on the sack by hand Many
OF the mills are operated continuous
ly by three shifts, each shift being
on the basis of one Ruaqion to fo,ir
Cinnamon.
The cost of wheat following the
war ranged high. being 65 kopeckS 1
per pood, or about 1 gold cent per
pound. The normal price was given
as so kopecks per pood: total esti-
mated cost per pood, rs kopeckks, 90
kopecks per pood being for labor. 1t
was estimated that 65 per cent Of
wheat was saved in flour and that
the balance sold for so per cent of the
cost Of the wheat--that is, at from %
to 33 kopecks per pood. There was
no waste. Everything is utilized.
The wood used for fuel increating
steam power in the mills was consid-
cred excessively high, fuel being
scarce.
The Russian mill hands were paid
co and Chinese helpers IS roubles
per month, equivalent to approx
mately $40 and 50 gold. With two
Russian and eight Chinese helpers to
each eight-hour shift, one mill turn
ed out in the neighborhood Of 1900
pools of SO pounds each per day.
East Oregonian : E.O. (Pendleton, OR) 1888-current, 1907-04-03

The flour thus being manufactured
was being sold at wholesale at from
80 to 95 cents gold per pood of So
pounds and at retail at from So cents
to 81 per pood of SO pounds.
The millers complained of the
high cost of wheat and the fall
ing price offered for the flour and
by-products. During the war high
prices prevailed and profits were re-
ported satisfactory, but with decreas-
ing demands and a continuance of
wartime prices for wheat the flour
manufacturing business was, it was
stated, unsatisfactory. Still, new
flour mills were contemplated, and
those already established were be-
ing enlarged in some instances. Rus
sian flour manufacturers stated that
they realized that they must adjust
their business methods so as to sue
coed or small profits by increasing
their sales.
