DEMAND FOR CANNED GOODS
WARRANTS ESTABLISHMENT.
Of PRODUCE
Secretary Decker Gathers Data-Many
Inquiries Received Regarding the.
FieId-veeetab'e and Fruit Yields
Enormous.

From Saturdays Daily.
Data gathered by Secretary Decker
of the Billings chamber of commerce
shows that there are few better open
ings for a canning factory in the Unit
ed States than in this city and judg-
ing from the number of inquiries he is
receiving, it will be but a question of
a short time before such a factory is
established here.
Mr.. Decker found that one grocery
firm in this city purchased during the
past year 1900 cases Of tomatoes,
5000 cases Of corn. like quantities Of
peas and other vegetables and 600
cases Of gallon cans Of apples.
The canned goods were shipped
from Baltimore. Chicago, Colorado and
Utah. The freight rate for canned
goods from Baltimore is 94h cents a
case; from Colorado, 81 cents a case;
from Utah "a cents a case and from
Chicago SO to IS cents a Ease. In car
load lots the rate from Missouri river
points is SO cents a hundred; from Chi
cago $1.18 a hundred and from New
York, via Duluth Sips cents a hum
dred.
No Educational Campaign.
The manager Of one Of the largest
wholesale grocery firms in the city
stated to Mr.. Decker that in the event
of the establishment of a canning fac
tory in this city, his firm would handle
the line probably in load lots for
big shipments and with what the 9TH
er firms will handle, Mr.. Decker be-
lieves that local demand and the de-
mand of the surrounding towns will
warrant the establishment Of a can
ming factory of moderate capacity at
once.
"It will not require an educational
campaign among the farmers to secure
produce for a canning factory" said
Secretary Decker yesterday. "They
are all enthusiastic over the idea al
ready, since truck gardening is most
profitable.
Hoilanders Great Gardeners.
1.-THE hundreds Of 4O-acre tracts on
the Hnntley reclamation project are
especially adapted to truck gardening
and the Hollander settlers, who have,
recently established a big colony on
the Billings bench, are the greatest
truck gardeners in the country.
THE vegetable yields in the Yellow
stone valley compare favorably with
those of any other section of the coun-
try and in many cases exceed the
yields of Colorado.
In my opinion the establishment Of
a canning factory in Billings will simp-
" mean a repetition OF the experience
of Longmont, Colo, where a factory
of moderate capacity was established
a few years ago and at first catered
to local trade only. Now their pro-
ducts are distributed throughout the
southwest.
Picking works could be operated
in connection with the factory to a
good advantage. Already there are
enormous quantities Of cucumbers
raised in this part Of the valley and
the yield is nc surpassed in any por-
ton OF the country.
THE nearest vegetable and fruit
canning factories are in Utah and Col
orado and a factory at Billings should
be able to compete with these very
easily"
