CANNING FACTORY
May Be Established at State School
For Boys.

Supt. Dunn of the State School for
Boys at South Portland, and f. c.
CARL of Augusta, member OF the
board of trustees of that institution
have a project in their minds, the
feasibility of which they have been
discussing, and that is the establish
ment of snail canning factory at
the institution for the purpose of sup
plying that and other charitable and
correctional institutions of Maine.
The matter has been under consid-
GRAFTON for several weeks but they
have not vet submitted ii to the board
of trustees In fact the plans have
not matured sufficiently to take def
mite form, but Mr.. CARL was much
interested in a plan set forth by e.
C. Stagg, secretary of the national
committee on prison labor at the con-
ference of Charities and Corrections.
whereby the labor in State institu-
tons might be used TO supply other
institutions with food, supplies, fur
ni;ure. etc, and at the close of the
address told of his plan to some
friends. In response to inquiry con-
corning details. Mr. Carl said:
You know we have a farm of lS5
acres at the State school and We have
