SEWER PIPE
COMPANY IN SALEM

This industry was established in Sa-
lem in November, 1910. About sixteen
men are employed on a payroll of
about $11O0 a month for labor A
great many teams and men are em-
ployed hauling materials and deliver
ing the product Nearly the entire
output of concrete sewer pipe has
been used in Salem and since the es-
tablishmeLt OF this Industry a saving
Of from twenty-five to forty per cent
has been effected in the cost Of sewer
pipe to the people of this city,
The Salem Concrete Sewer pipe has
been used extensively at Portland and
will probably be used in the construc-
lion Of eighteen miles Of new sewer
at Corvallis, where the specifications
admit concrete sewer pipe upon the
highest engineering authority of o. A.
C. experts.
This kind Of sewer has been in use
in the United States for forty-one
years at Brooklyn, N. Y. and was first
extensively introduced in 1860 in
Paris There are concrete sewers still
in use in the city of Rome that were
built two THOUSAND years ago. Still
older concrete sewers were unearthed
in the ruins of Pompeii. At New Bed
ford, Mass, concrete sewer pipe has
withstood the action of salt water and
freezing and thawing for twenty years
as proof of its durability. Miles Of
concrete sewer pipe have been taken
up in Milwaukee, Wis, to be replaced
with larger dimensions, and found to
be in perfect condition after twenty
years Of use. The court street sewer
in this city, built by Sam Hughes sew
enteen years ago, was given quarter
inch lining of concrete and has with
stood the wear and tear and test Of
sewage and time.
The Salem Concrete Sewer pipe is
made on a machine plan of molding
known as the semi-wet mix. Water is
applied by sprinkling for six days dur
ing the setting process, 1t is believed
that It is the most perfect machine
made sewer pipe in existence.

ed his business until at the present
time he has thirty boats, several
launches and is employing four men.
AS livery, the business is in every

most beautiful rivers in the United
States and a climate to match, there
is no pleasure to Salem people and
visitors, like taking a spin or row on
the murmuring Willamette, That the
people take advantage of these facts is
shown by the report that often as high
as eighty-five boats are put out in a
single day by the company above men
toned.
Mr. Denison is practical boat
builder and has been in the business
some time, in fact he built the first
launch that ever took her maiden glide
into the Willamette. This was some
nine years ago, and since that time
Mr.. Denison has had the honor Of
building the fastest tunnel boat made,
His shop is equipped with the latest
boat building machinery which with
the many fine sawmills in the valley
enables him to build better boats for
less money than his eastern competi-
ton. He takes pride in maintaining
the high standard of his product.

GERMAN BAKERY.

With three delivery wagons on the
jump all the time the bread from the
German Bakery is daily distributed
among the people Of Salem. Lately
the demand for the bread manufpc-
tured in this shop has grown TO such
an extent that Mr.. Brown the pro-
prietor has deemed II advisable to add
several new pieces Of machinery TO his
already well-eQuipped shop. He is
now busily engaged installing his new
bread-mixer and will soon be able TO
fiji all Of his orders When the busi-
ness on Twelfth and Chemeketa
streets was purchased two years ago
but 600 lOaves Of bread was baked
daily, but now 80 great has been the
increase that on an average Of $500
loayes Is the daily output, not TO mem
tion cakes and other pastry. Long
years OF experience have taught Mr..
Brown the inside workings Of the bak-
cry business and all Of his products
are up to standard
Since Salem has such fine array
OF bakers there Is no reason and little
excuse for Salem people eating bread
manufactured at some outside point
and II the local people would be more
loyal TO the local industries, Salem
would soon be the distributing center
for a large portion Of the Willamette
valley.
