TWO CANNING
FACTORIES TO
BE OPERATED
BY new LOCAL FIRM SOON
One to Be Built Here and
One at Plains

Within a short time two more well
equipped canning plants will be added
to the number that have already made
Americus and Sumter county known as
one of the canning centers of the
state.
One of the two new factories is to
be established near Americus, and one
is to be built at Plains. Mr.. w, M.
Crook, of Americus, and Mr.. ]. l..
Goss, who came here recently from
South Carolina, are partners in the
project to establish the new plants.
their desire is to establish a large
plant at Plains and a smaller one near
Americus.
The plant to be established at Plains
will be a comparatively small one at
first, as the plan is to increase its
capacity as the supply of materials
received in the way of fruits and veg
etables may dictate. At first it will
have capacity of about 5000 cans per
day. This will be increased as the
business warrants.
The plant near Plains will be locat,
ed upon Mr. Crooks estate there,
while the site for the local plant has
not yet been chosen. Both plants will
be ready for operation when the sea
son opens here, as preparations to-
ward that end are now being made
Work upon them will be commenced
within two weeks after Mr. Goss re-
turns from a trip to South Carolina.
The products canned will include
peaches, tomatoes, potatoes, beans, ok
ra, peas and other vegetables which
are handled in that manner here. All
products will be handled in clean,
satisfactory manner, so that they will
command ready market. Mr.. Goss
said yesterday that the local field is
very inviting one for a canning fac
tory.

A volume of church history which
is of special interest here is that
which has just been compiled by Rev
James B. Lawrence, rector of Calvary
Episcopal church, the volume having
Just been issued from the publishers
to be ready for distribution here after
today.
Neatly bound in red cloth, with pa
per and typographical work that is
neat and attractive, the volume is one
that is pleasing to the eye and invites
perusal The large type and wide
margins add other desirable features
to the mechanical makeup of the vol
ume which go to form whole that 81
in itself splendid recommendation
1t is seen at a plance that the author
has spared no pains in making his
volume as complete and inclusive as
the material at hand would permit,
more inclusive, in fact, than volume
which essays to deal with the history
of Calvary church alone, as the title
indicates, would warrant But the sur,
plus matter included usually possesses
an interest and relationship to the gen.
eral subject that makes it worthy OF
consideration.
The division of the history of Cal
vary church into four sections, each
representing the growth of the church
under the four bishops of the diocese
since the church's establishment, is an
excellent manner in which to con-
slider its historical development MI
Lawrence has made no pretense of at
tempting anything other than a COM
pilation of the records at hand which
deal with the history of the church.
In this respect he has achieved a suc-
cess which is commendable, as the re-
suits of his painstaking work is seen

exhausted these available sources and
has placed every fact rocerdod in the
volume easily accessible by means OF
the various indexes and appendices
which he has prepared.
The history of the church from its
establishment to the present day will
prove Of vital interest to the men,
oers of the congregation and to the
people of Americus. The work has
been done with such thoroughness that
1t would seem that no salient event has
escaped the historians dragnet Ger
talnly the value of the book to t he
registrar of the diocese and to the
officials of the church generally will
be great and lasting, as it is seldom
fAat a church has had done for it the
notable work which has been accom-
pllshed for Calvary church by Mr.
Lawrence in his role as an historian.
