CANNERY is A SUCCESS
About 100000 Boxes of Strawberries
Put Up at Olympia Plant

OLYMPIA.-Close to 1000 crates
of Strawberries have been received
during this, the first season at the
cannery here of the National Can
ming company. That means around
100000 boxes of the fruit, for which
the growers were paid cash at the
rate of 81 crate. All these berries
have gone into this seasons pack
The season is drawing to a close, but
for both the cannery and producers il
has proved profitable.
A couple of times the cannery pre-
vented a glut in the local market and
a consequent crash of prices to the
producers. At one time the local
market threatened downward to SO
cents per crate. The cannery stepped
into the breach, taking all the berries
that could be offered at the estab-
lished rate of 81.
Since the opening of the canriery
the number of women pickers and
sorters employed at the cannery has
averaged from 40 to 80. In addition
to these the payroll includes about Ii
employees in the office, engine room
packing and shipping departments.
With the raspberry and loganberry
season rapidly approaching the can
merry management is notifying pro-
ducers of an advance in prices to be
paid at the plant of cents per pound
for raspberries and cents for To-
ganberries, crates to be furnished by
the cannery.

He has also some idea Of the cannery

out of California, for example In his

Excellent Trout Fishing

Charles B. Humbert James Slavin
and Homer quinn returned Sunday
evening from an enjoyable and sue
the Little Klickitat. where they had
their camp 90 miles westward from
Soda Spring. They were absent five
days and report that never in their
lives had they seen trout fishing so
easy. Within 20 minutes after ma
king camp two of the party had
caught % beauties. One thing hap
pened on the trip that will never be
forgotten. 1t is an unwritten law
among campers that no one Is al
lowed to kick on account of the ac-
commodat atoms. such as cooking.
sleeping. etc. Mr.. Slavin violated that
law and was punished. He made a
number of objections on account of
his bed not being as soft and downy
as that upon which he had been ac-
customed to sleep. Camping at Soda
Springs on Saturday night. on the
return trip, the other two members
OF the party, as a punishment to Mr..
Slavin, made up nice soft bed for
him. Hereafter Mr.. Slavin will hest
tate a long while before he raises any
objections on account of a paucity of
mattress or blanket either under or
over him. Alr. Humbert had one
marrow escape from accident. as he
slipped from a log and was nearly
precipitated Is feet into the water
and onto the rocks in the river bed.

Prosser Man Is Hurt


VIII Matthews Of RattIesnake,
while returning home last Saturday
night from charivarie met with a
serious accident. The horse he was
riding took fright and ran away and
dashed into a fence. Matthews seems
to have been thrown clear over the
fence and when later found he was
unconscious. There were no frac-
lures, no marks or cuts to be found
on the body. At times he would get
up and move about, but apparently
did not know what he was doing. He
is gradually recovering, although at
last reports he had not gained full
consciousness.--Pro Independent.

business man reported it as his opin-

large proportion of the ranchers
were in the city without any special
reason for their coming. He further
says that he notices the ranchers do
not remain in the city as was their
wont. They now come by one of the

transact their business and get away
for home again as soon as possible
without wasting time in visiting as
they did when trip to the city was
