TN every vacant lot in a city and all over
the great dumping places wherever holes
and hollows are being filed in, you may
count anywhere from half a dozen to half
a thousand old tin cans. 1t is very seldom
these are buried, for the ever busy rag pick
ers or junk dealers gather them up and pack
them away in barrels until they have car
load or so, when they ship them away.
There are several concerns that buy these
old tin cans, regardless of shape or size or
condition. The battered tin can, the can
that had been run over by train or dented
with workman's pick is just as valuable
to these concerns as the bright new can
undented.
All these old cans are dumped into a great
furnace where the heat hrst melts off the
tin. Although it should be remembered that
