The canning plant opo1ated by the
horticultural department of the uni
versity has been moved from its old
quarters in Morrill, hall to the by-pro-
ducts house where more room is avail
able for storing fruits and garden pro-
ducts.
The opening of operations at the
plant has been delayed this summer
through the failure of the shipment of
cans to reach Moscow. The cans were
ordered early in the spring but reach
ed the city only this week. The can
ming of cherries and early berries will
commence at once and other fruits and
garden products will be handled in
season throughout the remainder of
the summer and fall.
Professor C. G. Vincent, under whose
direction the plant is being operated,
extends an invitation to all who SO
desire to inspect its work. The by
products experiments have been un-
dertaken for the primary purpose OF
solving the problems of the small home
grower who ordinarily premits much
of his orchard and garden produce to
be wasted because it cannot find
market in it's green state.

system of canning" said Professor
Vincent they will not only be able
to utilize every ounce of their garden
and archard products but they will
even be induced to grow these products
| on a more extensive scale" To il
lustrate his point professor Vincent
cited a recent experiment that he made
on the university farm. Corn, beans,
peas. tomatoes and other small garden
produces were planted on half-acre
plats and as they came into season
every possible effort was made to dis
nose of them in their green state.
Some were sold in the local markets
and some were shipped to outside
points but the greater portion of the
crop found no market at all and was
utterly wasted. Much that was sold
had to be put on the market at un-
profitable prices. Under the canning
system the same fruits are now grown
on the varsity farm and sold at great
profit. Not only that but they find
ready market.
The canning plant is arousing con-
siderable interest in the farmers In the
vicinity of Moscow and will undoubt-
edly offer a very feasible solution OF
one of their hardest market problems.

breezes waited from the nearby noun

Another matter of park improve
ment which will probably be consider
ed at the next auxiliary meeting is the
permanent lighting of the bandstand.
From many sources have come re-
quests that the bandstand be remodel
ed and better lighted in order that the
evening concerts may be held in the
park instead of on the street At the
present time many people do not at
tend the concerts because there are no
seats provided and standing on hard
pavement for an hour or more offsets
all the pleasure of the evenings music.
The auxiliary will take up the matter
of installing permanent lighting sys
tenn in the bandstand and will request
the city council to order the work
done within the next week or two.
