Your letter pertaining to the Ameri-

ceived.
My opinion of the merits of the
sanitary products which this company
is putting out can be best shown by
the enclosed paragraph taken from
letter to one of my business friends
in Oklahoma. suggesting that he Sc
cure a plant under this system for
the manufacturing and marketing of
these products.
Enclosed are some documents Of
1.-THE American Paper Can Company on
the manufacture of paper cans. etc.
which / am somewhat interested in
and which it will pay you to look into
IL you are thinking OF taking up a
new enterprise. The CAPITAL required is
small, the profits are large and the
market is almost unlimited. while pop
ular sentiment for sanitary as well as
for edpnomical reasons is forcing the
adoption of this kind of cans and con-
tanners as a substitute for both tin
and glass containers. Through its pat
ents and exclusive machinery for the
manufacture Of paper cans this COM
pany can turn out much better and
a very much cheaper article than any
other concern in this country, and just on
that account Is bound to be big
money maker. Look IL over and IL you
desire full and confidential details
write me and l will send them to you
Thanking you for giving me this
opportunity of expressing myself in
favor of this proposition. I remain.

The Washington
Herald Makes
A Thorough
Investigation.

4 representative of The Washingto on
Herald had occasion recently to dis
cuss with several prominent business
men. the American Paper Can Company.
its plans and its proposition in general.
and found that without exception those
talked to were very enthusiastic over the
company and its future. Many of those
interviewed were men who had invested
money in the company and who had done
so after making most thorough eXami-
nations for themselves. both as to the
standing of those interested in the COM
pany and also the product Of the COM
pany.
In every case they advised The Herald
representative that they had received
most abundant and convincing evidence
that there is a well-niEh universal de-
mand for a reform in the methods OF
packaGing and handling food and other
supplies from the expensive and unsan-
itary glass and tin containers to the
cheaper and perfectly sanitary paraffned
paper containers as now developed and
protected in the United States Patent Of
flee by the American Paper Can Com
pany.
1t has been very conclusively shown
that the American Paper Can Company
through exhaustive study. experimenting
and comparison of the various paper
containers heretofore manufactured, and
the discovery of the causes of their i'm
Projections, has at large expense and
much time devised and protected a par
affined. sanitary paper can and the me-
chanical devices for its manufacture
which represents the highest state Of the
art Of paper container production

BROkER,

BROh Elk,
New York City.
During the last two or three years
my attention has been directed, at diff
ferent times, to the industry of paper
packages. one time containers, etc. In
looking over the field it is my opinion
that the single service cans and pack
ages of the American Paper Can Com
pany will prove to be the one accept
ed for general use throughout the
country. l believe that it covers all
that has been looked for and all that
can be expected. I believe that the
field for its use is practically unlimited.
Supplying the demand and to establish
uniformity of distribution is. l think.
the serious point.
IF other important business matters
and contracts to which / was bound
had not demanded my time, | should
not, after my investigation. have hest
tated one moment. in securing the
rights for this paper can, to establish
the business of manufacturing through
out the entire United States / have
known and done business with Mr.. Frank

In regard to the product manufactured
by the American Paper Can Company. Of
Washington, ID. c., | wish to state that
they make one of the most neritorious
articles for the sanitary handling Of food,
and other products. that has ever been
placed on the market.
The One-time-usc paraffined paper can
has met with instant favor. Public Opn
ion is aroused 10 its advantages and con-
slant agitation by health authorities and
others interested in the proper pack
aging of food products. is bringing about
the pure food laws and rapidly COM
pelling food deliveries in liquid-prUof
sanitary paper containers to be used one
time. then thrown away.
The American Paper Can Company are
also manufacturers of other paper prod
ucts and they are fast coming into gen
eral use on account or their sterling
worth.
Their Parcel Post Egg Containers are
conceded to be the best for that purpose
that have ever been put on the market.
They also manufacture a folding paper
berry box and also paper baskets for the
handling of peaCh hes, plums and grapes.
They are the original manufacturers of
new improved cheap and serviceable

wide field of use. Yours very truly.

The Herald
Believes A
Plant for
Each Populous
Center a Necessity

Already number of plants are under
construction in different sections of the
country for the manufacture of the prod
uits OF this company. Those who have
gone into the matter thoroughly have
not hesltated to say that the esablish-
ment of plant for the manufacture of
the American Paper Can Company's con-
tainers affords one of the safest surest.
most permanent. and profitable manufac-
turing enterprises.
The sanitary liquid paper Container has
come and come to stay. The people
have grown to understand that IL lis a
ridiculous waste of money to pay three
or four times as much for glass or tin
containers for use in transient deliveries
or foodstuffs when paraftined paper cans
VIII do the work every way as well and
economically and sanitariIy far better
Moreover. foodstuffs packaged in the
sanitary paper containers have a great
advantage over foods packaged in other
containers. such as tin and glass, which
as packaging material are always
source of danger. In short. the paraf-
fined sanitary paper can is the ideal
container for pure food.
1t is well-known fact that the con.
tents of many species of metal-canned
goods, when opened must be at once
come spoiled. This removal is unneces-
sary with foods packaged in sanitary
paper cans. since these cans are abso-
lutely without any concentrating effect
upon the contained foodstuff This means
that there will be no worry over spoiled
food when the paraffined paper cans are
used.
1t is impossible to compute or TO COM
prehend the stupendous number of pack
ages which will be used to bring about
the above conditions, but some small
lea Of the immensely of the number
may be arrived at, by considering the
number of packages for but two of the
many products for which these packages
are especially desirable.

Replying to your inquiry of the
Sth inst, regarding the American Pa
per Can Companys products, the sub
jet appeals strongly TO me in it's re-
lation to moving supplies TO the home
from bulk to broken package.
This question is of such Importance
and has so many ramifiCatiOnS, that |
fear you would need. for lack of space,
to blue pencil" great part of what
should be said in favor of this en-
terprise.
The tendency of the times expressed
through the growing needs of the pub
lie, is economy combined with practical
efficiency and strict sanitation.
The package, or Container. is indeed
an important feature.
A comparative examination of the
American Paper Can Company's prod
uct and its process of manufacture. is
a self-evident fact. and the needs for
such containers is even more evident
around. but now comes the all import
supply and introduction of this product
in an effective way.
The deal needed back OF it is To
procure supply where needed with
out overburdening by mislOcated or
installed Ccnters of production and
distribution. Yours very truly.

A representative Of The
Washington Herald
Talks With One of the Inventors.

A representative of The Herald recent
ly had OCCASION to discuss with one
of the inventors of the perfect paper
can. which is constructed by the Ameri-
can Paper Can Company. and after
thoroughly demonstrating his product.
made this statement:
The paper cans now being made by
other companies are assembled recep-
tacles, making them expensive to manu-
facture Furthermore, the paper from
which other cans are made is shrinkable.
which naturally must produce an inferior
can. But the demand for them Is SO
great that merchants and packers are
compelled to purchase them. though we'll
aware they are not entirely satisfactory.
The can We make is such a great i'm
provement on those now in use that 1t
will insure still greater demand with
more satisfactory results.
Our paper can is superior to all others
for the following reasons:
The covers, both top and bottom, are
manufactured from one single piece of
material, and the deep recesses formed
around the rims make it far superior
to others. Another and very important
advantage is that our covers support both
the inside and outside walls of the can,
which is found in no other container,
and is the foundation for the above as
sertion relative to rough usage.
Being manufactured from one piece
there can be much larger output, and
ones The assembled top, though it be
made from the same grade of material
as ours. is yet a much more expensive
article. because of the amount of mate
rial it requires, and the time consumed
in manufacturing it
"A further improvement on our lid or
cover is the triple lock effect, an indented
ring or bead around both the barrel and
the cover. which fit into one another.
This is needed only in the larger sizes
The aforesaid indentations around the
lids also enable them to be used very ad-
vantageously as covers for mailing tubes,
for which there is great demand
Our tops and bottoms when used
alone without the accompanying barrels,
make very desirable containers in the
smaller sizes
There is a demand for larger and
stronger paper containers than those now
on the market. We are prepared to
meet that demand. BY the added i'm
proVement of d reinforcement of the re-
ceptacle our machinery can turn out
strong and large containers
The reinforcement Is accomplished by
means of wire hoop around the barrel
and bottom fitted into the indentations
or beads, and another at a desired dis
lance from the top with a handle at
tached at the hoop. This makes the can
far more substantial and leaves nothing
to be desired as far as convenience and
are concerned for handling the |
heavier or bulkier products, such as |
paints, varnishes, putty, leads, etc.
The inventions of the American Pa |
per Can Company are such that there !
Will be no limit to the demand for ,
the containers. They are so perfect !
that no room is left for improvements |
The simplicity of their construction is !
such that they can be manufactured at a
cost which, while leaving a large mar
gin of profit, will make competition
impossible"

consider that the company has perfected
a satisfa Glory and effectual device for the
manufacture of paper receptacles and
that there is particularly unlimited
demand for the product.
1t is my opinion that the product can

margin Of profit and that its merits will
create demand for it that will make the
operating individual operating units valu-
able and which will return a large profit
to the controlling company. Yours very

Your letter of inquiry as to my
knowledge of the products of the
American Paper Can Company prompts
me to say that until l made the fol-
lowing test that had my doubts as
to the cold penetrating the paper can
when iced to keep milk at proper
temperature. To convince myself
filled one of the cans with city water,
in the month of August at a temper
allure of % degrees; | then placed the
ca n in 4 bucket of water and placed
Il brick on top of it to keep il up
right: | then covered it with cracked
ice, placed the bucket in a cold stor-
age room at a temperature of IS de-
grees. In twenty -four hours to the min
ute ! removed the can and took the
temperature of the water and found
it had fallen to thirty-eiEht degrees.
then put the can filled with same
water hack into the bucket with the
brick on top of it and filled the bucket
TO overlooking with water and placed
the bucket in one corner of the stor,
age room and let it remain for six
weeks to test the quality of the bot
tie
ON my return from my vacation
at the end of the six weeks | took the
can out of the bucket. emptied the
water out of the can and dried il in
the sun. then refilled il with water.
placed the lid back on il and il was
just good as at first. not Il drop OF
water leaked from it. This convinced
me that the American Paper Can Com
pany's paraffined One-service paper
containers would not only keep the
milk cold. but would stand icing as
well. which would not he so severe
