Beans in Three Weeks.

The Pleasant Grove Canning
factory is rapidly being shap-
ed into condition for the OBJ
ening campaign which will
commence on beans in about
three weeks from date. Man
ager Miner is authority that
the plant will be in condition
for business before the farm
ers are ready for it.
This week section of the
cement floor has been taken M
and replaced with four foot
piers, to which the floor is
strengthened with steel rein
forcements. This was neces-
sary to support the heavy ma
chinery used in packing.
Five new peeling tables that
Will accommodate 60 girls have
been completed. The Is men
who will be necessary when
the plant is at full blast will
make a total Of IS employees
and even this number may
have to be increased when the
bean and tomato seasons arc
over lap each other.
TIE plant itself is second t.
none in the state for doing r,c
work for which it is intended
but Mr.. Miner says that q
storage warehouse is badly

plete.
A feature about the plant is

Every thing is connected uT
with water. There is also g
modern lavatory, for in the
Pleasant Grove plant compli
ance with every sanitary con
