GRUMPY HAS sle CORN PACK,
Canning Company At Grundy Center
0,s<s ~ 20 7S9 r..>.


Puts up s2,752 Cases.
GTundy Center, Oct THE Grun-
dy Canning Company closed their
seasons pack last week. The pack
this year amounted to 32.752 cases
which is some more than last year
and the quality Is said to be superior
to that Of last year.
While the acreage was not as large
this year, the yield was better as
the amount packed would indicate.
The average yield per acre was
four tons, and there were instances
where 1t went as high as seven tons
to the acre.
1t was a good year for the farmers
that raised corn for the factory and
so far as we have learned all were
satisfied.
E,1a factory is now making sor-
ghum and may can a few pumpkins
before closing down for the season.
