The company erected its plant on Its
present site in October 1909. Steadily
expanding, the factory now covers a
plot 5Ox1O0 feet. Mr.. Gleason said that
only the labor situation stands ahead
of much greater expansion of the COM
pany's business and holdings, pointing
out that there is ample room surround
ing the present building on which to
erect a larger plant,

The average daily output of gloves
at the factory is 800 dozen pairs. These
gloves, neatly ironed, bundled and leb-
eled Cherry Brand Gloves" are distri-
ed principally among retailers on all
parts of the coast.
The plant, when first erected, cost
approximately $1,000. Machinery in use
in the plant cost many thousands of
dollars more.
AT the first of the year the Gleason
Glove company purchased 100000
worth of stock for this years opera

ity of the business done by the com

There's only one thing the matter
with Salem. 1t needs more industries
in which men are employed. AS it is,
most all of the industries here are op-
Grated largely by women, naturally
causing a birth of women workers"
The company's plant operates eight
hours a day, and "A hours a week.
Skilled workers draw enviable salaries
as the scale of pay is guaged by piece
work. Yet, in spite of this, Mr.. Gleason
asserts, the company must turn away
business because of the lack of persons
to turn 1t out,
The process of manufacture Of a
glove is in itself interesting. One doz-
en- gloves are cut into the desired shape

ed on the power machines where dex-
ferrous fingers sew them from unshap-
ely pieces of cloth into ~serviceable
hardware. The gloves are then ironed,
or trimmed as required.

I'm trying to reduce my weight, I'm eating many things |
hate, attempting to grow thin; by following the diet game l
hope to shrink my ample frame, and lose my double chin Iyee
cut out bread. and butter too, and all things sweet, and liquid
glue. and.milk and clotted cream; and while | hope to lose a ton,
the stunt I'm doing is no fun, existence is a scream. Oh, others
seek the grooming board, and whack off vlctuals with a sword,
and eat whateer they please; and they may fill themselves with
jam, indulge in gravy, pie and ham, and forty kinds OF cheese.
And alone must sadly browse on fodder that was meant for cows,
and shun the tempting things; the dinner bell for me no more
brings tiding of good grub in store, it jars me when it rings. The
dwener in the crowded flat, the artisan, the plutocrat, may eat
whate'er they wish; but must boil a mess of stew, or feed on
germproof prlmes and slaw, and cheap denatured fish. And
while the mash of bran is mixed, my eyes are on my waistline fix
ed, and fixed thereon in vain; | do not lose a single pound, |
starve where wholesome pies abound-is weight reduction sane?

that potatoes still in the ground
were selling at $1.S2 peck, and
from Ellicott City, Md, that they

the whole potato market is demora-
lized and that prices are higher than
for many years.
A small crop and the railroad
strike were said to be the principal
reasons for the excessive prices.
Inability to get farm labor is one
reason fer the small crop.
Seed potatoes yesterday were
quoted wholesale at Sc a bushel IN
Baltimore. The price of such potatoes
as the Mccormick and Twentieth
Century variety, fluctuated between
$3.50 and 1920 bushel or 6 to Z
cents a pound.
1t is generally believed, however,
prices soon will return to normal.
The price quoted just before the
railroad strike was 8 1-2 cents a
