HIGHWAY WORK
State Highway Between Lady

By Injunction

That an attempt may be made to
prevent the expenditure of the thirty
odd thousands of dollars county money
on the so-called federal highway be-
tween Ladysmith and Bruce, by i'll
junction, is a possibility, according to
"A report in circulation this week. If
the proceedings by the county board in
the matter were strictly legal, any or
der to enjoin the clerk and chairman
from drawing orders for payment
could only be temporary. However, it
would attract attention to the tax re-
duction campaign. which may be the
real object.

MAY OPERATE
PEA CANNERY
Depends On Cooperation of
GrOwers.-Price of Peas Ac-
cOrding to Grade

1t is known that one of the Fame
Canning Co. plants will be operated
this season. namely, the one at Cum
hcrland. and at this time they are CON
tracing for their acreage at the same
price for their green peas as they paid
last season, with small charge extra
for their seed. On account of the lOyG
market at this time and the Over-prO-
ductiOn of last year, every Gamer i'll
the country is demanding that fancy
peas be delivered 10 their factory.
However in making this demand Of
course the growers will receive the
high price for their peas, and unless
will be paid according to grade when
received at the factory. 1t is the same
condition prevailing in the pea cam
ming industry as in other Industries
that everyone is demanding quality for
their money, and in order that the can
ming plants dispose of their product
they necessarily must pack quality
peas in order to compete with other
Gamers.
There is a possibility Of the Fame
Canning Company operating one more
Of their plants, but they have plants
in Michigan and Indiana as we'll as
Wisconsin, and in deciding which plant
they will operate everything will be
taken into consideration, and very
much depends upon the growers as to
the way they will cooperate with their
plant located in their town. and need
less to say the plant which seems best
located for financial returns will be
the one operated.
Within the next few weeks it will
be definitely known whether or not the
I.adysmith plant will operate this sea-
son. and if the growers Of this COM
munity want this industry to continue
it will be up to them to do their part
towards keeping it alive.
