PACK|NG INDUSTRY
BACK TO NORMAL
WILSON DECLARES
Pre-War Prices Prevail
and Exports Vastly
Increased

Chicago, Oct. 9.-The meat pack
ing business has returned to normal
cy and the industry, 'the largest sin
gle enterprise in the United States
if not the world, is in better position
today, despite present problems.
than it has been for. several years
according to Thomas E. Wilson,
president of the Institute Of Ameri-
can Meat Packers, in addressing that
Organization in the 18th annual con-
iyention here today.
Wholesale meat prices have re-
turned to pre-war figures and meat
values have become virtually stable,
/ the speaker said.
A half billion-doIlar increase in ex-
ports, equivalent to a 10 per cent
shrinkage in values in three-year
period, ard q billion and quarter
decrease in poundage, or 40 per cent,
indicates the tremendous readjust-
ment of the industry, Mr.. Wilson
said.
The institute IS Expected to take
action tomorrow on a platform for
the ultimate establishment of ma
tional education institution, offering
specialized collegiate instruction to
young men intending to- enter the
packing business, and correspondence
} and extension courses for those al
ready engaged in the business, as
we'll as the founding of technical
research institute and an industrial
museum.
Statistics presented by Mr.. Wilson
showed that the wholesale price of
the best grade of beef at Chicago for
the week of September 80, 1919, was
I23.5 cents a pound compared with
I17.5 for the week of September so,
this year; carcass veal was 29.5
against IT'S cents; pork loins 38
against % cents; leaf lard ~ COM
pared with 12; spare ribs 10 against
II cents, and smoked hams 34,8
against 23.5 cents.
He submitted figures to show that
animals slaughtered under inspection
from January to August l, in 1918,
1921 and 1929, compared as follows:
Cattle, 3,S49,9S1 nj 1918; 4,216,755
in 1921; 4,598,2O7 in 1922. Sheep,
T. 100000 in 1918; 7,O8O,8OS in 1921;

1918; 23,909, $50 in 1921; 24,617378
in 1929.
The annual production of the pack
ing business, Mr.. Wilson said, con-
stitutes about seven per cent Of the
value Of the aanual production of all
industries in the United States.

OEAR|NG HOTEL

Jordan Hancock Will Be
New Manager Famed

Jordan Hancock, for the last few
years manager Of the Economy Gro
Gerry Co., has assumed the manage
ment of the Kupperbusch hotel, chang
ed back to it's famous old name from
that of "Dearing Hotel" by which it
has been known during the lease of
O. D. Dearing, the retiring manager.
In assuming the management the
first thing Mr.. Hancock did was to
change the name, and at daybreak
this morning the famous old sign was
hanging back in the same place il
had hung for so many years. 81

Mr.. Hancock came to Palatka about
twelve years ago to make his for

groceries and since that time his rise
has been steady and upward. He is
experienced also in the fresh meat

him for his new duties.
Mr.. Dearing retired from the nan

NEW 'COLLAPS|BL
BARREL MACHINE
PALATKA PRODUCT
Corporation Formed to
Manufacture Machine
to Erect Barrel
CUTS COST IN HALF
Promises Of Tremendous
Industries for This
City

| With the completion of a success
full and practical machine for the as
sembling of collapsible barrel, on
which a patent has been secured, two
important industries are now certain
for Palatka, one, the McClenny-Bar-
din corporation, to manufacture the
machine, and the other the Bardin &
! Roberts Co., which will manufacture
barrels with some of these machines.
This is considered one of the most
important announcements made in
! PaIatka's manufacturing life in many
years.
During the last decade many in
ventive geniuses have struggled to
make a collapsible barrel, but all of
them have been more or less fail
ure B. H. Bardin, well-known local
imachinist, has been working on his
machine for the last two years, and
recently completed it, secured his
patents and during the last few
weeks has been busily engaged in or
ganizing the company for manufac-
turing the assembling machine. He
has succeeded in securing what cap
ital is needed, and it is not probable
that any stock will be placed on the
market.
The machines are at present being
manufactured at the plant of the Pa
latka Foundry & Machine works, for
merly the Standon foundry This
concern will increase it's capacity,
whenever needed, to take care of the
demand which, from present indica-
tions, will be very large. Mr.. Bardin
stated this morning that orders for
sixteen machines had already been
received.
To Establish Barrel Factory.
In ddition to manufacturing the
machines here Mr.. Bardin has asso-
ciated with him Q. l. Roberts, we'll
known naval stores operator and
capitalist of Putnam Hall. They
have just purchased the Walton
property on Second street next to
Lilly's garage, and formerly used as
a livery stable, and will Immediately
erect large barrel factory there,
where the mex barrel will be manu-
factured. This firm will have no
connection with the corporation
which is to manufacture the barrel
making machinery.
Mr.. Bardin said this morning that
the barrel can be manufactured for
considerably less than the slaves can
be bought for the old barrels, and
that while slaves now cost approxi- !
mately $3.50 per thousand, he can
manufacture on a basis of So, using
the veneer stave, which is smoother |
inside, and affords vast saving in
freight for the reason that a collap- |
sible barrie will occupy about one
tenth the space that completed one
will.

for 100000 barrels" was the star
Ting announcement Mr.. Bardin made |
this morning, "and are receiving in
quiries from all over the country, |
from potato, apple, onion and other
growers. The new barrel will be |
much smoother inside than the old |
thick-stave barrel, will not weigh as
much and can be used the second |

position of the allies on the Turkish

The Mundania conference is being
resumed under the new instruction
framed at the Paris meeting, which
were approved with slight changes
by the cabinet Saturday night and
forwarded to Brig. Gen. Harrington.
The delegates were instructed to in

was paid should be divided equally among the people
of United States each person would receive some
what from the proceeds than the wages of window
cleaner New York. He didn't say exactly how much
was it hardly seemed worth while to inquire
certainly the amount wouldn't make anybody violent
ly wealthy.
Since that time careful study has been made by
the national of economic research of the national
income This study shows that sc cent of the in

the income of $4,000 year should be divided
among sc cent each would receive less than
5000 additional Now gentleman dealing with
statistics in the Worlds Work show that if family
could manage to $4,000 during it's of greatest
prosperity and invest it in treasury savings certificates
would add to it's income than would to it
by dividing the total income of all those getting
