GLENDALE
Cannery Should Be ReOpened

MdTylduu mas not Deeu opened 10
business for the last year or two
This makes it hard on the tomato
growers who live in this vicinity
who either have TO haul their good:
to other markets or take what is of
fered by the owners Of trucks, who
gather them The faTmers prefer tC
contract when they can get a faii
price.
The destruction by fire few
years ago of the Ritter catsup fac
tory at this point was a severe loss
to the farmers and others, as they
generally employed about 100 hands
women and men, and paid fair
wages.
We wish some one would locate
here and purchase the Archer can
ming factory as we understand with
a very little repair, can be put in
shape for the packing business at
any time.
We understand Mr. Archer will
sell the factory at fair figure.
Free Seed
Many of our farmers have been
supplied the past week with free
seed, consisting of potatoes, grass
see for pasture and a full supply Of
garden seeds. This is fine and will
save the farmers from purchasing
them which at the present time they
have very little cash left. We under
stand that the seeds came through
the Relief Commission at George
town. Landreth Layton, who is at
the head of Mt. is sending the seed
out.
FruR
1t now looks as If the fruit grow
ers would have a full crop of pea
ches, pears and cherries. Apple
trees are in full bloom and is a
pleasing sight to look at. If frost
keeps away the crop of apples
should be abundant.
This should be welcome news to
the unemployed as fruit makes up
half of their diet during the warm
season. When plentiful, it is always
cheap.
