Cannery Prices Up

Due to the increased cost Of
cans, labor and fuel it has be-
come necessary to increase the
fee of canning from seven and
eight cents a can to eight and
nine cents a can at the Tabor
City school community cannery,
Principal c. H. Primer said yes
terday.
Primer declared that since
the cannery was first opened
price rises have been absorbed
by the cannery but that it is
no longer possible to do that.
He pointed out that the can
merry is for the service of the
public and is a non-profit Or
ganization except for general
operating capital. Due to the
increase in operating expense,
the cannery broke even this past
year with only about 1000 cans
left as starter for the new year.
Primer also declared that it
is now necessary for patrons OF
the cannery to bring their own
utensils when canning as so much
equipment has been taken from
the building that very little is
left. He pointed to the fact
that of l6 large dish pans avail,
able when the cannery opened
only two are left. Other small
er equipment has suffered a like
fate, he said.
