THE REX ALL STORE

Canning Factory to Start. The Fortville canning factory will open for the season about the middle of August. With rain, it is thought the tomato pack this year will be much larger than last year. Last year the company paid laborers and farmers nearly $9,000 and then struck a dividend of 20 per cent. This year the sums to be paid for labor and tomatoes will excefed the above figures. The company has just received 63,000 cans and stored them.

Last year the company packcd and shipped 18,000 dozen cans of tomatoes and were closed out soon after the factory closed for the season. Owing to the excellent quality of the stock they found a ready sale. Great improvements have been made in the machinery this year and Fortville now boasts of one of the most sanitary factories in the country.

From fifteen to twenty men and forty peelers will be worked this season.

FLOWERS ARE KEPT IN GOLD STORAGE

LOCAL NURSERYMAN AND DEALER ARE WELL PLEASED WITH UNUSUAL EXPER

IMENT WITH PEONIES—WILL TRY OTHERS.

J. K. Henby & Son grow peonies in the nursery to sell for plants and as they can allow them to bloom they realize considerable revenue from selling the bloom, also. The flowers usually bloom in time for Decoration Day, as they are specially called for, for their decorative day use. If the weather is backward and the blooms do not open in time, the flowers are usually unsold, but last year Elijah Henby, believing he could keep them for a later market, placed several hundred of them in cold storage, and after keeping them in the ice plant for a month, shipped them to Indianapolis. They opened up in fine condition and were satisfactory, both to the florist and to Mr. Henby.

On the 25th of April, this, year, Mr. Henby packed quite a quantity of blooms, placed them in cold storage and July 11th, shipped them to his customer in Indianapolis and after receiving them the customer wrote: "The peonies arrived in good condition. We put some of them in fresh water after re-cutting the stems and wo find they open fine and are even fragrant. So, as far as your way of storing is concerned, it is a success, and to know that one can keep the flowers over on a glutted market and lay his hands on them later, when he needs them means a whole lot to the flower business."

Later, on July 15tli, the wrote: "We just sold the last of your peonies and enclose check for the same. You may find our report short 75 or so, because we experimented with some of the bunches to find out what they would do after they were exposed to flower store conditions. They acted fine in every way and we are well pleased."

Mr. Henby believes the same can be done with roses, carnations, etc., and if it can, it will mean quite a lot to the customer "who is sometimes disappointed when he wants flowers and finds they are scarce and the price prohibitive," as well as to the grower, who sometimes finds his greenhouse full of flowers with no market for them. It is usual for florists to keep flowers for a few days in a refrigerator, but be able to store them for six weeks to two months is remarkable.

Will Have Sorghum Anyway. Irvin Barnard, of Green township, as in Greenfield Thursday afternoon. He said (he prospects for-a sorghum crop are good. He ays sorghum crop are good. He says eatlier.

PURITY MILK AND IGE GREA1JG0.

NOW HAVE BIG REFRIGERATING PLANT ALMOST READY LOCAL PLANT WILL BE

ONE OF BEST OF ITS SIZE IN STATE.

The Purity Milk and Ice Cream Company has the new $1,500 refrigerating plant almost completed and' expect to start it this week. This new plant is new and up-to-date in every particular and while the first cost of installing it is great, the weekly saving amounts to a great deal and the company is enabled to handle a much larger volume of business because of the enlarged capacity.

The new refrigerating plant has a capacity of 200 gallons of ice cream daily, or 1,200 gallons a week and storage capacity of 500 gallons. The freezing and refrigerating is done with ammonia, which is forced through rows of pipes that pass through the refrigerating room, keeping it at zero. Another compartment is kept at 38 degrees, for milk. The freezing of the ice cream is done with brine which passes through pipes from the refrigerating plant. When the cream is frozen, it is stored in the compartment of the refrigerator for future use. The entire process is accomplished by the use of ammonia, ice only being used to pack cream sent out.

The pasteurizing of the milk is accomplished partly by the same process. The pasteurizer is filled and hot water forced through pipes that are kept in motion as the milk passes about them. It is heated to a temperature of 140 degrees and kept at that temperature for 30 minutes. Then it is cooled by the same process with cold water to 38 degrees. The milk is then forced into the bottling reservoir, where 20 pint and 12 quart bottles are filled and capped at one time. From the time the milk enters the plant, it is never struck by the air until it is bottled and capped ready for delivery.

The entire plant will be up-to-date in every particular, and when all the improvements are completed the company will solicit and handle more milk from the farms round about the city. Many farmers have already made inquiry as to when they would be ready to handle their milk and a wagon will probably be started through the country to gather up the milk. The plant is now handling about 150 gallons of milk daily, having two wagons in charge of Robert Burton and Charley Wickard delivering to the city trade. More butter will be churned when the plant is in complete operation, as the call for butter, buttermilk and cottage cheesex increases daily. Later in the season a. large boiler will be installed and the entire building, corner of Pennsylvania and Depot streets, will be heated. The second story is being arranged by Mr. Alexander as living apartments for himself. The new refrigerating plant being installed was manufactured by the Creamery Package Manufacturing Company, of Chicago, and is being installed by their representative.

The officers of the Purity Milk and Ice Cream Company are Prof. W. W. Winn, principal of the New Palestine schools, president Wilbur Harvey, vice-president, and A. B. Alexander, secretary and treasurer. Ed Wright is the bicycle boy and is most efficient and busy in that place.

Not Marketing Wheat Now. There is not much wheat coming into market now. Most of the threshing is done, and the farmers who did not deliver their wheat from the machines are not willing to take the present price. „r?

fe. S. Hart has begun the erection of a nice veranda to the Noble P. Howard property, at the corner of State and North streets, which he recently purchased of the estate of W. H. H. Rock.

Poet's Tribute to Boyhood Friend

The poem below was written yesterday by James Whitcomb Riley in honor of George A. Carr, of Greenfield, who died Monday. Mr. Riley and Mr. Carr were boyhood playmates in Greenfield, and continued their friendship in later life..

GEORGE A. CARR. July 21, 1914. Greenfield. 0 Playmate of the far-away And dear delights of Boyhood's day, And friend and comrade true and tried, Through length of years of life beside, 1 bid you thus a fond farewell Too deep for words or tears to tell.

But though I lose you, nevermore To greet you at the open door, To grasp your hand or see your smile, I shall be thankful all the while Because your love and loyalty Have made a happier world for me.

So rest you, Playmate, in that land Still hidden from us by His hand, Where you may know again in truth All of the glad days of your youth— As when in days of endless ease We played beneath the apple trees. —James Whitcomb Riley.

Indianapolis, July 21.

The above comment and poem by James Whitcomb Riley, in tribute to his boyhood friend, George A. Carr, were published in the Indianapolis Morning Star of Wednesday. July 22nd, and will be preserved by thousands of people all over the country.
