Long before “the night before Christmas” the nation’s candy factories start round-the-clock shifts to fill Santa’s orders. Getting Christmas stocking filled with all the traditional yuletide sweets is nearly a three months job, and one that actually never ends for operations like Kroger’s candy plant in Cincinnati, one of the largest in the nation. By the time Santa begins his rounds, Kroger alone will have 6,000,000 pounds of candy ready for distribution. That’s enough to fill five 50-car trains. A lot of it will be the old fashioned “hard mix” with flags, ships, pretty girls and other designs in the centers. First step in making striped hard * candy is shown above. It takes years of experience to develop the skill necessary in this operation. To supply candy in the quantities necessary today, however, requires the application of massproduction methods and the use of intricate machines. It would take years to turn out by hand the quantity of candy needed for Christmas alone, without filling orders for the rest of the year. A mechanical “taffy pull” machine is shown in the bottom picture. In the Kroger factory it takes nearly a million dollars worth of modem machinery and more than 500 employes, working around the MUNSINGWEAR FOR WOMEN AND GIRLS PANTIES AND SLIPS. SHIVELY’S.

clock to keep the candy lines humming. In addition to the “taffy pull” machines, automatic mixers and large pressure cooking tanks are kept busy making chocolate drops, caramels, chocolate covered cherries, orange slices and the many other Yuletide confections, Norman Beatty, superintendent, estimates that 3000 tons of sugar, 1200 tons of glucose and about 250,000 pounds of chocolate will be transformed into Kroger candy for the Christmas season.
