ASHER DELEGATION
JOURNEYS TO DAYTON
Several members of the local Vir
ginia Asher Business Women's council
journeyed to Dayton Wednesday to at
tend the noon meeting of the Dayton business women's council there. The delegation also will visit the Sunday meetings while in Dayton.
The total number of business wo
men who attended the meetings of the
Asher council held at noon and in

cil has been organized. Seventy-seven

because of illness. . She was taken
111 after arriving here and was unabl
to take part in the program. Mr.
Garland was introduced by William
Dudley Foulke.
Mr. Garland's lecture was full of
interest and delightful narration. He
told of the toils and the blessings
of the early pioneer farmers of this
region ' and for this reason the inci
dents told were nearly the same as
the experiences of many of the older ones in the addience. The program
was changed because of the inabilit
of Miss Garland to be present, and
differed somewhat - from that announced.
After relating his home life in Wisconsin and his early childhood there,
Mr. Garland told of the migration of his family ever westward and onward until they finally reached the edge of the great prairie in . Dakota. His father was a born pioneer and the call to move farther and be) always on
the frontier could hardly be overcome
by the knowledge that nothing bet
ter could be foifnd. Mr. Garland was
finally able to persuade his father to leave off further pioneering and return to the old home in Wisconsin and
make it a permanent Garland home
stead. Stories Very Real
Mr. Garland read from '.'David and
His Violin," taken from "A Son of the Middle Border" and a paper on
the early pioneer days to end his
program. The Whole of Mr. Garland s
lecture held the audience in rapt at
tention and his stories of home life
were very real. The speaker's very interesting style, of narration clearly portrayed the joys and sorrows, pain
and pleasure and the every-day oc
curences in the' life of the pionera of
the "sixties" and "seventies." The
Garland lecture clearly stressed the
great call of the unknown and the
fact that otten that which, we now have is better than that lying ahead. Mr. Garland is a. nationally known author and lecturer, having won the
Pulitzer prize in 1917 for his book
"A Daughter of the Middle Border." Mr. Garland is the author of several books of the early pioneer days of the middle border, all of which have
become famous.

The curious method of fining port land cement sacks filling them upside down after they have been tied is a striking exampleof progress made in industrial processes. . Until twenty years ago, cement sacks were filled practically as all other sacks always had been. You had a huge bin of this finer-than-flour material. A workman at the door of the bin hung a sack up, with its mouth open, on a wooden frame and filled it with an ordi- -nary shoveL Then he set it on a scale, and with a hand scoop adjusted the weight of the contents to the exact 94 pounds required, after which he tied the sack by hand and tossed it on a truck to be hauled into a freight car. That was the way as little as twenty years ago, and no one had thought much of doing it dirf erendy. But now what happens? The cement is taken from the bin by an automatic conveyor a moving belt or bucket chain and elevated and dumped into the hopper of a filling machine. This is a small bin with an elaborate mechanism including a fan inside; and at the bottom of it is a 1-inch spout through which the cement flows like water. The filler sits at the spout. Sacks have been brought to him already tied at the top but with an opening guarded by a valve at the bottom.The filler slips the opening over, the spout and turns on the cement. When the sack is filled to exacdy 94 pounds it tips a scale, automatically turns off the cement, and with a little push from the filler falls on another moving belt that carries it out and drops it at the freight car door. By the old method, a team of four men could fill and load 1 ,600 sacks a day. By the new method, a similar team can fill and load 8,000. The filling machine is cosdy, and royalties must be paid on the valve sack process, but the new arrangement has meant a considerable labor saving. It has meant especially that the manufacturers have been able to get their product out more promptly to users during the rush period of summer and fall. Forinthat period laborof the kind required for sacking and loading is generally hard to get. Even with the improvements, a medium sized plant one producing a million barrels of cement a year and employing not more than 300 people altogether must normally employ 60 people in its sacking and loading department.
