These plants are to be owned and operated by the Consolidated Canning om- a capitalization of dquarters being in sonville. Wherever a canning factory is established by this com- pany the town will have to agree to subseribe for at least §3,000 worth of stock. Among those who were enthusias-~ tically in favor of seeing this ente prise locate here Mr. Co W, Deen, Prestdent of the First National Bank, who volunteered the first local sub- scriptions of stock. Mr. Deen made an address in which he called atten- tlon to the fact that thousands of quarts of strawberries and hundreds of boxes of oranges go (o waste each in addition to the large amount of v tables which could be converted into the delicacies which have to be shipped in, and that he was greatly in favor of in- teresting the capitalists in locating cne of their plants in this city. TheTelegram is informed that the work of soliciting stock subscriptions is now under way and that fair suc- cess is being met wllh.
