LITTLE MARY MIXUP Pmmm MM i few Mnssjgj i Ull mt Da i i as a km i sn SPRINGFIELD MISSOURI REPUBLICAN, SUNDAY MORNING, JULY 20, K21 Canning Factory at State Teackers College Proves To Be Profitable Venture Tomatoes, Corn and Beans Are Principal Crops Raised on College Farm and Canned in a Plant Installed Three Years Ago. The canning factory at Bouthweet Missouri State Teaohere college, which la located In the northeast corner of the powerhouse, has been earing the local college more than tl.MO per year for the past three years, President Clyde M. Hill said yesterday. 1 The existence of the canning factory has been practically 'unknown to many residents of this city and a tan to many students of the oollege since It was Installed In 1931 The factory has an output of t.Oun cans of vegetables per year, according to the site of the crepe harvested from the college' liruan un mi nnimwiii section 01 the campus.

In 19a the canning rectory, which Is under the direction of John SeUy, who Is assisted by students, had an output of more than (.000 cans of ese taMea, all of which were consumed at the college cafeteria and Njormltorin. There were 4.800 eans or tomatoes. 1.000 cans of beans and 1.900 eans of corn in tha output during 1922, said Mr. Selby. The factory was not In operation on an extensive scale during ir.

Mr. 8elby said, becauaaof the small crop on the college farm. However, during the past year the oollege farm has been fairly productive and already more than 48S cans of beans have been turned out by, the factory. The farm Is cultivated by students of the agrl culutre classes of the college, which are under direction of Professor Alexander. When ths canning factory Is In op sratlon at the college It presents a very busy scans.

The vegetables are brought directly from tha field to the factory, where they are cleaned by student help and made ready for the "cooker." After ths green bean tomatoes and corn, or what la being canned, have been sufficiently cooked they are seasoned and then canned. A sealing machine turns out the sealed cans of vegetables at a fast rate. Much experimenting waa done by the agricultural department of the local college before the canning machinery Installed. Oreen beans have a tendency. It waa said, to "sour" unless they are handled In the proper manner.

Therefore, the utmost care must be exercised In the canning of ths tiene. as well as the tomatoea and "new" corn. Beans, tomatoes and corn are the three largest crops on the college farm and comprise the most of the canned goods In the output of the factory. Ths vretble canned by the college factory have been so satisfactory during ths past three years that the factory has more than paid for Itself, said President Hill. The tomato crop la not ready for the factory yet, It waa said, but operations will commence about August 10 In ths handling of the tomato crop and the wlndup of the bean crop.

Much cora also will be canned while the factory le In operation In Auruet, ssld Mr. Berey. Mors than 1.600 cans of corn, J.WO cans of tomatoes and 1.000 cans of beans will comprise the output of the factory this summer, said Mr. Selby. Residents of Springfield are invited to Inspect the factory when It Is In operation, President Hill said.
