J Page 12 THE WAYNES VILLE MOUNTAINEER THURSDAY, APRIL i.V. I If ) . ' I j. Land 0' The Sky Plans Extensive Packing In 1937 in (Continued from paze 1) canneries. There are now nine the jrroup. A cannery is being huilt at Cross ville, Tennessee, at an expenditure of $30,000. "The growth of the Land O' The Sky Association has been phenominal, Mr. Barr said. "Sales have grown 150 per cent and would have grown 300 per cent, but for the drought. We hope to sell $300,000 worth of packed goods this year." Contracts have been signed for 1.782 acres of bean, tomatoes and other veg etables this year, the speaker contin ued. "The organization is spending a lot of money in an effort to assist the growers. In fact, the income of the organization is only about 75 per cent of the out-go. Much is spent in sending out information to the growers. The last of 1930, we mailed 13,000 letters consisting of 4 or 5 pages. All these dealt with the co-operative movement." The maintenance of the Waynesville office requires a rather large sum, .Mr. Barr pointed out. Last year $H)(i was spent fur telephone and telegrams, $340 foi postage, $'J,000 for office sal aries. One interesting feature of the office being in Waynesville, is that the can ned goods bear Land ()' The Sky labels, which have Waynesville on them. This year 4,HOO,6l)0 of these wools will Do used. Although the packed goods have met with favorable comment from the buying public. Mr. Barr stated that he still was not satisfied with the pack, and would never stop trying to im prove on it. "In 1035 I went to the Atlanta market, and was able to place only a few hundred cases of our goods. In 1236 we sold 3 or 4 thousand cases. Last week we sold 30,000 cases, and could have sold more if we were sure of being able to make delivery. New we have withdrawn from the market," he said. In a few years, it is Mr. Barr's be lief, that instead of using 4 million labels, that ten million will be re quired for the cans of fruits and veg etables produced in the canneries affiliated with the Land O' The Sky. I'rank Davis, manager of the Hay wood Mutual Canning Association, Ins., spoke briefly of what the asso ciation is doing to help Haywood county farmers. He. is encouraged over the prospects for the coming year. Miss Palmer Named May Queen At WCTC Miss Emily Palmer, of Crabtree, has been chosen May Queen at Western Carolina Teachers College.
