Dehydration _Plant To Finish Cabbage The Exeter branch of Canadian Canners during the latter part of last week received from the Domin ion Government the "Go 'Ahead" sign to finish the dehydration of the very fine cabbage crop now in this locality. The plant had been. closed down for a few days after word was received from the gover- ment that all dehydrated vegetable contracts had been cancelled. When the plant closed down it was es- timated that there were some 1,500 tons of cabbage under contract at $12.00 a ton which would mean a loss of some $18,000. However the government had promised that the growers would be protected. The re- opening of the plant means that the one hundredodd employees who were being laid off are now back again at their old jobs.
