GRIFFIN GEORGIA, THURSDAY MORNING. JANUARY 20 1888
HOW PIES ARE MADE.
The Amount Devoured by Fastiy I-oving
; New Yorkers—Some Startling Figures.
A great revolution has gone on in the
manufacture and compounding of pie.
No more the housewife carefully meas¬
ures out “a cup of milk, a spoonful of
saleratus, a lump of butter, pinch of salt,
three tablespoonfuls of sugar, four sliced
apples and a little pure lard.’’ Today
the dough is kneaded by steam and the
ovens are vast and hot breathed caverns.
In the great kitchen of the modern pie
factory are numbers of immense copper
kettles surmounting brick ovens, and fat
male cooks stir the savory masses within.
On little tables around the room are
dozens of wooden tubs holding the linings
for thousands of pies. Then the busy
bakers take the dough, and before the
oven door with deft and rapid touches
press it into the shape of the embryo pie,
into a pan and a line of pies is soon pass¬
ing into the oven’s mouth with wonder¬
ful celerity. The ordinary ovens used
will hold about HC0 small pies and the
temperature required is graduated with
remarkable skill.
New York, of course, produces and eats
more pies than any city in the world,
although its per capita consumption is
eclipsed by Chicago, Boston and Philadel¬
phia. There are eight or ten large fac¬
tories dealing exclusively in pies, and be¬
tween 500 and 000 bakers also make
them. The largest factory is on Sullivan
street, and its output of pie is something
awful to contemplate, and when one
thinks of the number of churches and
schools the money spent for pie would
build, it is a question if the people should
not stop and ask, ‘ *'Whither is this awful
habit carrying us?” In a year or two the
pie habit may r;uik with the curse of
drink and evils of tobacco as a never
failing fountain from which debating so¬
cieties and Ivceums can draw topics to
argue on.
One of the foremen in the factory on
Sullivan street said:
“In cur establishment we turn out
every kind of pie so far discovered, but
there are certain kinds that are staple.
These are apple, minoe, lemon, grape,
raisin, plum, gooseberry, whortleberry,
strawberry, peach, raspberry, pineapple,
pumpkin and custard. Apple, mince,
lemon, pumpkin and custard are the fa¬
vorites. All our material is the finest in
the market, and we buy it in large quan¬
tities, always keeping our orders ahead.”
“How much material do on use
daily?” asked the reporter.
“In a single day we use about 100
dozen eggs, 860 pounds of lard, 12 bar¬
rels of Hour, 000 quarts of milk, 2,500
quarts of fruit, and turn out about 7,000
pies, or about 50,000 a week and 2,600,-
000 a year. The output from the largo
concerns in the city will amount to 35,-
000 pies daily, and the bakers will turn
out about 40,000 more, or 75,000 a day,
525.000 a week and 27,300,000 per
year, an average of about sixteen pies per
capita. These pies cut into quarters the
usual sizes outside of boarding houses
would make 109,200,000 pieces. At an
average of five cents—as some of the
cheap restaurants charge only three
cents, and tonier ones ten cents—this
would make New York's annual pie bill
$5,460,000, or more than we pay for
public schools, or the fire and police de¬
partments, or send to the heathen. New
York produces about one-thirtieth of the
pie crop of the United States.”
This last remark aroused a statistical
vein in the reporter, and he figured until
his brain was dizzy, and these are some
of the results: In the United States there
are eaten every day 2,250,000 pies; each
week, 10,750,000; each year, 819,000,-
000, at a cost of $163,800,000, an amount
greater than the internal revenue, and
more than enough to pay the interest on
the national debt and pensions. If the
pies eaten daily were heaped one on top
of another they would form a pie tower
193.000 feet, or nearly thirty-seven miles
high; if laid out in line they would reach
from New York to Boston. With the
pie products of a year a tower 13,468
miles high could be erected, and stretched
out they would cover a line 89,180 miles
long, or sufficient to girdle the earth
three times and let a Chinaman in Pekin
chew at the last pie. These pies before
eaten would weigh in a year 803,000
tons. Pie is a great institution, as these
figures show.—New York Journal.

MORE GAS TALK 1
SEW YORK PARTIES CONFERRING
WITH THE COUNCIL.
Sixty Street Lamps and Four Mites of
Pipes For $1,500 a Year--
A $40,000 Plant.
On yesterday aiternoon Aldermen
J. Q. Word, S. H. Deane, H. C.
Burr, J. D. Boyd and C, P. Newton
met with Mayor Grantland in the cot
ton factory office to hear a proposi
tion for the erection of gas works.
Messrs. Julius Lipman, Geo. O. Sco¬
field and Moses Kind, of the New
York Contract Co., were present in
the city and desired this opportunity
lo state what they could do in tba
way of furnishing town with better
light. They are down in Georgia
for the purpose of making a contraot
with the city of Amerlcus, and the
mayor of that city being absent for a
few days in Florida, they concluded
to put in a few days here, having had
some previous conespondence with
Mayor Grantland. They will remain
over today.
The proposition they laid before
the members of the council, in an in
formal way, was about as follows:
They will put in sixty street lamps,
which they think will be adequate to
light up the main portion of the town
for the present,each of sixteen candle
power, and to burn during every
hour of darkness, for $25 a lamp or
$1,500. To do this they propose to
put In a plant with $40,000 in stock
and $40,000 in bonds, selling $100
worth of both stock and bonds lor
each $100 in money. They do not
require any of the stock or bonds to
bo taken here, though they say they
would prefer to-have citizens interest
ed to the amount of $8,000 or $10,
000, so as to lake an intererst in
the affair. After the works are estab
lished and well started, they Jare to
be ran entirely by Griffin parties,
the New York gentlemen simply
holding their interest os an invest
ment. To private parties the cost
would be one cent an hour for each
burner turned full ou, the burner be
ing arranged to consume just one
foot an hour. There are other details
of the plan, which are not worth elab
oration until there is some prospect
of it being adopted.
The present plan of lighting the
streeis—or rather of not lighting
them—costs abont four hundred dol
lars. There is no doubt that we ueed
a better system, and on this the
council is probably agreed; but as to
what is the best plan to adopt, or
whether we can afford at present to
pay more, will bring on more talk.

Something the People Will Not Forgive.
Ilonry Comity Weekly.
The Atlanta Constitution has done
more towards shaping the politics of
Georgia for the last dozen years than
any other paper in the state. It is
a notorious tact but few of its under
takings have fallen through. There
is a scheme now on foot by our co
loesal friend to elect Major A.O. Ba
con, Governor of Georgia, that is like
ly to meet with some opposition both
from thepressand people ol the state.
There are a few things that will mill
tate against the election of Major
Bacon. It will be remembered by
the people of Georgia that Major Ba
con lias been a standing candidate
for office for many years. Tt will be
lurther remembered that the people
have not chosen him to represent
them in many years. But notwith
standing the tact that he has been rel
egated to a back seat, Major Bacon
still patriotically offers to sacrifice
himself on the political altar of his
country. There is one dark spot on
the fair escutcbeou of Major Bacon
that no amount ot whitewashing and
tariff reform bosh will remove. It is
the fact of bis allowing his inordinate
ambition to prompt him to run for
Governor against Governor James S
Boynton, and the foul slanders that
he and his henchmen fulminated
against that good man. The people
can forgive many things, but when
they see a man wantonly attacked
and defeated by slanders, such as
Major Bacon authorized, they reserve
for themselves the right to sit down
on such a mau. As it now stands, it I
is the Constitution and Alajor A. O
Bacon on one side and the people ou
the other. The question is, will the
Constitution elect Major Bacon or
will the people elect a more worthy
man? We wait the development of
events.
