American French Pens.

Only few years ago practically all
the canned peas consumed in this
country were imported from France,
the famous petit pois. AT that time it
was deemed impossible to produce the
required quality in this country, con
sumers desiring firm, even bright green
goods, and though sulphate of cop
per was used in securing that color
1t made comparatively little difference
with the trade. American packers,
however, experimental with the OBJ
1ect of producing pea the equal of
the French article, and how well they
succeeded is now an old story.
Starting with good seed, and under
careful cultivation, the American pea
now equals the imported product of
France, and our packers have built up
an industry which has become an i'm
portant feature of the great canned
goods trade of the country. The care
ful selection of seed has resulted in
variety having all the desirable uuali-
ties Of the French product and re-
curing the addition of no coloring sub
stances to make them attractive. Am
erican canned peas stand on their mer-
