lication, 500 900 copies were sold in the
United Staets alone. To-day, critics
pronounce Uncle Toms Cabin" by no
means the best of Mrs. Stoves produc-
tions, but it certainly is the book by
which she is known to the world at
large.
Susan B. Anthony, leader of a
cause" is a leader whose name is a
household word at least in the United
States. Miss Anthony has been interest
ed in many reforms-temperance edu-
cational and the great movement for the
abolition of slavery - but she is best
known as the champion Of 'Woman's
Rights" Though born Quaker, Miss
Anthony has been known for aggres-
siveness rather than meekness of spirit.
She has acclaimed on public platforms,
petitioned legislatures, edited a paper
and written a book, all for the furtheIfng
of equal civil rights for women. This
indefatigable leader in "the emancipa-
ton of women" is still living, having
attained the ripe age Of 81 years. That
she has seen her cause considerably ad-
vanced none will deny
During the Crimean war, Miss Flor
ence Nightingale eXerted her womanly
energies to lessen the sufferings entailed
by that war, and owing to her zeal and
fearlessness great reforms were effected
in the care of wounded soldiers. When
a grateful host desired to present he1
q testimonial of $250000, she refused
to accept it, but suggested the fund be
subscribed to an institution for the train
ing of nurses. In our own country, re-
forms in the care Of soldiers were es-
tablished by Miss Clara Barton, whose
talents came into active play during the
civil war. Then when the Franco Ger.
man war called for nurses, she aided the
Red Cross in its work abroad For hel
services she was decorated with the
golden cross of Baden and the iron cross
of Germany. In 1881, she became presi.
dent of the American Red Cross society

rectly interested in the canning indus
try, and the cans of fruits and vegetables
sold every year are valued at close to-
S60.000.000. Figures that bespeak the
vastness of the industry.
The state that furnishes the output
ofcanned goods Of greatest value Canned
goods not including meats, is Califor-
MIA Maryland leads in the canning Of
vegetables, but California is ahead in
fruit canning The value of the canned
product of California for 1902 was over
$13 900 900; 100000 cases of fruit were
canned, and it was not considered good
year, either. Pears, apricots, peaches
and cherries were the principal fruits
of the California canneries; berries,
grapes, plums, ounces, currants and
other fruits, constituted the smaller
quantities put up. Not more than y
per cent. of the fruit grown in California
is canned, so much fresh fruit being sent
out, and great deal preserved by bury
ing. The tomato crop is becoming very
important in California, and California
canned tomatoes are fast growing in
fame. Great Britain has long been a
large buyer of the California canned
goods, but now demands are pouring
into the Pacific state from nearer home;
in China, Siberia, the Philippines, and
all through the Pacific islands are scat
tered tins bearing pictures of the gigan-
| tic fruit and vegetables grown and
canned in California.
Yet the center of the canning industry
! is Baltimore. where more vegetables and
| fruits are canned than in any other city
| in the world. The season for both vege-
tables and fruit is longer in Maryland
! than in any of our states; and the can
ming products rotate the year round, the
! climate being so favorable for both rails
ing products and packing the imported
crops The canneries put up oranges
and pineapples in the spring, fruits and
vegetables in the summer, peaches in au-
tumn, clans, oysters and crabs in the
winter. In Maryland as we'll as in Cali
fornia the canned tomato is an impor-
tant output from the factories. In addi-
ton to the usual canned goods, factories
in this state put up beets, greens in gen.
eral, sweet potatoes, sauerkraut, and
pretty nearly everything edible. The
value of the canned product of Mary
land is over $11 10000 yearly.
The canning of vegetables is COM
paratively recent industry. 1t began to
come into prominence in 1856, in con-
nection with DR.. Kanes Arctic expe-
dition. when the experiment was made
ofpreservingfor the voyagers fish, meats
and vegetables, az well as fruits Those
early methods seem very crude to-day
when everything, even to the boxing, is
done by electricity or steam.
Over 500 OOO, 600 cans of vegetables ant
fruits are handled by the packers every
year. The states having the largest
number of establishments and furnish.
ing the greater part of the output are
California, Maryland Illinois, Indiana
New Jersey, Ohio, Delaware, Iowa anC
Maine; the value of the yearly produc
ranging from something over $13,000
900 in California to something over 81,
900 900 in Maine.

Back in 1895, the French government
offered a prize for the best method Of
preserving foods, and this prize was
won by one Appert, who used glass YES
sells in his process. Then an English
man taught the world to use tin cans
in place of the jars, and finally the
Yankee put his wits at work and pro-
