$40 Nutrirnent

Beans are Natures choicest food-23 per cent heterogeneous;
81 per cent nutriment.
Like meat in their food value, but not like it in cost. See
how many you get for 10 cents.
They should be a daily dish-not an occasional. They are
appetzing and hearty; all people like them.
Perhaps you serve beans once week now, because they are
hard to prepare. Or because your people like other things bet
ter when beans are not rightly cooked.
Twill be different when you serve Van Camps.
You will serve them for breakfast-in croquettes or with
ham. You'll serve them for MISUNDERSTANDING hot. You'll
serve them for dinners-in salad.
You will hardly be able to serve them too often, for people
don't tire of Van Camps.

We Pay $3.50

We use only the whitest and plumpest Michigan beans.
They are picked out by hand from the choicest part of the
crop. And we pay s2.5e. per bushel. The beans we refuse sell
as low as 80 cents.
We use only sound, vneripened tomatoes.
Cheap sauce is made from tomatoes picked green, and
ripened in shipment. Or of scraps from a canning factory.
We could buy such sauce ready-made for exactly one-hfth
what we spend to make ours. But it would lack that richness,
that sparkling zest, which Nature gives to Van Camps.
No wonder that some brands sell cheaper than ours, yet pay
your grocer more profit.
But the best beans are cheap enough. They are even most
economical. For you will eat more beans in place Of meat.

Please learn what a difference there is between home-baked
beans and Van Camps.
But don't deem it your fault, for it isn't.
We have spent AZ years in learning how to perfect this dish.
This IS our speciaty-our one claim to supremacy. We bake
tens Of millions of cans every year.
No wonder We best know how.
Then we have the facilities, and you lack them all. So the
difference isn't all in the skill.
Beans, to be d~igestble, must be factory cooked.
The heat of your oven is far from sufficient. 1t can't break
up the food granules SO the digestive juices can get to them.
So h~ome-baked beans are hard to digest, even for the strongest
stomach.
Our ovens are heated to PAS degrees.

Nutty Mealy Whole

That's more than twice the heat that gets to the center OF
your baking dish. We apply that fierce heat for go minutes,
and the result is our beans are ~digestible.
That is a very important fact.
Then we bake in live team-not in dry heat. And we do
our baking after the cans are sealed.
That's why our beans are all baked alike. No beans are
crisped, no skins are broken. They are baked untiY they are
mealy, yet they are nutty because they are whole.
Perhaps the one thing missed most in h~ome-baked beans is
that delicious, nuty favor. Nobody likes beans mushy; every
body wants them whole.
Then we bake the beans, the tomato sauce and the pork all
together, and get our delicious blend. To bake the tomato
sauce into the beans is a very different thing from adding il
afterwards.

HOUSE GRANTS HEARING
ON APPALACHIAN RESERVE

Advocates Of the bill for the creation
Of the Appalachian-White Mountain for
est reserve are greatly interested in a
hearing which has been granted by the
House Committee on Agriculture Jan
uary so. This project has long been adj
v5cated and is one Of the most inn
portant OF the propositions urged by
those who are working for the conser-
walton of the country's natural re-
sources. The President is for the bill
and the Forest Service is laboring IN
itc behalf with great energy
1t IS urged that the only way in
which anything Ike a proper supply
of hardwood for the use of the public
can be conserved Is by preventing from
destruction the great hardwood forests
of the Appalachian system Creation
or the proposed reserve would, It is held,
not only save the forests of this region
and enable the Forest Reserve to pre-
Vent their being ruined by fire, lumber

would also make possible the fullest
