OUR SOLDIERS
M. c. Robbins.

Go scatter flowers upon the graves.
OF the noble and the brave,
Who left their homes and loved ones
Their loved country to save.
Upon the bloody battlefield
They fought both night and day;
Some wore the uniform of blue
While others wore the gray.
Yes, scatter flowers upon the place,
Where sleep our noble dead.
And let the glorious Stars and Stripes,
Float proudly DER their head.
They died because they loved the flag,
They suffered and they bled,
So comrades don't forget them now,
When they sleep among the dead.
So few are left to scatter flowers,
Or hear the bugle call;
Their ranks grow thinner every day,
Soon death will claim them all.
So fiji their lives with sunshine,
Remember they were brave;
They faced the deadly cannons roar,
The stars and Stripes to save.
Yes. scatter flowers above them,
The boys that sat at night,
Around the camp-hre's ruddy glow
with hearts both true and light.
Now they have met beyond the
stars.
Irf the camping-ground on high,
Where the battle-cry is never heard
In that land beyond the sky.
So don't forget to scatter flowers,
And let the flag wave, too,
Because in life they loved it so.
And they were brave and true.
They've heard the taps beyond the
sky,
That calls them to a rest,
That never can be broken now
In that City of the blest.

ucts prepared in this way seemed to
fail to satisfy that very curious hu-
man quality-taste. AS our grand
mothers used to say, t'They didn't

were right, for the addition of vine

certainly did altar the natural flavor
to such an extent that sometimes the
original flavor was lost altogether, and
the old farmers definition of squash
could be applied with splendid results.
1t may be remembered that this an
cient agriculturist remarked:
yes, sir. Squash is a great thing
You cook it and then put on plenty of
salt. butter and pepper, and it tastes
more like nothing than anything

Must Preserve Natural Flavor.
That was the trouble with the early
preserved foods. They tasted like any
thing but what they were originally, or,
more properly perhaps, like nothing
at ALL" 1t was all over again the an
cient proverb about the man who used
great quantities of perfume and of
whom Queen Elizabeth remarked But
it is well known. so why repeat it? BY

the nutmeg and the Glove had been

delicacy might as we'll have been de-
scribed as plum pudding or mince meat
or strawberry mixture. for the taste of
the tomato itself had disappeared in the
resulting war of the spices. True they
preserved the fruit or the vegetable or
whatever it was, but so did the same
things preserve our old friends, the
antidiluvian inhabitants of the Nile
territory, so that we can put them on
exhibition in the British museum, the
Louvre or the Metropolitan Museum of
Art.
When the chemist had come into his
own he put those things aside to a
great extent and realized that what
the people really wanted when they
bought canned peaches was some semi
spherical yellow globes that looked and
tasted like peaches and less like In
dian chutney. It is important also to
remember that the resulting product
of the packer must look like the origi-
nal fruits as well as taste like them.
Every housewife knows what happens
to the peaches when she stews them
too long. They resemble in appear
ance oatmeal mush, but they don't look
like the peaches she bought from the
grocer or picked from the tree. OF
course she knows they are peaches, but

take her word for it. So the manu-
facturer of preserves is forced to the

do. Plain heat and sterilization were all
right and effective when applied to
things that were to be consumed i'm
mediately upon opening, but these
things did not act as a preventative
against decay when the question of
preserves themselves came into play.
They did not have effect when the
package was to be opened today and
kept open for five or six days or until
the contents were consumed. De-
terioration set in at once, and the wait
ing army of bacteria soon found
breach in the walls that they could
storm Hence it became necessary to
find some repellant garrison that could
be depended upon to guard the walls
indefinitely.
The air tight package was all right
until it was opened, but after that it
was no better than a house with no
locks on the door, and the burglar was
free to enter as he chose. 1t was the
chemist who sat in his laboratory and
found the remedy. 1t was the chemist
who went back to Nature herself and
pried open the secret box of her meth
DDS. 1t was the food chemist who
found that certain fruits if left to
themselves would simply dry up and
keep indefinitely in that state and who
set himself to inquire what means
Nature had taken to prevent decay.
Cranberries are staple article of food,
and the cranberry will not spoil, no
matter how long it may lie neglected
in the barrel. The inference was that
the cranberry must have some natural
preservative, and the chemist set him
self to discovering it. Soon he found
that the huckleberry had the same
power, and it was not long until he dis
covered that Nature had supplied a
preservative of her own.
Found Natures Own Method.
1t was only necessary to analyze the
fruit and discover what that preserva-
tive was and apply it to other products
that Nature had omitted to protect.
Once that was done the rest was easy.
Today the food chemist supplies the
packer of fruits and vegetables that
are not intended for immediate con-
sumption with tasteless, colorless,
harmless antidote of Natures own de-
vising and the thing is done. The
housewife may purchase a gallon of
peach preserves, open it and leave it
open, using what she wants from day
to day, and the peaches are the same
as when they were first put together.
Why? Because the chemist has come
to her assistance.
In the old days of preserving foods
for future consumption there were
many methods. such as picking smok-
ing, drying. sailing, embalming, and
these REQUIRED the use of spices. es-
