Alfred N. Cook, state food and
drug commissioner in a recent
circular says that while he finds
more or less authorizations in foods
now on sale in our grocery stores
they are almost entirely free from
substances that are commonly re-
garded as deleterious to health.
He mentions one exception how
ever, which is the use of the So
called vegetable canning COM
pounds. He says there is no
known safe preservative for canning
vegetables. In the factories moth
ing is added to vegetables in can
ming except salt and water and
sometimes a little sugar. All
canning compounds contain sub
stances forbidden under the pure
food laws. He mentions especial
ly Mrs. Prices Canning Compound
which is composed principally of
borax and a little common salt.
The commissioner advises all
merchants having any of these
compounds on their shelves to de-
stroy them or return them to the
houses from which they were pur-
chased, as all dealers offering them
for sale will be recommended for
prosecution, and the fact that they
are kept on the shelves will be
taken as prima facia evidence that
they are offered for sale.
