WAR DELAYS LIBRARY
Wilmington Postpones Canvass to
Raise 100000 for Building.

WILMINGTON, Del. Sept. l7.-War has
made itself felt in the project to raise
the necessary 100000 for the purpose OF
erecting new library building in this
city. The managers of the institution
have decided that because of the unset
tied condition of business due to the war
it would be unwise to start the sub
scriptions at this time. AS soon as busl-
ness recovers. however. a determined
canvass VIII be made for funds and Il
Is not expected there will be any par
ticular difficulty in securing them.
The managers will raise the 100000 in
addition TO the funds already on hand
and while the site has not yet been Sc
lected' it is intended to erect the new
building somewhere in the vicinity OF
Tenth ana Market streets. which is to be-
come a civic centre when the new joint
city and county building is completed,

COLD STORAGE MEAT
Method Involving Freezing Rather
Than Mere Chilling Favored.

In these days when cold storage, the
employment of preservatves in foods
and the adulteration Of food products are
being subjected to the most severe criti-
clsm, discussion held by the Society of
British Medical Officers OF Health on the
refrigeration of food, and reported in
the Lancet, should prove of interest. says
the Medical Record.
Dr, Hanna. who opened the discussion
referred to the fact that the United States
was not only no longer sending cattle to
Great Britain, but was taking for its
own supply cattle from countries which
had hitherto exported almost exclusively
20 Great Britain. He went on to point
out that the methods OF refrigeration Of
toodstutfs depended chiefly on the sCien-
tiiic fact that expanding air or vapor-
izing substances, such as sulphuric acid
caTbonic acid or ammonia, In assuming
the gaseous form distracted heat from
the atmosphere or other bodies in the
neighborhood,
Fresh meat was carried from distant
countries either as hard frozen meat or
chilled meat Chilled meat arrived in a
condition ready for consumption and re-
taIned the characteristics OF fresh meat
more closely than frozen meat, but the
chilling process required great care, and
the transport needed constant supervis-
ION. lhe frozen method was the better
as regarded preservation, although it
sometimes damaged the cellular and
hbrOus structure OF the meat unless spe-
cial care was taken in defrosting. Hanna
gave il as his opinion that meat when
thawed would keep with proper care as
wen as freshly killed meat after being
taken from the refrigerator even in
high temperature, view not in accord
ance with popular opinion.
OF course, refrigeration or chilling OF
foodstuffs Is necessary when these have
to be conveyed for long distances, as for
example, from North or South America
to Europe. but great care must be exer-
Clsed both In the process itself and the
defrosting. That. however, animal food
thus treated does not undergo a certain
amount OF ueleI i9I 'lon Is we" op-
certainly the suggestion that refrigera-
ton may improve the favor of meat IS
one not borne out By experience.

How Many Shots Will Be Firedp

The question is often asked how many
