Commercial Value of Popcorn Increasing.

"The invention Of mechanical corn pop.
ping aids which make the process almost
automatic has stimulated the demand for
pop corn" says Farm and Fireside. the
national farm paper published in Spring
field, O. These mechanical peppers pre-
vent losses from seorching the corn and
insure popped product that need not be
touched by the hand until il is in the
possession Of the consumer. There is also
a growing commercial use Of pop corn in
confectionery. II is quite possible that
pop corn in some form may yet become
a satisfactory substitute for some of the
commercial breakfast foods. There are
now hand propelled and small power roll
ing mills suitable for the preparation Of
pop corn and other cereals for breakfast
use which are giving good service.
