two persons, one at either end and

corks large enough to seal the bottles

"Mr. Hoover and his food conserva.

their attitude.
For instance, apriCots, no matter how
delicious, cannot be canned unless they
are of a standard size. And when ap-
ricots are plentiful, canning companies
are discriminating. They buy only the
biggest apricots and tell the grower to
feed the rest to the hogs if he likes.
In Southern California, one of the
worlds greatest apricot producing sec

year. But, according to the Gamers,
the cots were small. And having an
abundance to choose from, the Gamers
