Soaked" Peas and Beans.

Reports received by officials in charge
of the enforcement of the Food and
Drugs Act reveal that owing to the
great demand and consequent high
prices for canned peas and beans,
many Gamers are putting on the mar
ket products made by soaking dried
peas and beans and then canning them.
If the consumer desires the dried pro-
duct it is much cheaper to buy the
peas and beans directly from the gro
Ger and soak them at home. In this
way the same article is served at a
much less cost.
