utes, as the product has a much bet ter appearance when 1t Is not over cooked.
 While sorting or grading goes on more or lesE continuously in all de- partments of cannery, the principal grading is done in the receiving room, and before the food Is processed. Hera experienced graders pass upon the quality of the material and sort 1t for the various canning tables.
 The next step Is washing, and this is usually done by dumping the fruit or vegetables into a tank of water to loosen adherent dust and dirt, gently rolled over by the agitation Of the wa ter by compressed air, and then spray ed as they emerge. The spraying is done under considerable pressure. as better cleaning can be done with a small amount of water under pressure than a large volume moving slower.
 Many of the fruits and vegetables cleaning and sorting, after which they are placed directly in the cans. Fruit like peaches, apples and pears, how ever, must be peeled and cut to the proper size.

 The Blanching Operation.
 The operation of blanching is in reality parboiling. Vegetables arc dropped into boiling water for from one to five minutes to cause softeuing and to remove on the surface. Blanch- ing not only improves the appearance of the product. but in many cases i'm proves the quality, for peas that are a little aged and hard will be made tender by blanching.
 Filling the cans Is done either by machines or by hand. Some tender fruits must be handled gently and would be crushed by the machines, and these are all placed in the cans by women operators. who carefully weigh each can to see that it contains the pre- scribed amount
 In machine filling, the vegetable or fruit being canned is deposited in the can and the necessary syrup, brine or natural juice added before the can passes on to the capping machines.
 Open-top cans are sealed by a spe- cial machine, known as double seamer. The lid is pressed into place and steel rollers crimp it on without

keeping qualities. Cooking at boiling temperature Is practiced with nearly all fruits. as the germs present are easily destroyed. Most of the fruits are "processed" for from 12 to 25 min utes.
 With vegetables 1t Is necessary, in most cases, to cook them at temp perature above the boiling point, and this Is usually done in retorts where water can be superheated or where steam Is admitted under pressure. The tomato however, is heated at boiling temperature, like fruit, but it requires about 50 minutes for the job.
 Some vegetables are harder to ster- fltze than others, and require high de- grees of heat for long periods. Corn Is one of the most difficult to can, re- quiring 6 temperature of from 2z5 to 25O degrees r. for from 75 to so min utes.

THE discovery and development
 of the canning principle has
 revolUtionized our eating habits, for no matter where we live there are times when we are unable to secure fresh vegetables and fruits and resort must be had to those which are canned or dried. Many localities, which by reason Of their altitude or climatic conditions prohibit the grow ing of fresh foods, must subsist almost entirely on canned vegetables and fruits, and to these people the little tin that preserves the succulence and flavor of the fresh produce picked from tho garden. is indeed a boon.
 While 1t can not be said that most vegetables that are canned are as good in flavor as when fresh, yet there are some particular vegetables and fruits that are actually improved by canning such as asparagus and pineapple In the case of all others5 so wonderful have been the improvements in the canning process that today one can get practically any kind of vegetable or fruit put up in cans thai will be practically as satisfactory as the fresn- Food that is canned when perfectly fresh will actually be better in daTor and food values, than the so-called "fresh" variety that is old and wilted when 1t reaches the housewife. So enormous are the demands of the big commercial canneries for material that they usually contract with growers in the vicinity to supply certain quanti- ties Of peas, or beans. corn, tomatoes or whatever crops are put up.
 Always Canning in California.
 To keep the plants running for as long q season as possible, the large canneries start in on early varieties. canning one thing at a time. ana changing from one vegetable or fruit to another as the ssEz0n advances. In California, where the canning industry has been developed to a remarkable degree, some plants are in constant operation, day and night, for many months, and vegetables picked early In the morning in fields many miles away are hauled by train or truck to the cannery and are entirely processed and reposing in tins in the warehouse be ,re the sun sets that day. This in that the food is canned when in
 iectly fresh condition.
 n the modern canning plant every
 ssible mechanical means is employ
The Bridgeport times and evening farmer., 1921-05-31

Contrary to ordinary belief, in ths commercial canning of fruits and vegetables tho only things added in the canning process are salt, vinegar or other seasoning and water. No hard ening. bleach or preservattve is em- ployed, and the keeping qualities of the food are dependent upon the ster- iIization process. If fresh, wholesome fruit or vegetables arc received at the packing plant, handled in e clean and efficient way during the canning pro cess, and the containers are properly sealed and ster1Iized, the cans will pre- serve their contents in perfect condi- ton for many years, and they can be shipped to cold and hot climates with out deterioration
 Improvements Constantly Sought.
 If the tfniest pinprick Is made in the can, however, or the food was not properly steriItzed and the contents all lowed to work" the food soon be- comes unfit for consumption
 To improve existing methods of can ming food, to guard against the intro duction of deIetertous substances and to fully understand the chemical changes that take place in different foods under varying conditions, the commercial canners of the United States maintain a central organization, made up of food chemists and other experts, who constantly study the problems of the canners, experiment. ing with new materials for containers, testing the degrees of heat required for different fruits and vegetables and oth- erwise endeavorfng to improve the quality of the products canned, protect the public against the danger of pto- maine poisoning and advance the iR~ dustry as whole.
 Since the various manufacturers of canned goods now market their prod ucts under welI-advertised brands, they are exceedingly anxious to main- tain the quality of their products, for they know that all the advertising and publicity in the country will not con tinue to sell goods that are not kept at the standard claimed for them. The canners follow their shipments to all parts of the world, and if any cans develop the slightest evidence Of trou- ble. they are usually recalled while in the possession of the wholesaler or Philadelphia Record.

The top Is wiped, the cap placed on, acid applied. the hot soldering irons drop into place. and the vent is after wards closed, all in one series of op- erattons. without touching the hand. As the cans pass from the Capping ma chine they are submerged in bath of boiling water to test for leaks.
 Live Steam Cooking.
 After capptng. the cans are placed in large iron baskets or buggies and run into the retort. where they are submerged in boiling water, the de gree of temperature required being produced by turning live steam into the water and by closing the retort until the desired temperature is reached.
 In many plants long retorts or vats are provided, and the fruits are run through on autoEnatic conveyors at speed fixed to correspond with the time necessary to steriltze the particu- lar product handled.
 When the cans emerge from the heating retort they are plunged irto bath of cold water to quickly cool them, for otherwise they would be- come overcooked and soft

ed to expedite the handling of the veg of cleansing and preparation for the tins. Conveyor belts and gravity con yeyors are installed in all departments to transport the material from the time 1t reaches the cannery until the finished cans are piled in the cooling room. Similar moving belts pass along the preparation tables and car " the goods from one department to another.
 Huch Machinery Used.
 In many instances the food being canned is handled entirely by machia- cry, the human hand nowhere coming in contact with the product during the entire operation.
 Vegetables or fruits are cleansed by being carried through sprays, or by being immersed in hot or cold water. Machines sort the material passing through them either by size or weight, and all the attendants have to do is 10 watch the material going through and pick out by hand any defective or un- wholesome material. Where it is neces- sary to handle the food by hand, the workers ordinarily wear rubber or cotton gloves.
 The basic principle of canning is sterilization, to destroy whatever germs are present. and to insure their
