PROMPTLY CAN FRESH
VEGETABLE OR FRUIT
If Permitted to Stand, Bacteria
Have Chance to Multiply.
Product Which Is UnduIy Soft, Over

Wthered or Bruised, Should
Be Carefully Discarded.

prepared by the United States Department
of Agricultural
Many of the bacteria which form
heat-resiStant spores are found in the
soil, and thus are quite likely to occur
upon the surface of fruits and vege-
tables. If these products stand for
some days, or even hours, after being
picked, the United States Department
of Agriculture finds that certain bac-
terra will have a chance to multiply,
which they did not have while the
fruits or vegetables were growing in
the field, garden, or orchard. When
packed or piled together, the vegetable
or fruit mass may heat in the. center,
even if stored in a comparatively cool
place. Thus these bacteria will be
supplied with all the conditions that
most favor their rapid Development
warmth, moisture, darkness, and an
abundant food supply. The result is
rapid growth and development of sew
eral new crops of bacteria. Evidently
then, our chances of success in the
effort to kill all the bacteria and their
spores in the canning process will be
much less than if the perfectly fresh
vegetables or fruit had been promptly
canned.
For similar reasons, no fruit or veg
etable which is unduly soft, over-ripe,
partly moldy or decayed, withered. or
bruised. should be canned. Most of
these conditions mean that there is
already present an unusually large
number of those heterogeneous which
have caused or aggravated the unde-
sirable condition of the fruit or yege-
table In case of bruising or oversoft-
ness, the injured or dying plant tissues
have very low resistance to bacterial
attacks, consequently the bacteria
grow much more rapidly than would
otherwise be possible.
There is another reason why speed
is imperative when handling THESE
perishable products. There are pres
ent in. all plant, as well as animal It's
sues, certain substances called
engines, which have power TO pro-
duce very great changes in the It's
sues. independently of the changes
wrought by the growth of bacteria.
The apple, as it ripens, becomes less

of the sugar, so that the "deadripe''
apple is no longer as sweet as it was.
Equally important changes of one sort
or another take place in all fruits and
vegetables during ripening.
In some actively growing products,
such as young green peas, asparagus,
and sweet corn, these engines work
with exceeding rapidity, and sweetness
is lost with each succeeding hour that
passes after they are gathered.

Gambling BY Housewife.
Testing eggs by Gambling, as it is
called, may not only be used by the
housewife in obtaining fresh eggs for
her table but has also proved to be
commercially practicable in preventing
loss by separating for local consump-
ton, eggs, that, because of cracks,
wetness, incipient spoilage and other
defects, are likely to spoil in ship
ment Such eggs are suitable for inn
mediate use but will not stand ship
ping.
Gambling Saves Charges.
Gambling as near as possible to
source of production will not only save
transportation and storage charges for
the farmers who wish to buy and sell
on an accurate quality basis but will
prevent the loss of a valuable food
product. This method of conservation
was tried out during the World war
and the results have been so crafty
ing that many states have made it
permanent feature of their food-con-
troll work.

Death Of Commodore Downs

Robert A. Downs, age 81, famil-
iarly known as "Commodore''
Downs, a pioneer in Rathdrum
vicinity, died Thursday of last
week at his houseboat on Pack
river, east of Standpoint, where he
had lived most of the time since
leaving here about eleven years
ago. The body has been shipped
from Standpoint to Rathdrum for
burial today.
The commodore" was a soldier
in the Civil war and was wounded
in action. He was a participant
in early day steamboating on Pend
d'Oreille lake and at various times
owned land on upper Twin lakes
and near Little Round mountain,
north of Ramsey. At his home
stead on Twin lakes, he once made
a private sturgeon pond but high
water washed it out and the fish
escaped into the lake. He is said
to have left an estate valued at
$40, 600. He was a bachelor. One
