always have out of season staples like

many out of season delicacies as well.
In the further development of the
food packing industry, Governor Nc
Cray sees an opportunity for the
farmer to profit, because OF a fixed
price for those of his crops that are
contracted for in advance, and living
prices to farmers are essential to the
return of national prosperity.
The food packing industry OF In
diana Is firmly established and as
Governor McCray points out, has
aided largely the industrial suprem-
acy of the state. Indiana is among
the leading states in the value of its
canned food Observation-Disclosures.
The Richmond palladium and sun-telegram. [volume] (Richmond, Ind.) 1907-1939, 1922-02-28
March I to 8 is Canned Goods
Week Throughout the State

In the opinion Of Governor McCray,
the canning industry has contributed
largely to the Industrial development
OF this country, for without the pre-
servation and prompt transportation
OF food products, city life would be
impossible.
With over half our population liv-
ing In cities and being dependent for
existence largely upon the rural popu-
latfon, 1t is plain that we would all
starve without there were adequate
means for the storage of food pro-
ducts over the winter season
The canning industry takes up this
between season slack more than any
other, and permits every one to enjoy
good food, properly prepared, at prices
