Chamber or not, will help to make the
ocCa sion success.

FACTORY FOODS BIG BUSINESS

To emphasize the need of food
control laws, the United States De-
partment of Agriculture calls atten-
ton to the great growth of food
preparation in factories. Not many
decades ago much of the food con-
sumed was prepared in the home or
obtained in the immediate neighbor-
hood, and since the consumer knew
about the conditions of its preparation
there was little need for food laws.
Today much of the food is produced
and prepared long way from those
who consume it, and as a consequence
some sort of government control is
necessary.
The great volume of commerce in
foods is indicated in the last census
report, for 1919, which shows that
the food-manufacturing industry as a
whole is more than four times larger
in value than the next largest manu-
featuring industry, which is iron and
steel. Meat packing alone represents
a greater value. The total value of
manufactured food products for 1918
was 1891, 914, 900, while automO-
