And women have the satisfaction
OF knowing, too, that they have a

foods are selected at just the right
point OF ripeness or other condition
that makes them best for eating.
And then. being cooked or prepared
within the can, they retain all the
nutritive value and delicious flavor
OF the fresh product. Indeed, there
are conditions surrounding the mar
keting OF many fresh foods that
necessarily make them inferior to
the canned.
The wholesomeness OF canned
foods--scientihcal prepared under
conditions OF the most scrupulous
sanitation-has long been recog-
nized There Is perhaps no more
emphatic evidence OF this than the

National Canned Foods Week.
which is being observed throughout
the country this week and until
March s. under the auspices OF can
ners. food brokers. jobbers. retailers
and allied organizations. may seem
somewhat like painting the N.Y.
With most OF us. every week is can
ned foods week The less spectacu-
lar, the science OF canning was dis
covery only equalled in Importance
by such inventions as the telephone,
the wireless and the aeroplane.
Pickling or drying we're the only
methods Of preserving foods that
were known up until about century
ago. In 1895 the necessities OF war
prompted the French Government to
offer a reward OF $4,000 francs for a
better method OF food preservation.
The prize was awarded TO Nicholas
Appert and his method stands today
as the real basis OF our present pro-
cess Of anning-namely hermetic
sealing and sterilization by heat.
This discovery has added immeas-
urably to the wealth OF the world
because II mas meant AAtnA ~ NAhA'N
OF harvest the surplus crops, which
il il impossible 20 get 10 market be-
fore they spoil. have not had to go to
waste. but have been preserved for
use at other periods OF the year
when Nature is producing less and
when. but for the science OF canning
we would have 70 subsist on much
less attractive fare. This is conser-
walton in the broadest and most
economic sense OF the word.
But the process OF canning not
only benefits the world at large: It
has very definite advantages for each

means Of protection could be adopt

but canned foods.
Even after years OF usage there
are still many who do not fully ap-
preciate the Infinite possibilities OF
canned foods. II Is for education
along these lines that Canned Foods
Week was instituted and grocers
throughout the country are now dis
