slider what is hers at so cheap a price
as to be had almost for the asking.
Through the establishment of Gamer
les on the very spot where the fruit
or vegetable is grown, the best, the
choicest and the freshest are, through
sanitary and efficient means, conserved
for her use. The methods employed
in our modern canneries are passed
upon and endorsed by health experts
and authorities. In fact the sanitary
hazards of the average kitchen are
found to be far greater than those
of the canneries, so meticulous is the
handling of these prepared foods.
In the United States, there are
available to the housewife at a mo-
ment's notice more than two hundred
varieties of fruits, vegetables, meat
and hsh-a number, which should
preclude any worry over "what to
eat" except possibly the dilemma
caused by trying to make a choice.
Surely this variety of the best which
our resourceful country produces,
should eliminate much worry over the
selection of something different" with
which to tempt the family palate. All
of these foods require only heating
-incalculable time savers. Modern
life is so strenuous that the housewife
welcomes whatever helps her.

Time and Space AnnihiIated

The food value of canned foods is
fully equal that of the fresh. In fact
the authorities have gone beyond this
point and state that in many respects
the canned article is superior. Canned
foods are easier to digest hecausa

zdE convenience of modern living
w we Americans are apt to take ale
together too much for granted.
We of this generation have always
know the joys of electricity, the con-
vcEience of gas for cooking and NUM-
beriess other boons, and we hardly
s4cognize the fact that Europe trails
far behind us in many of these mat
leTs. Not the least of the comforts
Of this era, and one the importance of
which can hardly be overestimated-
b the conservation of our choicest
foods, by the perfecting of canning
processes.
In this respect, we are leagues ahead
bf the European countries. In all
ways life is more simple over there
md yet-though this may seem para
loxical-much less convenient. To
begin with, they have not the vast
iesources that we possess, especially
n variety of seasonable foods, and the
Very fact that there is no quantity
production over there precludes the
possibility of their attaining the vol
Ime and perfection in the canning of
fruits, vegetables, meats and fish,
thich we enjoy in the United States.
n Europe canning is done mostly 5y
primitive hand methods, they have not
Ndr huge modern plants, and their
aimed foods are scarce and expensive.
