CANNED GOODS WHOLESOME

CANNED FOODS WHOLESOME
The title Of Canned Foods" is
generally restricted to foods put up
in tin cans and sterilized by heat
ing. The object in all kinds Of can
ming is the same, that is, to kill all
microorganisms started, and then
by the exclusion of all air to pre-
vent any new ones from gaining
entrance. Microoroanisms speedily
render any food unfit for consump-
ton because they induce fermenta-
ton.
There are many varieties of
canned foods on the market. All
kinds Of food, including fish, poultry,
meat, vegetables, fruit, etc, are put
up in cans, and the United States
stands today as the foremost ex-
ponent of canned goods, the output
Of this country being considerably
greater than the total of all other
parts of the world combined.
The first method of canning was
a process invented by Frenchman
named Francois Apperp, a little
more than a hundred years ago, and
has been improved and amplified
by modern mechanical devices and
equipment. In this country the cam
ming Of all kinds Of foods developed
very rapidly during the Civil war
period. The industry has gradually
expanded because Of the need Of
a greater conservation Of vegetables
and perishable goods of every kind.
Today our canneries serve the need
largely as community kitcnens in
which all the rough and dirty work
Of preparing vast quantities Of food
is done for the convenience and
nourishment of innumerable house,
holds. Thousands of acres of fruit,
grain, and vegetable land, and great
herds Of cows, and fisheries, are
dedicated to their service.
The details in cannery methods
vary with different foods. Some
foods are placed in the cans in a
raw condition, and others are first
blanched or parboiled ,as with as
paragus, beans, and peas.
The time required to insure stcril-
ization varies. With some vege-
tables, those of a tougher texture
require longer time for the full
heat to penetrate to the center of
the can; also. because of their pc
culiar composition. some foods need
very long processing.
As long as fresh, sound foods are
used, if sterilization has been COM
plete and If the cans are very tight,
the contents, whether meat, vege-
tables or fruit, will be of equal nu-
tritive value to those cooked in the
household. Some dietitians argue
that the vitamin content is lowered
by food standing in can for
months before it is used, but there
is no evidence to show that this
decrease is very great.
Some Of the best canned foods to
use are: spinach, asparagus, string
beans, corn, French artichokes

On the other hand, the man who

SWEET strong advocate Of state
rights and perhaps the greatest
vote-getter in the history of Mary
land.
He is the only man who has ever
served more than one term as gov
ernor, in the long history of that
state. He was first elected governor
in 1919 by a bare majority of 1865
votes, reelected in 1923 by a ma
jority of 41,000 and reelected again
in 1927 by a majority of 81, 1000.
He entered politics as deputy
city solicitor at Baltimore, then be-
came peoples counsel for the Mary
land Public Service Commission,
was next attorney general of the
state and finally became governor.
Gov. Richie views prohibition en-
forcement as failure, with the ex-
PLANTATION that the mass of the peo-
pie do not want prohibition, and as
sails the federal dry law as an in
vasion Of state rights. He thinks
every state should be permitted to
decide the question for itself.
Maryland is one Of the four states
that have no state prohibition law
and it offers no aid to federal au-
thorities in this respect. Richie
takes the position that it is a gov
eminent law and therefore it is up
to the government to enforce it
if it can. He is "wet," he ad-
mits it and offers no bunk about
"the sacred duty to uphold the Con.
stitution."

think it is wonderful. VIII you
please tell me what causes the iee!-
ing as if there is a lump IN ones
throat? NY doctor tells me It Is
nervousness. The ten years | have
had this trouble have been terrible
to me"
Answer: The nervousness you are
suffering from and the lump in
YOUR throat are doubtless caused
bv some form of thyroid deiangc-
ment, perhaps a small goitre. An
other cause of a choking fe. ling in
the throat comes from pelvic ais
orders, such as metritis, cntc'jtls,
or from rectal trouble.
Question: r. j. asks: "When
fasting on orange juice can one
drink, during the day, water in
which vegetables have been
cooked ="
Answer: If you wish to take the
vegetable Juice diet you should not
do so while taking the orange juice.
You might try the vegetable juice
one day and the orange Juice the
next.
Question: Mrs. B. asks: "Will
you please tell me the food elements
cf relatin?"
Answer: Gelatin is form of pro-
tein. very beneficial to the boay as
a food. Those in health will find
it advantageous to include it in the
diet quite often, and it is tremen-
dously helpful to those inclined to
nose-bleed, on account Of it's blood
coagulating powers.
Question:: X. l.. writes: II have

can do for a thin face except
through increasing the circulation

to make a "shapelier' face. This
applies to the fat as well as the thin

LETTER &M

The Franklin Institute, holding
that the modern movie wouldn't
have been possible without Jenkins
protector, voted him a medal as the
movies creator. Jenkins apparent
~ gave the first large screen movie
shows. He says that the so-called
Edison vitascope was exhibited un-
der the name phantoscope in At
lanta in 1895.
The Jenkins Edison feud only
dates back 30 or 40 years.
The Edison Berliner feud dates
back at least at 1873, when Berliner
filed caveat on ricrophone with
the Patent Office and Edison fol-
lowed him Is days later with ap-
plication for patent on trans
mitter designed to get the same eff
feet, but which the Berliner faction
says didn't work.
Mrs. Leslie shows a letter from
a president of the American Tele-
phone and Telegraph Co. recog-
nizing Berliner as the first and
original" inventor of the micro
phone and the first to associate the
induction coil will. the contact
transmitter-two indispensables in
telephony and radio broadcasting.
Berliner patented the gramophone
in 1857, a machine both vibrating
and propelling the needle. This,
he says, is the present Victor talk
ing machine. Edison had taken out
a previous patent on a tinfoil cylin-
der photograph, but Berliner says
he invented the modern disc talk
ing machine and the process of
making unlimited numbers Of extact
copies from one master record. In
1897 the Franklin Institute award
ed Berliner a medal for his gramo-
phone, but on Edison's 18th birth
day he accepted from his employees
a dorado Taft statue called "Or-
pheus Discovering the Gramophone
Record" which depicted Orpheus
holding aloft a disc record. Mrs.
Leslie, protesting to Congressman
Perkins, charged that Edison in
vented "only the absolutely value
less tinfoil monograph"
Berliner was associated with the
Bell Laboratories in their pioneer
days.
