Since predujice against the
use OF canned foods has been
removed, the question of the
nutrltive value of the canned
as compared with that of fresh
foods frequently arises. 1t is
the commercial and not the
home canning which is being
questioned and particularly
the vegetables. First, we must
understand that commercially
canned foods are cooked food
so their comparison with fresh
vegetables must be on the ba-
sis Of the cooked fresh vegeta-
bles, not the raw.
The variety of vegetable,
length of time between pick
ing and canning, and whether
the vegetable contains an ap-
prec1able amount of acids or
not are some important fact
ors affecting the nutritive va
lue OF the canned product. The
blanching time and tempera-
ture when canning are added
factors, which may effect the
passage of mineral and the
water soluble vitamins into
the liquid resulting in a dis
trlbution Of nutrients between
the solid and liquid portion.
This is a good reason for using
the liquid OF canned goods and
not pouring it down the rdain.
1t has good food value.
The canning industries make
every effort from research to
control the variables and re-
duce the errors. AS a result.
canned goods retain a large
part of the original value of
the fresh food. It is just as safe
to keep canned foods in the
can they come in, as it is to
empty the food into another
container. Many persons are
still Of firm belief that canned
foods ought to be emptied as
soon as the can is opened, or
least before the remainder Of
the foods goes into the refrige-
rator. This is one Of the persis-
tent food fallacies.

staff here indicates.
The volume of all world
trade was going up in the first
half of 1949, the report, emit
tied Recent Developments
in the World Economic Situa-
tion," declares. But the in
crease in trade largely results
from higher exports from the
United States, while the rest
of the world barely maintain
ed its level of last year. At the
same time, a slower economic
pace in the United States re
duced the volume of goods it
purchased from the rest Of the
world.
Economists explain tn t
since the end of the war the
United States has held a key
position as supplier Of many
kinds manufactured goods and
foods essential to life. To pur-
chase suhc goods, the economist
point out, dollars are neces-
sary, but with reduced imports
by the United States even few
er dollars are available.
Affected most seriously by
the shifting pattern of trade,
the U. N. report declares, have
been the sterling area coun-
tries and especially the United
Kingdom, where exports fell
short of plans.

dom exports is in part the re-

often battles friends and relatives.
Usually the gift turns out to be
another bit Of jewelry. more rec
ords, more books. and the young
person adds them to his store and
goes on as he was before.
These young people would be
happier. and they would have an
opportunity to find new interest
which might add to their abilities
as we'll as to their pleasures If
they were given something out Of
the usual run of such gifts. A
camera is fine gift for any young
person. It allows him to use
creative ability. 1t ,widens his in
terests and enriches his expert
ences with people and things. It
opens many, many doors to in
formation, to usefulness and
growth.
A good camera does not cost
too much for interested relatives
to buy. If few of them pooled
their gift money the cost would be
slight to each, and the young per-
son given something very much
worth while.
OF course, the gift should be
suited to the recipient. There are
odd boys and girls who do not
want cameras. There are other
things they can use and enjoy.
and profit from in many ways. A
typewriter is one of the finest
gifts a young person can get. It
is also one Of the most useful,
practical. helpful tools he can use
to enrich and expand his life's
experiences. Again, the family
can pool their resources if ,neces-
sary to buy such a gift.
Then there are the gifts that
start collections Of articles that
are or will be Of use to the chill
dren. Giving girl piece of good
china or glass on each anniver-
sary or special occasion so that in
days to come she will have a fine
set of china, silver or glass as the
case may be, is very much worth

while. Such collections become
heirlooms by and by, enriched by
associations. Boys could be en-
riched with gift bonds which will
come in very handy for college
expenses, for a start in business
for a nest-egg for marriage.
Little children enjoy toys. As
they grow older they enjoy toys
less and things they can use more
