A man who is fond of motoring has hit upon a solution of this problem which is simple in the extreme. He merely puts, some cans of grapefruit Juice, tomato juice, orange juice or sauerkraut juice in one of those wide- mouthed gallon thermos jugs, drops some ice in on top of them. and makes sure that he has a good can-opener along. Even when his supplies of canned juices are exhausted, the Ice will serve to chill water or whatever he elects to drink. A Satisfying Drink Or if a man, or his wife, cares to go to a little more trouble he can fill his thermos container before starting with a satisfying drink like this: Sparkling Tomato Beverage: Add the juice of one lemon, one tablespoon sugar and salt to taste to the contents of two 10-ounce cans tomato Juice, and have very cold. Add one-half pint Ice cold white rock and seal up tight in the thermos container. 'Hiis re cipe makes six cups.* '■ >3^ From $2500 to $1,060,000,000 T HE recent announcement of no doubt can be entertained ot the death in Paris of M. Ray- i the success of such process. As mond Chevaliier-Appert, of the fourth generation of the family since Nicolas Appert in vented the process of canning in 1S09 brings to mind the fact that all the inventor got for his trou ble was approximately $2,500, while the canned foods and allied industries in this country are now rated in the billion dollar class.. It was on the .‘»0th of January, 1X10, that Count Montaliyet, Na tive preservation of animal and vegetable substances may be of the utmost utility in Sea-voyages in hospitals and domestic econ omy, I deem your discovery worthy of an especial mark of the good will of the Government. I have In consequence acceded to the recommendation made me by my council to grant you a recom pense of 12,000 francs.” This sum was equivalent at that time to about $2,5<XV and poieon’s Minister of the Interior. T’ount Montallvet must have been wrote to M. Appert: a far-sighted minister. He asked "My Hoard of Arts and Manu- Appert to spread the knowledge facturers has reported to me, Sir, of the process by writing a de- the examination it has made of tailed and exact description of it, your process for the preservation and to send him two hundred copies of the book as the only condition of the award.* of fruits, vegetables, meat, soup, uilk, etc., and from that report Facts A bout Foods T 1 HERE are still a Tew Hif modern people who fear to leave canned food in the can after it is opened. Most people know that there can be no safer container but. for the benefit of those unmodern few, we are quot ing the positive statement on this subject which E. V. McCollum, 1‘h.D., Sc.D., of Johns Hopkins Fniversity. made not long since in an article in McCall’s Maga zine “In general,” he wrote, “foods remain in better condition until eaten if the unused portion is kept in th£S<in. Spoilage results from exposure to thist. air and insects, and to the bacteria with which any dish may be covered. There is nothing about the can which will contribute to the spoilage of food.” If any other evidence tha&thia statement by such an eminent^ food authbHty^werfPiieetted^AheF^— T is that of Dr. J. C. Geiger, for merly epidemiologist of the Uni ted Statc\s Public Health Service, and later\Assistant Commissioner of Health in Chicago, now Di rector of Public Health of San Francisco. ». An Unfounded Fear “It must be remembered,” he said, “that the inside of the con tainer has been sterilized at the same time as the food it contains and that the dish into which the _ food is poured is frequently noD so sterile as the can itself. 4.; the fear is founded on the belief that the tin lining of the can be comes corroded and yields poisons which may attack the system, it is a fear that is without substan tiation by any scientific evi dence.”* be ctnclusive theieof.
