What Is A Tin Can?
CTTHE oldest riddle the writer
Vik knows is : "When is a door not
a dec:?" And the answer is:
"When it's ajar." One might ask
the same kind of conundrum about
a tin can because a tin can is not
really a tin can at all, but simply a
steel boiler with a tin coating.
Tin cans are made of tin plate,
and tin plate consists of about 98
per .cent iron and 2 per cent tin.
Bessemer steel or open-hearth steel
of the highest grade and very low
in carbon is used for its manufac
ture. It is rolled into flat sheets,
then coated with tin, and finally
shaped into tin cans.
Every Element Safe
There is nothing in the composi
tion of a tin can which is detri
mental to human health. The tin
coating of a can is never perfect,
but the tiny amounts of tin or iron
which get into canned foods in solu
tion have absolutely no ill effects.
America's foremost scientists who
have been testing canned foods in
every conceivable way for many
years are sponsors for die truth of
this statement The interiors of
cans of many kinds of foods are
coated with a special gold enamel,
but this is not a health measure
but merely a means to insure better
appearance. Highly colored fruits
and beets bleach in plain tin cans,
but retain their color in enamel
lined cans. The old superstition
that food should not be stored in
open cans has long since been re
duced to the level of a myth.

To the housewife, therefore, this
tasty tuber Is a boon and a bless
ing when she is at her wits' end
for a dish that will go with the
roast, steak or cutlets, and that
will escape scathing comments
from the family regarding her al
leged habit of feeding them on the
same old things on an unvarying
schedule. So far as food value is
concerned, the sweet potato excels
the white variety, due to Its sugar
content.

Sympathy is all right in its place,

Some people waste a lot of energy
