Is our present day civil: ition epitomized in an ordinary tin n of preserved food? "The Canning Tra<le" thinks so. and re cent"' justified its opinion in a re nari Me editorial. ^ Under the head ing becoming World Wide this mag., ine said: Canning Foods Grew Rapidly '( nsidering how rapidly the cam t; of food products irrew in i ? United States, and in North A" < ca generally, and particularly taking into view the immense im por* - ice. convenience and palata l>i!it\ of the food in* cans, the won-! dcr - that other nations did not! foil* v our lead and install canning; as t -ir main food reserve. "O' ^t!rce. there hits alwavr !?ccn s ?-?nie canning done in all countries ?<! tht globe : the house of Appert, in France. for instance, continuing to this lay to produce canned foods. But ev-n this now famous house turns cut a quantity that would compare only with the fair-sized home-earning outfit in our country. And that remains largely true with the so-called commercial canneries of France. Germany. Sweden, Nor wav arid Spain, though the fish fan ners in the north and the Italian ca?nor^ have reached a production which entitles them to exception. 5Rut since the creat war. and the prominent part canned foods plaved 't. even a< thev did in our Civil V-.- ^nd wMct. mifle the canning ;pd"?trv in \mori?\i. the canning of food* crrown in all countries of the globe, and there is an immense amount of interest shown everywhere and a desire to know more about the business and how to conduct it. In other words, the whole world is now taking hold of canned foods, and we may expect to see it grow, even as it has urown in this country, though in no other country to the huge bulk it has assumed in our country. ?"England has boon the latest to show a definite drift towards the establishment of the canning in dustry as a means i>f saving surplus food crops, and in her character istic, thorough manner has gone to the bottom - f the matter and i* building up. slowly but steadily and well. Following the efforts to sol | idify the industry in the home ' country, we may expect to see hrr CnlntflW hl-c yr? t|i?* procedure and to build the whole into a worth while and prominent industry. (The editorial explains here that Canada has always been reckoned with us in the development of the canning industry.) "There is nothing surprising in this awakening of the world to the value and importance of the canned foods industry, because it was bound to come. We have ions claimed, and without fear of suc cessful contradiction, we believe, that the great advancement of the world is due to the discovery and introduction of the method of pre serving food by canning. "It may be a mere coincindence, but it is. nevertheless, the fact that not until mankind dis covered this means of making sure a steady supply of nutritious f<* ?and which only canning ntS possible ? propria was halting ? slow.
