Community Cannery Patronized By
Both Local People and Visitors
The Community Cannery official
ly closed for the vegetable season
last week. During the eight-weeks
period of operation there were 20,
000 cans of fruits, vegetables and
meats processed which included
four beeves and two hogs.
Approximately 150 families us
ed the facilities and 226 people
were given organized, systematic
instructions in canning. Those who
were enrolled in the organized
class held in practical conservation
of food were given 3,536 hours of
instruction. This does not include
preliminary instructions given to
groups before the cannery was
opened.
The products canned in the local
unit are distributed not only
through Haywood county, but
around the world, since cookies and
candies sealed at the cannery went
to the South Pacific, England, Italy
and foreign points almost unknown
locally. The latter were not con
sidered in the count of preserved
foods.
In addition to the families can
ning a corps of workers canned
thousands of cans of fruits and
vegetables for the school lunch
rooms in this district and the Beth
el school district.
There are a number of people
who will wish to use the cannery
for processing meats and apples,
later, according to J. C Brown,
manager of the program. In such
cases it will be necessary for those
who wish to can to file their appli
cations at an early date, not neces
sarily the exact date on which can
ning would be done, but the inten
tion to can and the approximate
head of animals or bushels of ap
ples to be canned. Without this
information in hand those in charge
of the work do not plan to open
the cannery during the winter.
Anyone wishing to use the can
nery should make application for
the facilities with J. C. Brown, local
supervisor War Food Production
Training.
The season just clostd has shown
the need for those canning to have
m-pliminarv instructions on pre-
f
paration of the products and at
least one demonstration in the use ,
of equipment before actually can
ning, it was learned from Mr.
Rrnwn. If there is sufficient de-1
maud for this type of training a
period of instruction will be orga
nized in each community.
Among those assisting Mr.
Blown in the operation of the can
nery were: Mrs. Rufus Siler, Hay
wood County school lunchroom sup
ervisor, and Mrs. Herbert L. Buch
anan, Jr., Home Economics teacher
in the Waynesville Township high
school.
