They will ferment, decay, putrify or become maldy. These changes are brought about by. the development of bacteria, yeasts and molds on or in the food. "If these micro-organisms can be prevented from growing on or in the food it wills not spoil. Therefore, the question of. food preservation resolves itself into the problem of preventing these bac- teria, yeasts and molds from growing or multiplying on. or in' the foods. ing to the nature of the food to be preserved. Overheating c or frocging will usual- ly kill the living tissue of which the roots are composed, after which they will readily decay as a result of the rapid multiplication of bacteria and molds in the dead tissue. In the preservation of such vege- tables as green peas, beans, asparagus and green corn different measures are necessary. These are green and. Juicy and 'if stored in the fresh A dition they will either wilt or ferment and rot. This fermentation and rot- ting is due to the development of the bacteria which are present on the vegetables. There will be snfficient moisture present in the mass to en- able the bacteria to multiply and feed on the material and thus induce the rot. So in order to preserve such vege- tables in the fresh condition the bac- J teria present have to be all killed and all other bacteria prevented from get- ting on the material until it ig to be used. In order to accomplish thig the process of canning is resorted to. To get satisfactory results from canning vegetables it is necessary to have: 1st. Good sound healthy vege- tables. ; . 2nd. Good clean sealers with tight- fitting tops and good rubbers. 8rd. Wash the vegetables and fill Into the sealers. 4th. Cover with water salted to taste. : 5th. Put on the tops and léave slightly loose. boiler half filled with cold watereand heat to the boiling point for half an hour. 7th. Remove sealers from boiler or steamer and tighten down the tops. . 8th. After 24 hours loosen the tops and return to the boiler or steamer and give another half hour's boiling. 9th. Repeat this process after. an- other 24 hours. Then tighten Gown the tops and place away. This treatment should Hoste ll" 'Jmicro-organisms pres ent and if the top is hermetically sealed no others - opened. - 4 Another method of sterilizing is vg fcive one boiling to the filled sealers for 3-4 hours. This, however, cannot be depended on to give as satisfactory results as the above, Another method is to heat in steam under 15 lbs. pressure for thirty nmin- utes. This is the commercial way tor which special strong steamers (aXtoclaves), that ean withstand in- ternal pressure, are 'necessary. SA small vessel of this type suitable for household use is now on the market. Another ~ method of preserving- vegetables is by drying them in spe-. cial ovens. This drying process ex- tracts sufficient moisture from the vegetables to prevent the bacteria present from having the power to multiply unless the materials should get moist before being used. If suf- ficient. moisture' is not extracted or ceived-for three School Trustees { should the dried materials get moist during storage, then decay or rot will rapidly develop, as the bacteria are not killed in the drying process 'and only require moisture to enable them to develop.

ANDERSON | iy Clerk Clerks Office, Dryden, ) 16 In the storing of such fr apples and pears it is essetnial: 1. To have only sound specimens. 2. To Pack carefully - without bruising. ! 3. To store in a cool, well-ventilat- il ed place where they will neither be if overheated or frozen. Such fruits as strawberries, rasp- berries, plums, peaches, currants, blueberries, ete., which are soft, can- not be kept any length of time with-- out fermenting or molding unless they are canned. .The canning process is simply for the purpose of killing all mold spores and yeast cells that are on the fruit and preventing others getting on un- til the material is to be used. "Canning fruits is not so difficult as canning vegetabiss because it is eas- iex to kill yeasts and 'molds which that: affect vegetables. The se fruits may be cooked 'in a fruit kettle, sugar added to taste, and {filled hot direct from: the kettle into Y sterilized sealers removed dir ect from scalding water. ; Another way to preserve. such fruits is by the cold pack method. In this method the fruits are not cooked before putting into the sealer. Sound fruit not overripe should be used. This is picked over and filled directly into clean sealers. Stone fruit should. /be pifted. CA sy1p of sugar and water sweet- enad to taste is then filled into sealers so as to cor. vletely er the fruit.
