From the Sea of Galilee can be seen the peaks of Mout Carmel, noted 'as the theatre of the contest between Elijah and the priests of Baal. Farther north on the Medi- terranean coast are the sites of the Old Testament cities of Tyre and Sidon, inhabited by the Phenicians, a Semitic race like the Israelites, The Town of Nazareth.

Canning Was invented by a Fiench- man a Century Ago. It is only a little more than a hun- dred years since the fruit-jar came in- i to use and now it would be hard to, place one's finger on a spot where it is | not in common use. In the olden days the way to keep fruit and vegetables wag to dry thea" put them away in sugar or salt. ' With the canning fever at its height at présent it is interesting to note that the invention of cafining is credited to | Nicholas Appert,-a Frenchman, who ilived 'im the time of Napoleon Bona- | | parte and was given 12,000 francs by | the Emperor for his work. His method | was to put the food to be presefved in glass jars, set them in boiling water, heat thoroughly and then seal. Eng- utilized it for her own purposes. About L1815 Ezra Daggert introduced in the United States the process for canning salmon, lobsters and oysters. Gradual ly this extended to pickles, jellies and sauces. 4 And now? { ~ Well, everyone knows what canning is now! If Nicholas Appert were to come to life and to visit some of the busy community canning centres of the average kitchen in Canada on an August day, he would be surprised to | see what he had started. es clibitbmpninn Why the Crops Failed.
