HOW CANNED FRUIT SPOILS
In canned goods there are two kinds
of spoilage. . The first is called "flat
sour" which- includes all forms .ofbac-
terial growth that develop within the.
food. The second type of spoilage
to guard against is mould, , a plant
growth that is distinctly different
from the bacterial' growth. ¥ ouldcd
foods are seldom more than surface
affected because air is, necessary fur
its growth but the "flat sour' speilae'e
means that the' entire can must be
discarded. Bulletin No. 93 of the
Dominion Experimental Farms,--"Prc-
servvation of Fruits and' Vegetables
for Horne Use" which may be had on
application -to the Publications Branch
Department of Agriculture, Ottawa
gives full information on Of var-
ioua method,- . of -canning including
old and valuable. Canning has become
the most popular means of preserving
large quantities of fruit and vege-
tables and since the:.., are plentiful
during the summer months and at
other times difficulty to obtain it
is important to preserve quantities
during the growing season for use in
Winter. Moreover the use of an
abundant supply of fruirt and green
vegetables is essential to health at all
seasons of the wear.
