Why is this when smaller cans are rationed? A. --These peaches in 105 -ounce tins -were packed by canners largely for the use of restaurants or public eating places. When the= -supply' is greater than the demand some are sold to re- tail outlets. However, they require so much sugar that few households 'can use them efficiently. The small cans are rationed to protect diabetics who cannot have sweetened foods. Q.—I paid' 23nee is a pound for shortening. Is this price too 'high? A.—The price does seem high.
